[…] the Stores offered tons of great money-saving tips and her ideas for saving money during holiday travel were right […]
Healthy Living, Smart Spending, Essential Oils
I can't think of an easier gift to give someone than a gift card. I love giving well thought-out presents...
Couch Surfing!
Carpooling with another family member, that way you can all chip in & save on the minor travel expenses, and then you even get someone to conversate with as well!
Buying our gas before the holiday hits, and driving our Hybrid car!!
Pack the kids’ backpacks full of snacks! This goes for traveling by plane or car. The more Airline food you purchase or fuel station snack stops you make the more money you waste. Both those options are Black Holes for your hard earned cash!
Bring along snacks, drink and lunch to save on eating out.
Bring food and only eat out one meal a day.
packing food for the car and hitting the grocery when we get to our destination and only eat out a couple of times.
we do the same thing, we always pack the car with carrots, veggie’s and fresh fruit. more filling and keeps us from stopping along the way.
Drinking water and eating our own snacks. We also make some of our travels into an “Einstein” vacation. You know, where everything is RELATIVE. LOL Staying one night (or two) with relatives along the way can be a great way to minimize expenses and maximize family memories. We are always careful, though, to be a blessing to whomever is kind enough to put us up for the night and we often travel with our own air mattress and linens. That way no one is put out of their own bed.
BTW, we never invite ourselves into someone’s home – we let them know we will be in town and they most often invite us to stay with them.
Plan ahead
camping & cookng rather than hotels & restaurants

We pack food and drinks for the road trip (which I buy when the children aren’t with me) and treat for each child, only stop to fuel up and potty breaks, then stay with family (no hotel costs!), and pitch in for groceries…
