Oh I am totally entering!

I may just be a bit of a weirdo, but I like to treat grocery stores and open air markets (especially in other countries) like museums. I love looking at all the unusual regional products. While I’m there I like to get food to make easy on the go meals, like sandwiches, etc.

Bring a tent. Most European countries have campsites that cost very little and are located close to necessary amenities.

Favorite tip for keeping travel costs down? Travel with a friend. Not only is it more fun to be exploring new things with someone else, but you can usually split the necessities like gas, food and lodging. It works on small trips: Going home for the weekend, your friend pays for the gas, you pay for the food (hopefully to be provided by mom and dad), and for big trips: three friends and I split one double room in Venice and paid a quarter of the price.

Sometimes my friends and I swap vacation rentals halfway through our rentals if we are staying with in a few hours from each others travel arrangments.

Ship ahead a box containing snack foods, boxes of cereal, pop-tarts, granola bars – anything your family loves. Saves cost of a meal or two and also saves from buying high priced snacks in convenience stores.

One of my favorite ways to keep travel costs down is to find a vacation rental: it’s cheaper than staying at the hotel, more comfortable (you’ve got a whole appartment! often a small one, but still!), and it comes with a fully equipped kitchen, so you can splurge on some nice restaurant meals while still saving on food expenses by cooking some of the other meals. Doesn’t get much better than that!
