15 introduction of free travel in the United States and Canada

The United States and Canada occupy most of the North American continent and are also two developed countries. They have a very beautiful regional environment and natural landscape, as well as a long history of modern cultural buildings and cultural characteristics. I would like to share with you the free travel strategy of the United States and Canada on 15.

In fact, this is a money-saving strategy. What I share with you is how to save your own budget.

Introduce the basic situation. I booked the plane ticket myself, a round-trip ticket from Wuhan-Hongkong-new york Cathay Pacific. Actually, I bought it expensive. My price is about 5200 yuan, actually close to 4000 yuan.

I am a free traveler in new york, and I didn't join a tour group. When I left new york for Philadelphia, Washington and Boston, I signed up with the local travel agency. It is also the Chinese travel agency in new york that set out from the United States to Canada.

Excluding shopping, the per capita cost is around 15 thousand.

In fact, before I went to the United States, I studied that it was more cost-effective to find a local travel agency than to join a group tour directly in China, so I decided to sign up for a group tour locally.

In fact, the main reason is that English is too poor, otherwise it is not too difficult for the United States to travel freely.

Put a picture of the Statue of Liberty. You can ask me about free travel in the eastern United States, and I will definitely reply.

I haven't written a post about my trip, and I don't know. You can leave a message and ask me what you want to know.

The municipal center in Toronto, Canada (thank you for reminding me, love you ~)

Quebec, Canada, I think it's beautiful. I will definitely find a chance to go again. I'll stay in town for half a month next time.

When I went there, the maple leaves were turning red and green.

Niagara Falls is spectacular in Canada, and it is more clear than in America.

New york at night shot at the Empire State Building. By the way, the ticket office of the Empire State Building only sells tickets that are not on the top floor. If you want to take a flight of stairs upstairs, you must make up the ticket. This photo was taken from the perspective of non-penthouse apartment.

Times Square requires a group photo at night. Tips are required for taking group photos. Oh, remember!

I really don't know how to say it, just talk about shopping that everyone cares about most. Shopping in the United States is non-refundable, and taxes vary from state to state, so the price you see is not the final price you pay.

Because if you go to Canada, shopping in new york and Canada is more cost-effective. Of course, if you plan to go to duty-free shops in Canada, you can really buy more things, which is cheaper than duty-free shops in New York Airport, because the exchange rate of Canadian dollars is lower!

New york shopping has to mention three places, one is woodbury Outlets. One is Macy's. The other is Fifth Avenue.

Today, I will tell you what is cost-effective and the money-saving strategies of these two places.

Woodbury outlets remembers to get a coupon with UnionPay card in the visitor center, which lists the discounts you can enjoy in detail. Be sure to show your proof of purchase when you pay the bill.

If you find that you forgot to use the coupon after paying the bill, you can choose to return the purchased product and pay the bill again. The return of outlets is really super fast. Just tell the cashier to return the goods. Nobody asked you why, and nobody checked your goods.

Coach at Outlets is really super cheap, super super cheap. How cheap is it? I was proud to see Huangpi's outlet coach get a 20% discount before going abroad, so I went shopping specially. I bought four bags at that time. Before paying the bill, I specially checked the purchasing price of the bags bought online. Purchasing is more expensive than buying it at Huangpi Outlets, so I bought it directly without hesitation. At that time, I naively thought that the price in America should be similar. After all, the domestic price has been 20% off, and it must be the end.

As a result, when Woodbury saw it, every bag he bought was expensive. Basically, each bag is more than 200 yuan! Suddenly my heart ached!

MK and KS are not expensive in America, and there are many styles. I bought 20 bags for my whole family on this trip. I bought a suitcase to pack.

Toryburch is also very cheap in Woodbury, and you can get an extra 10% discount with the coupons mentioned above. I remember meeting Tory in a duty-free shop in China one year.

Burch's flat shoes are very popular in the streets and cottages, and the domestic price is 4000 RMB. I bought it in toryburch at a price of almost 900 RMB. Do you think it's a great deal?

It is the shoes in this picture that are much cheaper than those in China.

Samsonite's box is also worth buying. I bought four boxes this time, all of which are about $200, which is not much cheaper than domestic ones.

Skin care products. You should buy it at Macy's, where the brand is very complete. I think the price of MAC is reasonable and not too expensive, so I didn't look at the others carefully. The SKII I like to use is very expensive, which is not suitable for new york to buy SKII.

Remember to take your passport to Macy's to find tourists.

The center center receives a coupon and can get a 10% discount. Basically all products except skin care products can be used. Just show it before paying the bill.

Finally, Fifth Avenue is a place where luxury goods are concentrated. Unfortunately, I can't afford it. Many new models of first-line luxury goods will be supplied in the shops there first. If I want to make a new model, I will definitely love it. Unfortunately, I really can't afford it next time. Only the ophthalmology department.

There is a watch discount store above Fifth Avenue, and the price of watches in it is really beautiful, which is basically 60% off in China.

I have no intention of buying a watch at all. Finally, I bought it at the right price.

To sum up, I like popular brands to go to outlets, like skin care products to Macy's, and like big-name new styles to go to Fifth Avenue!

Precautions:

Shopping in Canada is not refundable! In my experience, the price of Canadian duty-free shops is higher or lower than that of American duty-free shops, and the tax in new york is not low, and the tax rate in new york is around 8.25. On the whole, it is more cost-effective to buy things in Canada.

I really didn't pay attention to the ticket price in San Francisco, but this year's double eleven round-trip ticket from Beijing to Los Angeles is 2600, which I think is very cheap. In fact, when to buy the most cost-effective air ticket is really uncertain. I bought it more than two months in advance. It's not the cheapest at this time, but it's cheaper in the back. Personally, don't buy it with Ctrip.

I bought Longines 18000 and 15000, which are much cheaper than those in China. I bought them because they were cheap.

The main reason is that my English is too poor to write forms accurately in English, so I found an agent. If your English is ok, I can do it myself. Actually, it's better to apply for an American visa yourself, because you know the exact writing on the form. In fact, the interview is mainly to check whether your form is true. If it is true, it will basically pass.

I think Estee Lauder and Lancome in Canadian duty-free shops are cheap, especially the package is cost-effective. The suitcase is also quite cost-effective and worth buying. I dare to ask here. I hope my relatives can help me buy a bottle of Canadian shampoo. I feel good when I buy it, but I regret when I buy less.
