Even after you’ve done all the bookings and confirmed each reservation, keeping the cost of travel low beyond flights and hotel rooms, requires a few more preparatory steps.

For the past 8 years, I have owned and rented out a property in the Branson, MO area. When I say ‘vacation rental’ I am talking about renting a condo, house or cabin directly from the owner or from the owner’s property manager. Don’t forget to look for savings on things besides the actual rent.

The Frugal Girl

NOVEMBER 13, 2023

Limiting waste is what really drives most of the habits I have that would qualify as “frugal” – reducing/eliminating food waste, returning unneeded items, pursuing refunds, checking on warranties, repairing things, etc. For me, being in the kitchen and making food for people is an act of love. Eat at grocery stores!

Amanda and Daniel wanted to travel and they realized that their debt was preventing them from seeing the world. She offered to do people’s taxes, or get their bookkeeping organized in exchange for a discount on her rent, or car repairs. She also prepared extra food to freeze for late days. That would keep you on budget!
