How to save money on travel?

● Clothes

Actually, not many people will buy clothes when traveling. Here, let's put shopping in the concept of "clothes" for the time being. Many people have shopping hobbies when traveling, one is to give gifts to relatives and friends, and the other is to commemorate. My suggestions are as follows: First, buy as little as possible during the tour, because it is inconvenient to travel when you buy something, and the prices in tourist areas are generally higher, so it is not cost-effective to buy something. At the same time, it is worth noting that remember not to buy expensive things. Some tourist areas often use various methods to sell counterfeit goods when selling valuables, aiming at the characteristics of high customer mobility. If you buy these valuables, once the tourists come back, they find that they have been cheated and can't make a theory because of the long distance, so they have to admit that they are unlucky. So what should I buy? Just buy some local specialties that are not too expensive and easy to carry.

● Stay

When traveling abroad, the hotel quality is directly related to the tourism quality and expenses. To live well and cheaply, the first choice in location is the guest house of the unit. They all have good conditions: air conditioning, TV, telephone and hot water are generally available. And is cheap and safe. Of course, when choosing a hotel, we should try our best to avoid staying in some "guest houses" that look insecure. It is said that many security problems are caused by such hotels. Secondly, it is also helpful to avoid the local tourist season in time and save the cost. Generally speaking, in the off-season of tourism, the hotel industry has different degrees of concessions.

● Travel

Transportation is the most expensive item in tourism, often accounting for more than half of the total expenditure. If you have plenty of time, it is most suitable to take a hard sleeper by train, which is much cheaper than the plane, saves accommodation expenses and increases the content of the journey. To buy a plane ticket, you must first know the departure time and model. After arriving at the destination, you should know about the distance and price before taking a taxi so as not to be cheated.

when you travel, you naturally have to run around here and there. If you want to save money on "traveling", you should first have a general understanding of the scenic spots you travel (so I strongly recommend that you buy a map first when you go to a place) and have a certain understanding of the local traffic conditions. Then you can choose "walking" or "taking a taxi". Why not walk nearby, stroll the streets and see the local customs of scenic spots and cities without spending money? Far away, it's better to take a taxi.

● Eat

When traveling abroad, you can't miss tasting local special foods, such as Goubuli steamed buns in Tianjin, almond cakes in Zhongshan, Shanghai-style snacks, rice noodles crossing the bridge in Yunnan and durian in Thailand. Naturally, the place of origin is authentic and cheap, but don't buy it at tourist spots, and you won't be "slaughtered" if you buy it at the street shop where you live. Knowing that the next day's lunch will be eaten in a place in the middle of nowhere, you should buy enough lunch food and drinks, which will save several times the price of your own food.

● Play

This is the biggest purpose of tourism. It is inevitable to spend money on scenic spots, exhibitions or shopping. The world is so big, where to go and where not to go? You must look at the tourist map or inquire: first choose the most representative landscape; The exhibition should be visited selectively; Don't waste the film by pressing the shutter, choose a good scene or a commemorative lens; You'd better learn about the amusement items that you can't see in advance from the tourists who have finished swimming, and don't just listen to the indiscriminate blowing of selling tickets.

● Shopping

Traveling and shopping are very different between men and women. Most men don't buy or buy less, so they might as well spend more time buying some special handicrafts or local products and go home to respect their wives and filial mothers. Most women buy too much or buy indiscriminately. When buying clothes, jewelry or jewelry and jade, they should not only listen to the introduction clearly, but also trust their own vision and judgment.
