Last I checked a 6' x 8' piece of lauhala matting was about $39.00 at Oceanic Arts. They also have a cheap thatch for about $10. Frame that baby with a couple of bamboo poles (approx $10.00 each), hang the thatch above it. You should have about $20 left after taxes - you can get a bottle of Appleton V/X (sorry, no mixers, you're broke dude) and sip while you stare at your artless tiki wall while you wait for another $100 to roll in.
