Here are ten examples of “instead of” options if you want to save money on travel:
- Choose to stay at economy hotels INSTEAD OF more expensive hotels. Better yet, choose to stay at hostels instead of hotels to save even more money.
- Opt to visit small local museums INSTEAD OF major museums or costly landmarks.
- Pack your own food or shop at grocery stores along the way INSTEAD OF spending the extra money to purchase meals at restaurants or fast food chains.
- Visit local swimming pools, watering holes and small creeks INSTEAD OF going to water parks to cool off with the kids while you are on vacation.
- Get library books before you leave to read while you’re on the road INSTEAD OF investing in video games, DVDs and other more expensive forms of road trip entertainment.
- Find out what types of festivals and events you can attend for free at your destination INSTEAD OF going to costly attractions or more expensive events.
- Look for deals and promotions INSTEAD OF paying full price. It’s always great if you can do exactly the kind of trip that you want to do but pay less for it because you took the time to look for a deal.
- Always pay cash INSTEAD OF using a credit card so you don’t accrue interest charges for your vacation costs. Better yet, use a cash back rewards credit card INSTEAD OF cash and pay it off immediately before any interest is added.
- Set a budget for your trip in advance INSTEAD OF trying to figure out after the trip how you’re going to make up for all that money that you spent while you were on vacation.
- Visit friends and family in smaller destination cities INSTEAD OF traveling to the more expensive hot spots.
