Trying to save for vacation?
It’s easy to go overboard when you go on a vacation. A dedicated savings account can be the extra cash you use for tickets, hotels, or spending money once you get to your destination.
Here’s how to get started.
How to save for vacation
Although we think of vacations as a time to unwind and let go, it’s important to live within your means, wherever you are. You don’t want to come home to a mountain of debt that you’ve incurred while away. Create a trip that fits your budget and stick to that budget. Having a dedicated account like RoundUp Savings from The Summit can help with the costs of airfare, hotels, or potential splurges and be a great tool to prepare you for vacation.
Tip: There are so many ways to save when you travel, especially on lodging. Vacation rentals may give you more choice and more flexibility beyond hotels.
