The kids are out of school and it's time for summer vacations! The only problem is that most of us are still hurting from the down economy. Here are some cheap vacation ideas to help you get away:
Camping: Most of us having camping options reasonably close to help save on gas. As long as you already have camping gear, camping is a cheap alternative and the kids will love getting in touch with their wild side.
Stay-cation: Turn your spare room or back yard into a fort and pretend to get away, or try leaving the kids with a friend and get a hotel room for a romantic night “away”.
Visit friends: Do you have a friend that’s moved away that you’ve been meaning to visit? As long as they have a spare room, you can save on hotel costs.
Road Trip! Pack up the kids and hit the road! Head to a national forest or just pick a direction, drive, and see what kind of adventures you find along the way.
We want to know if you're taking a vacation this summer and what you’re doing to be creative to keep the costs down.
