Eating out, accommodations, rental cars, plane tickets and other expenses can make taking a vacation costly. But don’t let the thought of a potentially lofty price tag deter you. Thank- fully, there are plenty of ways to save without sacrifi cing your travel experience dream. Here are some hints that may help: 1. Research free things to do for a memorable and affordable experience. Many nature parks are free to visit and make for a charming place for an outdoor family barbecue. During the summer there are of- ten free concerts and other events to choose from. Museums and zoos also often offer a free admission day during the week. 2. Loyalty programs are a great way to put hard-earned points, dollars and miles to work. Most credit cards have a points pro- gram that help members earn cash back or use their points with partnering airlines and rental car companies. Travelers can also save with hotel and lodging companies that offer free loyalty programs, such as Wyndham Rewards. Program members can earn points with a Wyndham hotel stay and redeem a free night for every 15,000 points accumulated. For those interested in a private accommoda- tion stay, Wyndham Rewards recently added 17,000 vacation homes to the already expan- sive 7,500 hotels available for redemption. 3. Curbing impulse-buying habits is one way to cut down on extra spending. Create a budget for all those small purchases that add up and stick to it. Limit souvenirs and take pictures to remember the trip in- stead. 4. Food and meals can offer a big op- portunity to save money.

Even if you cook only a few meals in, you can save a bundle. In fact, va- cationers who stayed in a vacation home with a kitchen reported saving $898 a week. You can also pick up the family’s favorite snacks to bring along during day trips or for a late night refreshment. Not only will it cut costs, it will add convenience as well. 5. Coupons are another way to get experi- ences on the cheap. Websites such as Grou- pon and LivingSocial can help you save on some activities that many travelers normally don’t consider. These websites are also great for getting ideas on what to do. Plus, some attractions sell discounted passes to multiple activities, museums or theme parks. Make sure to check their websites before visiting. For more saving advice, head over to Va- cationDifferently.com.

This holiday season—and any time of year—you can give (and get) a lot of joy for not a lot of money if you consider a few simple, smart tricks. 1. Regifting…with a purpose. You may not like a gift you received, but that doesn’t mean somebody else won’t love—and make good use of—it. Not only is it bet- ter to give than to receive (as the saying goes), it’s also wise to regift an unneeded Getting and giving item than to stow it away or great gifts can be eas- toss it out like garbage. ier and less expensive 2. Cleanliness is next than many people real- to godliness. With guests, ize. gifts and plenty of packaging coming into your home at this time of year, now is the perfect time to get stuff you no longer use, or don’t want anymore, out of your house. You don’t have to wait for spring-cleaning to declutter. 3. One man’s trash... While you can save money by regifting vs. buying something (of quality, to someone who needs it), you can make money just as easily by sell- ing items you want to give away for extra cash you can use to buy what you and those you care about really want. In our smartphone era, following these steps is easier than ever thanks to local marketplace apps like 5miles. As the name implies, 5miles is made for buying and selling right in your own neighborhood. With the free app, you can list and shop for everything from secondhand items (including cars) to local services, housing and jobs—basically anything you want to get rid of or buy. What sets apart this easy-to-use marketplace (think Craigslist meets Instagram) are 5miles’ safety and secu- rity features, including identity verifi cation, user ratings and reviews, and a safe exchange area locator. Simply put, the 5miles app has made it easy for people to buy and sell what they want, when and where they want it— without the risk that you take with other marketplaces, like Craigslist. As one of the most-downloaded shopping apps on Google Play, 5miles has grown to a community of 10 million users across the U.S. Every month, there are, on average, 1.2 million new listings, 45 million product searches and more than 80,000 items sold on the 5miles marketplace. • Classifi ed listings can be created on your phone, at your fi ngertips, simply by snapping a picture and entering a short description. • 5miles Wallet allows buyers and sellers who prefer not to transact in person, in cash, to use mobile payment and shipping options for more convenient, more secure transactions. • Social integration lets users sync up Facebook for verifi cation and log-in purposes, as well as share items they list with their friends and followers on Facebook and Twitter. From appliances and tools to furniture, clothing and shoes, jewelry and watches, electronics and much, much more, 5miles offers a wide range of product and service categories. With the average American household holding on to 35 unused items worth $670 (resale value), there’s no better time than now, heading into the New Year, to move stuff out of your home and move some extra cash into your wallet. To learn more or to see what’s available on 5miles, visit www.5milesapp.com, or go to the App Store or Google Play to download the app. CONSTRUCTION/CONTRACTORS For clean as a whistle, call Ore.
