Free ride

I wish we have relatives who can offer us a free ride so we can go the places that we want to visit this summer. It’s really expensive to travel by public transportation. We have to allot at least P3,000 or more for the travel expenses alone if we want to reach Baguio or Tagaytay. Private transportation can be more convenient for us because we are only four in the family. There would be enough room for my big kids and we can bring a lot of stuff with us. If one of us knew how to play a guitar, we can also bring a kramer guitar for entertainment.

Travel on a budget

If you worry about the expensive places to spend your weekend, check out for the nearest resort or private pool with inexpensive entrance fee. You can bring packed lunch and snacks to save on meal expenses. You may choose to commute, but others prefer to hire a private car to bring them to their destination without much hassle.

You can enjoy family outings without spending a lot; you just have to learn to look for cheaper alternatives as if you’re looking for discount perfumes in the market.

Airplane experience

None of my kids experience boarding on a plane. Yesterday, daughter tells me to secure a seat sale to Gensan so they could experience their first plane trip. With the high cost of living and approaching enrollment, we’re not sure if it is practical to include an out of town itinerary for the family. If not for the tight budget it is easy to reserve available seats than find the best diet pills that work. Wish I could realize my daughter’s dream to ride a plane without making a hole in our pocket.
