Bargain Travel
Have you ever brought home leftovers from that big meal out and then have it for one or more meals/lunches at home. Well, in my head that $16.95 entree divided by 3 now makes it a bargain meal of only $5.65! It's called "wearing rose colored glasses" or "making lemonade out of lemons," it's how I deal with the cost of living nowadays.
I've been stewing about the whole Holiday Inn/Priority Club debacle. If you missed my ranting and raving you can go HERE to catch up. I have sent my last email, posted my last complaint and moved on. I used the same approach as above, we simply ADDED a few days using our free rooms...this time we called and talked to a PERSON to place the reservation. This made the vacation 7 days instead of 4 turning this into a pretty frugal trip! Are you following... did I lose ya with this one???
I think all that worked out pretty well and mmm on the dinner.
ReplyDeleteIf I divide the cost by 3 meals, can I divide the calories too???
DeleteWhat a lot of bother for you though - and Holiday Inn has had some world-wide negative publicity. I'm glad you'll get to see the graduation though!
ReplyDeleteWe are really looking forward to our trip, despite the travel glitch!
