travel cheaply

cheap Stay at home travel ideas

It’s a rough economy out there and the ones that change the way they spend money are the ones who will survive it without any trouble at all.

Here’s what I mean a one week all inclusive vacations for a couple is going to cost them at the cheapest (for a decent resort) around $2000 total for the both of them. This will include their airfare, hotel, meals, drinks and transfers.

The vacation is only going to last seven days. You’ll have to take at least 5 days off in a row if you work Monday to Friday. This will actually give you nine days away from work counting the weekends. If you stay at home and do things like grab a bed and breakfast, go camping or rent a small motor home you can actually be traveling for the 9 days for much less than $2000.

For the people out there that like camping you’re going to be the ones that save the most money. Perhaps you can back to your childhood and remember places that you haven’t been to in twenty years. How great would it be to head back there for a few days?    

Most campsites out there at the high and of the scale will only cost $30 with electricity for your tents. For those of you who have trucks borrow a friends canopy if you don’t already have one and throw an air mattress in the back. You have an instant mobile home.

This is the chance for you to go do all the things that are so much fun and you never have time to do. On day one make a bunch of food that you really like and keep the leftovers in the fridge. You’ll be glad you did and it’ll save time later on. Get together with some great friends and make blender drinks or get some cans of soft drink or even grave that bottle of wine you been waiting to drink, might as well drink it because you’ll be out wine tasting on day four and will buy another bottle.
