Hi there, kindred spirit. \u00a0You and I have a lot in common. \u00a0When I was 13 years-old, I bought a board game at Shopko on clearance for $6 and then rode my bike to return it to ZCMI for a $26 in-store credit. I got myself some rear-view sunglasses and a Black Hills gold necklace. (You stop your laughing! It was 1992 and we all know that the early 90s were practically the 80s).<\/p>\n
I’ll admit that I did feel a little guilty when I pulled off that dubious stunt. \u00a0My ability to see behind me and the shiny chain around my turtle-neck did help me get over it quickly, though.<\/p>\n
Today, my exploits are less guilt-evoking and no longer fashion-centered. Because travel is somewhat of an addiction for me, it’s flights and hotel nights that I’m scouting for deals on. What I’m telling you is that\u00a0you’ve found the right spot if you want to apply that same voracious value vigor that we share when it comes to travel. Sheldon and I are passionate about sharing travel tips – particularly the kind that help people do amazing things for little to nothing.<\/p>\n
I’ve already told you how Nicole and I booked two tickets to Italy this fall for $81 a ticket.<\/a>\u00a0Somehow that’s just not enough for me and my 1.8 million remaining frequent flyer miles and points are burning a hole in my pocket. \u00a0It used to be enough just to have one trip on the horizon. \u00a0Now it seems I need two.<\/p>\n Right now I’m weighing a few potential options. \u00a0I figured I’d throw them out there and see what any of you might have to say. \u00a0Here’s what I’m evaluating and how I’d make it happen:<\/p>\n American History Tour<\/p><\/div><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n I’m not sure what we’ll wind up doing, but the best part about all this is that I can sit here and daydream of three amazing vacations I could do for less than $200-500 out of pocket! It’s the kind of thing that just makes me smile.<\/p>\n I want you to smile, too. \u00a0Comment below and tell us where you’d like to go and we’ll help you make it happen. Also, if you have some clever tightwad stories, I want to hear them, too.<\/p>\n Thanks for wanderlusting with us, cheapskate!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" You know who you are… When you fill up your 44oz fountain drink, you suck down the\u00a0first\u00a0six ounces and then top ‘er off again before you take it up to the register.

Las Vegas Getaway:<\/strong> This is the easiest and probably the most likely. \u00a0I’d do this trip on Allegiant Air, just like I talked about in this post<\/a>. \u00a0It would be a weekend deal and cost me very little out of pocket with the $440 reimbursement from the Barclaycard Arrival World MasterCard<\/a>\u00a0that we have already met the spending requirement on.<\/span><\/li>\n![\"American](\"https:\/\/worldwanderlusting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/11\/Picture-9.png\")
