Save on air fares by making arrangements ahead of time for special discounts.
You can also save on air fares by taking night flights.
If possible, vacation during the 'off season' when prices drop.
Eating away from home can be expensive. Travel with packaged snacks purchased from supermarkets along the way.
Discontinue newspaper deliveries while away from home.
Plan in advance. Take proper clothing along for the climate you will be experiencing so you won’t have to spend vacation money on new clothes.
If you select accommodations with cooking facilities, you will be able to save considerably on a major expense: food.
When sending picture postcards, use the correct postage.
Vacation on a budget...and STICK TO IT!
Buy 'practical' souvenirs that won’t end up at future garage sales.
When traveling with pets, take along a good supply of their favorite foods.
Enjoy picnic-style meals in public parks. Buy food at supermarkets.
Carry a small sewing kit for minor clothing repairs. Also spot remover.
Take advantage of the free tourist attractions in cities and tourist areas such as free gardens, museums, restored villages, monuments, etc.
Pack a small first aid kit and save on minor scrapes, cuts, bruises, etc.
Leave pets with friends instead of boarding them at kennels.
