The Vacation On A Shoe String Budget
If a family wants to vacation on a very strict budget, then they first have to throw out the old paradigm of luxury has to cost. There has to be a consideration to the phrase “you get what you pay for”, but lets add a little more “you get what you pay for with your time, money, and attention”.
The first mistake that vacation planners make is thinking that all the deals are published and the ones they see are the only ones they will be able to take advantage of. This is not true, there are always unpublished deals that are not available to the general public, but if they are part of their club, other deals are available.Is this new to you? Catch up here
Another mistake made by planners is in thinking that a vacation that a shorter vacation is a cheaper vacation. This is not always true. In fact, there are greater discounts and lower charges on most extended vacations and packages. This is especially true with theme parks and family friendly resorts.
A final mistake that is made is looking only at hotels or only at resorts. Both of these types of accommodations have advantages and disadvantages. If the stay is about being out on the town and seeing the city being visited, then a hotel is fine. If the visit is about the amenities at the accommodations, the resort gives a bigger bang for the buck.
