Do’s

Keep a tab on expenditure:            

Monitoring your expenses is the only way to keep within your budget. Overspending is sometimes not a mistake but something that happens without your wish.

Every day once check if you have adhered to the plan and not spent more than you meant to.

Go travelling off the season:

Do some research:

Researching about your travel destination will save you from spending money unnecessarily. There are places where you can reach by a cheap flight but staying there will cost a lot. Choose destinations where the accommodation and food costs are comparatively low. Some such places are Peru, Thailand, Vietnam and Costa Rica.

Get refunded:

Ask for a return of the amount you have already paid for booking flight tickets if you locate a decline in the prices all of a sudden. Keep track of great travel deal on Twitter. You may find offers and discounts useful for you.

Don’ts

Don’t ignore rules
