Travel and Your Money
- Book hotel and flight reservations simultaneously for extra discounts.
- If you regularly travel to the same place, make next year's reservation before you leave this because you may be eligible to get special rates.
- Book excursion and attraction packages through your hotel in order to get discount coupons and premium rates.
- If you're driving on vacation, track gas prices online before you leave. See our entry on Gas Savings Tips to find out how.
- Bring your ATM card so you don't have to carry as much cash with you, but don't forget to check your bank's website so find out where their ATMs are located so you don't get hit with fees.
- If there aren't any of your banks where you are visiting, American Express has come out with a travelers check card for more convenience.
- Bring snack foods with you so you don't have to spend as much on food throughout the trip. This is especially a good idea if you are traveling with kids.
- Finally, browse by state at valpak.com for discount coupons at your vacation destination.
