Start Budgeting Money for a Summer Trip

Your #budget will likely determine the length and scope of any #summer trip, so start budgeting — or saving — early. Often, the best way to save money is to see where the crowds are and head the opposite direction; tourist-targeted restaurants, for example, tend to have more expensive and less authentic food, so seek out places the locals eat. Use public transit whenever you can; it’s cheaper and more #sustainable than car rentals. Start planning early by setting “alerts that match your travel plans,” TravelPro recommends — and clear your browser ahead of each search to ensure that the algorithm doesn’t increase prices based on interests. #SummerVacation
