With all of the costs of getting to wherever you are
 
going, wouldn't it be nice to actually learn how to save
 
money when you're there? Besides hunting for the best
 
tickets and times to travel, you also need to learn
 
about how to make the most of every
 
dollar/rupee/yen/euro/etc. when you're actually there.
 
1.Learn the exchange rate - This seems like common
 
sense, but knowing the exchange rate will allow you to
 
tell when you're paying too much or at least more than
 
you want to be spending.
 
2.Make a budget - By just setting yourself a limit on
 
what you can spend each day, you'll start to
 
subconsciously limit yourself.
 
3. Make it a game - If you're traveling with someone,
 
try to make it a game to see who can spend the least
 
amount of money. You'll be surprised at what you can do.
 
 
3.Walk - Instead of paying for transportation and taxis,
 
why not get a little exercise and save money at the same
 
time? Or, you can always walk part of the way and pay
 
for the rest - at a much lesser fee than you would have
 
with the whole route.
 
4.Eat where the locals eat - Think about it. When you're
 
at home, you have certain places that you eat because
 
they're good and they're cheap. So do people in other
 
countries.
 
5.Take some risks - Head into the smaller stores that
 
you find but aren't all that crowded. You will find
 
beautiful things at lower prices because they're not
 
catering to the tourists that are going to be there.
 
6.Talk to locals - When you're interested in something,
 
talk to the locals about where you might be able to find
 
it. You will learn things that you wouldn't get out of
 
your guidebook as well as where these activities are
 
cheaper.
 
7.Don't drink your money away - Try to limit your
 
alcohol wherever you can or save it for a few special
 
days. It's easy to spend too much.
 
8.Choose one thing - And then spend a lot of money on
 
that. If you're heading to Italy, for example, you might
 
want to save your money up for a day of shopping, but be
 
thrifty the rest of the time.
 
9.You only live once - When all else fails, just spend a
 
little more than you thought that you would. You aren't
 
going to be there everyday, so why not make the most of
 
it when you are?
