When planning your next get away - be sure to always take the safe route with your finances and make sure that you save as much money as possible. That is why I would like to share this list of ways that you can vacation and have a good time but still be sure to have your dollar stretch the farthest that it can.

1) BYOB - Bring your own beer (or wine etc. etc.) can be a great way to not have to dip down deep in your pockets to have a nice dinner out. Ask around at local stores for any good places to eat that allow you to bring your own liquor in to drink.

2) Speak to your hotel! - This is very over looked. Usually local attractions will give coupons or special discount rates to local hotels to try and get their guests to come to them. Do not be shy ask - actually ransack the hotel brochure tray and anything that is interesting to you speak with the hotel desk clerk and see if they have any special deals on these places. Disney World is a great place to find all sorts of deals at your hotel for.

3) Find the public beaches - Every state usually has a few public beaches that are free for you to go onto and do not cost anything or require you to buy a beach badge. Usually you can find this information out by calling the county offices to where you are traveling.

4) Walk walk walk! - If you can find a hotel that is near all of the action then feel free to try and walk to where you want to go, not only will this save you money but it will also be a healthy alternative to driving! It can help you to loose some of the extra vacation pounds that you could put on.

5) Public Transportation - Find out where and when the buses or trains run! Again most vacation areas will tend to charge an arm and a leg for your car parking, by finding out the local ways to travel you can save on gas and on the parking fees.

Using a few of these tips has enabled me to save a lot of money when I go out on vacations. I am more then sure if you take these same steps and also try and think of your own it will make your vacation much more enjoyable and also give you a great amount of more money to spend on knick-knacks!
