It’s about that time of year when we start daydreaming at work about basking in the sun on the beach while drinking a pina colada. Then, we wake up and realize that we need to start saving some money to make that summer vacation happen!
Vacations can be a financial drain, and you should splurge when it comes to your vacation, as long as you can save up for it and pay cash. After all, you do deserve some rest and relaxation from the grueling grind of work. Survey after survey proclaims the sad truth: Workers don't use their vacation time. One study showed working Americans on average use less than 50% of accrued vacation time each year.

5 Tips For A Great Vacation
- The Plan. Get your spouse/family on board with the plan. Plan your daily activities in advance, Know Before You Go. Plan your routes you plan to travel to save time and gas.
- Get the BEST discount possible for where you plan to stay. This is by far the most critical part of your vacation, where you sleep. During vacation times room-rates always tend to skyrocket, especially the weekends. Westgate Resorts has a vacation deal starting at $99 for more info Click Here.
- Take advantage of coupons. Whether it is for food, or attractions – coupons SAVE money! Find them everywhere... online, in local newspapers, at convenience stores, motels, etc. Always read the fine print carefully for terms of the coupon.
- Eat breakfast where kids eat free and split meals. This can mean an enormous saving for a family of four or larger. Children are many times too excited or tired to eat much at a time. Restaurants that are kid friendly are more than happy to accommodate special requests for extra plates.
- Turn off your cell phones. Remember you're on vacation for a reason to leave work and worries behind. Its time for your loved ones to enjoy you and to relax and enjoy yourself. Isn't that the reason why you went on vacation.
