The classic song from National Lampoon’s Vacation in your head now? Good.
It’s so easy to spend without thinking when you travel. A quick cup of coffee here, a snack there… it all adds up.
Not only does it add up against your bank account, it adds up against the notches in your belt.
Before you head out for a trip, think about picking up some snacks to keep in your bag. A quick trip to the grocery store to get snacks can save you spending much more for the same items at little stores along the way. Also, that saves you the TIME of having to stop.
Things you can get that will work great…
- Nuts
- Granola bars
- Fruit and vegetables
- Sandwiches (make them!)
Do yourself a favor. Print out a PDF version of this tip and put it by your suitcase. When you pack your clothes, you’ll remember to pack some healthy snacks that will save your budget AND waist line.
