E.Central MN | I agree that the memories are priceless. Just because a person goes on vacation to someplace like Hawaii it doesn't mean you have to spend $10k. Its been quite a while since I went, but I didn't spend more than a couple hundred bucks more than the hotel/tour package and the package didn't cost all that much to start with. Some of the most fun I've had on vacations was going to the neighborhood flea markets and buying small things to remember the trip. For example: my Mom collected dress pins that she wore on her uniform at the hospital so I'd try to find a few for her collection. A pin that would cost $25-50 at a gift shop would cost only a dollar or two at a garage sale or flea market. Sometimes I'd find an old or exotic one. Plus it didn't take up much space in the suitcase, it left room for a new t-shirt or two that have since been thrown out. | |
