Vacation closer to home as fuel is one of the largest expenditures for us at least.
Pack "picnic lunches" for outtings where you won't be returning to the camper for meals.
Stay away from fast foods, they are expensive.
Don't buy junk trinkets to remember the vacation as you will likely never look at again once home.
Good luck.
Yes, closer to home saves fuel and we'll be within 200 miles for all other trips this year except the big trip. That's 1900 miles and I'm prepared to pay for the fuel. It's still cheaper than driving, staying in hotels and eating out all the time so I can justify pulling the TT.
And you're right about the junk trinkets, they don't really look at them once they're home do they. Sometimes I have even noticed that they get lost in the camper before we get home! One thing I don't mind is the squished penny machine. It's cheap and neat and if it gets lost it's only $0.51.
