What are some tips to keep your home/apartment cool when you have no air conditioner?
 
Put up fans everywhere and open as many windows as possible to let in some of the breeze.
 
I've heard, as crazy as it sounds, to keep windows shut and blinds/curtains closed.
I think my grandmom used to do that. Thick drapes, the room stayed dark and cool, but fans too.

Lots of ice cubes and cold drinks

Many fans

Dark shades on windows during sun shining in

Blow cooler air IN at night and hot air OUT during the day

Ice packs

I've never had ac and we moved upstairs now so it might be a brutal summer ahead. Everyone stay safe and healthy in the elements.
 
Go to Wal-Mart and buy a really big fan until you can get your AC fixed. I have two fans in case this happens.
