Saving Money on Your Summer Getaway

As the summer season approaches, many of us are gearing up for a well-deserved break. However, with the cost of living crisis still looming large, it’s essential to be mindful of our spending habits. In this article, we’ll explore some savvy ways to save money at the airport before your summer getaway.

The Private Rental Sector Nightmare

Renters often find themselves with scant legal protection when it comes to common issues like challenging no-fault evictions or preventing steep rent increases. Martin Lewis, the founder of Money Saving Expert, has launched a new initiative to provide valuable advice on areas outside his expertise, including the private rental sector. In his latest podcast, he delved into the myriad of difficulties faced by millions of renters, from escalating rents to substandard property upkeep.

Tips for Budgeting Before Take-Off

According to a survey by Premier Inn, a whopping 50% of us do not factor airport purchases into our holiday spending. To avoid breaking the bank, here are some tips for budgeting before take-off:

• Feeding the family can be costly, so consider getting a lounge pass. Prices start from £13.50 per person, but vary nationwide.
• Do some thorough online research for items you might want to buy, and screenshot the price so that you can compare it at the airport.
• Think before you drink. Bring your own foldable cups and use the airport water fountain to fill one and use the other for coffee.
• Keep a travel “go bag” in your wardrobe so you are always airport-ready and don’t forget the essentials!

Lucrative Tip for Bank Customers

Martin Lewis has highlighted a lucrative tip for bank customers that could see them pocketing a staggering £3,000. By switching multiple times and opening ‘burner accounts’ just for switching, many people have managed to amass a small fortune. One success story saw a couple making £3,000, which they used to pay for a seven-day family holiday in Rome.

Conclusion

By following these savvy tips and taking advantage of lucrative bank offers, you can save money on your summer getaway and make the most of your hard-earned cash. Remember to always prioritize your spending habits and make the most of your holiday budget.
