Make your food and drinks. <\/b>Eating out for every meal and purchasing beers or cocktails can quickly add up. Pro travel tip: always pick a restaurant or two that you can\u2019t wait to try, then make the rest of <\/span>your vacation meals<\/a> at your beach condo or mountain cabin. Buy small portions of ingredients at a grocery store, and you could save hundreds of dollars per day on food and bevies.<\/span><\/p>\n

Look for free and low-cost activities.<\/b> You don\u2019t have to spend money<\/a> to <\/span>do something memorable<\/a>. Seek out activities like hiking, going to a nature reserve, or bird watching at the beach. Splurge on one or two more expensive to-dos, like renting a jet ski or a winery tour.<\/span><\/p>\n

Skip the souvenirs. <\/b>It can be hard not to buy a tchotchke from every location to remember your trip. Instead, take photos and videos of your time away! When you get home, print a few images and put them in a photo collage or edit a short video to remind you of your last minute adventure and share your memories with friends and family.<\/span><\/p>\n

Skip the rental car.<\/b> Wherever possible, take public transit or use <\/span>rentable bikes<\/a> to get around. This key travel tip allows you to avoid the stress of maneuvering a vehicle in a new place, and you can better see the sights when you\u2019re not behind the wheel. <\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
