Three Ways to Save Money While Traveling Abroad

If you are thinking of taking yet another vacation with your family or friends, now is the time that you should start thinking about budgeting when it comes to your travel plans. These are days that all walks of life are affected by the economic crisis and so it is essential that you do a little wise spending even as you enjoy your trip. This holds true most especially when you are travelling abroad. Here are a few tips that will help you to save some of your money so that you don't end up coming home broke.

Book Early


Many people think that last minute deals are the best but in reality, even though some a beneficial, the best deals can be found when you get online. The holiday parks abroad have some great deals on summer breaks at the moment and families can bag themselves a bargain. By booking early you can also by more choosy in what you pick as you have time to make a decision instead of having to choose under pressure, this is likely to save you money in the long run. So, consider to finder the best deals to save you some money.

Look for different Accommodation options


When travelling abroad you make a point of choosing the right location. There are some excellent self-accommodation options available meaning you can shop for some ingredients beforehand or at a local shop and make your own food there. This is going to be a bit more difficult and parents may not want to cook on their family break but you can save some money by doing so, so it is just a matter of weighing up the pros and cons of cooking and saving money or eating out and paying more. It's up to you. When shopping for a good deal you need to use lots of different comparison sites. Do not just use the main ones as you will not get the best deals. I would recommend going on alternativewebsites.com to find some alternatives to the big comparison sites.

Budget travel


These days, it is actually more trendy and wise to plan your trip around routes that are cheaper to fly. This is the reason all kinds of budget airline companies are sprouting up here and there across the world.


These airlines may not offer the same services that major airlines do but you can be sure that they are just as safe to travel on and you will be saving a considerable amount of money just by riding on them. You also stand the chance at a great adventure because these budget airlines have slightly different routes than major airlines do. This means that you will be landing in more exotic areas than you expect. Look into budget airline companies today and check out just how much fun you can have for less than the original cost.

Knot Genie Review and Giveaway

If you have a little girl and have not heard of the Knot Genie then you need to watch the following video:   "The Knot Genie™ and Teeny Genie™ Detangling Brushes were created for every mom that has endured the foot stomping and screaming matches that come with brushing their child's hair. With the Knot Genie, even the curliest, most knotted up hair practically slips through the unique bristle configuration – gently and painlessly.

You've wished for hair brushing standoffs to end. Wish granted." My Review:  Thanks to the Knot Genie for sending me the product to conduct my review.  I was not paid for this review and all opinions expressed are 100% mine.  I know I have grown so tired of my daughter coming to tears every morning when we did her hair. I was becoming to think she was the most

Dry Idea: Deodorant Review and Giveaway

I know most of you know I was at kids camp last week and I think I mentioned the humidity and heat that we had that week!  I was daring as I only brought my new Dry Idea  deodorant  that I had never used prior.  I had no idea if it was going to keep me from smelling like B.O or if I was going to have sweaty pits.
