Q. Vacations can blow our budgets very quickly and sneak up on us at the same time. However, I am confident most of you have some frugal ideas for vacations and travel that would help us plan better and prepare better for them at the same time. I would sure enjoy hearing of those ideas.
A. All the categories of my budget suck up every cent I make (includes 401k & a liquid savings account). I just came back from a vacation so now the credit card is a bit higher. I'll pay it off by February, instead of December. But once that is done, I will have $250.00/month with which I can "play around." I already know I'm going to put a bigger chunk to the car payment, but will put at least $100.00 into a vacation fund. If plans go well, I will have $700.00 in August of next year and that might be going toward a backpacking trip (less expensive than a leisurely hotel experience for a week) in Colorado! My budget is solid enough so I will have emergency money along side of this vacation stash - Julieane
A. Have several friends that take trips to Rome, Egypt.or Caribbean Islands. They always take 1 or 2 bags of M&Ms or some simple treats. One women i know packed 1 suitcase with canned food/sodas for Caribbean trip.Why??? ... Get more ideas.
