I know many of us are looking for ways to take our family on vacation without breaking the bank. A while back we posted some cheap vacation ideas, but I figured I would expand it a little bit and talk a little more about even more great vacation on the cheap ideas:
- Groupon Getaways. If you have never checked Groupon for a vacation deal, you are missing out. Last year I bought a 2 night stay in a super nice yurt on a beautiful lake for just $50 total! We had a blast and have since went back. Whenever we are going to head on vacation I check Groupon. Be sure to check for promo codes to save even more!
- Vegas. Did you know that Vegas is one of the cheapest tourist cities you can go to? Pay attention to the deals that you see cross your way and you can find round trip tickets for as low as $50 (depending on where you live of course), you can also get hotel discounts and even free dinners! The entire purpose of Vegas is gambling. The establishments want to get you in their doors so you will spend money at their machines, so they are willing to offer big deals. As long as you aren’t a big gambler, you will find that Vegas can be quite reasonable.
- Attend a timeshare presentation. Yes, I said it. No they aren’t fun, but hey, it’s only a couple of hours of your time that you can exchange for days of a vacation! My husband and I sat through a 90 presentation one time and got 3 days at an oceanside resort. The presenters can be pretty pushy though so if you are not in the market for a timeshare, do not sign the papers.
Do you have any great vacation ideas to share with us?
