Looking for a few easy ways to save money on your trips in your new or used RV? Take a look our RV tips for saving money on where you stay and how you get there!
Free Parking
Winner, winner, chicken dinner! The Overnight Parking Finder app will give you the locations and directions to the closest Walmart stores in your vicinity.
Walmart allows RVers to park overnight in their lots, and you’ll also have the added convenience of being able to run in to grab any treats or essentials you may have left at home. And most Walmarts also have a gas station, so in addition to having a reliable overnight parking spot and a freshly stocked pantry, you can also hit the road in the morning with a full tank of fuel.
It’s My Recommendation…
If you prefer to stay in RV parks and campgrounds on your way to your destination, instead of at Walmart, you can use the RV Parks and Campgrounds app to help chart your course. Its giant in-app user database sorts campgrounds based on rankings and ratings from travelers just like yourself who have stayed there. This can help save money, time, and hassle trying to find a place that is affordable and has the amenities you need.
Pack Lightweight
Water weighs a lot! If you can, try to only fill your fresh tank with the minimum amount of water you need to reach your destination. Then, refill once you get there! Reducing the water weight is one easy way to put less strain on your towing vehicle’s engine – saving you money on fuel in the long run.
Make a Simple, Easy Meal Plan
If you can, commit to preparing more meals on your own rather than eating out. With inflation causing all prices everywhere to boom, it’s still much easier on your wallet to prepare simple and inexpensive meals. Hot breakfasts of oatmeal are not only inexpensive but hearty, healthy, and filling. Simple sandwiches at lunch time can tide everyone over until dinner.
And easy to prepare soups and stews give you a lot of bang for the buck when it comes to making a lot of food for very little money. Saving money on your vacation meals means you can relax and splurge on the activities you do want to enjoy with your family.
Saving money on your vacation is easier than you think – it just takes a little creative planning! Traveling in a new or used RV is still the most affordable way to travel compared to conventional traveling costs associated with airfares and resort lodgings. Our competitive RV financing can make it even more affordable. Contact us today!
