Some money saving tips for travel.
 | New! Swap
houses/apartments with someone you know in a place you would like to
visit. Schedule vacations to coincide with theirs and exchange
residences. I do not recommend doing this with strangers.
- Most resort areas have an off season. Florida in October or
November is like the Northeast in the Summer. The rates for
hotels are way down that time of year.
- Camping can be cheap and fun, but you need to buy or borrow the equipment.
- Try checking out some bed and breakfast places.
- Get the local coupon books and travel brochures.
- Ask local people for info on the best places to eat reasonably.
- Eat at Diners or Family Restaurants. They can be cheaper
than fast food places, and the food's a lot better. Also
checkout supermarket deli's.
- You can get extremely good deals by seeing what's available at the
last minute. Check out this link: Save $59 on your next Last-Minute Getaway!
- Here's a deal from Orbitz.com JetBlue Matched by Major Airlines! Round-Trip from $104!
Travel between September 7 and December 15 in most markets
Note: Orbitz offers deal on airfare hotels, and car rentals.
- If you're a senior citizen ask for the discount at hotels,
restaurants, etc.
- *Even if you just look like a senior citizen you may be able to
get the discount.
- See if the place your visiting has a convention and visitors
bureau. Also check for sites about the area that offer
coupons.
- If you're driving pack a cooler with food and drinks (non
alcoholic, of course).
