It’s sweet summertime and there is one word on the minds of moms everywhere…..
VACATION!
Ahh, glorious vacation! But if you’re like me, with even the thought of vacation, you’re seeing dollar signs.
What if I told you that one lucky reader will win a FREE 4 Day/3 Night trip to the incredible, oceanfront Sand Dunes Resort and Spa in Myrtle Beach, SC resort along with FREE water park passes, FREE golf, FREE breakfast buffet for children, and MORE?! Keep reading to find out how your family could be our lucky winner!
But first, what if you’re not the lucky winner, but still want to take your family on a fun and memorable vacation without breaking the bank? How do you do that?
Here are 5 Tips for taking a frugal {and fun} family vacation:
1. Stay within driving distance. This is a no-brainer, right? Airfare is expensive and unless you can find a totally awesome deal, it probably isn’t within the vacation budget. At least not for us. Chances are most of you are within driving distance to somewhere fun…the beach, mountains, state park, a different city, etc.
2. All-inclusive is good! Find a vacation spot that not only includes your lodging, but also food and entertainment! For example, when we stay at a Sands Resort, we not only get an incredible suite, we also receive complimentary tickets to Wild Water & Wheels water park, FREE Golf at Diamond Back Golf Course, kids eat free for breakfast every morning, FREE passes to the Ocean Drive Pavilion Amusement Park and more! These extras are not only fun, but save us money on entertainment!
3. Book a room with a kitchen! This allows you to cook your own meals and cuts down on the expenses of eating out!
4. Travel off-season– this is especially easy if you’re a homeschooling family! We’ve scored some awesome deals during the off season. For example New Year’s Eve, we stayed at a Sands Resort for less than $50 a night! It was a perfect {frugal} overnight trip!
5. Find discount codes! Like this one….

I entered, but I doubt if I could get my husband to leave home or really believe we won a free vacation. He always thinks every thing is a gimick.
