Spring Break 2009! Wahoooooooooooooooo!!! 5 Reasons You Should Book a Great Deal Today!

Feb 22, 2009 Author: Katie Lara | Filed under: Recessionista Advice

So, we’ve recently booked a trip to Playa Del Carmen with the BF (yay!!) so we’ve been scrimping and saving every penny we have to make it work. And let me just tell you, we think this trip has really helped our lifestyle, here’s why:

We’ve started eating healthier since every time we picture ourselves in a bathing suit we can practically already see each and every french fry or late night slice of pizza going to our tummy, butt or thighs.
We’ve cut down our alcohol intake to save cash and calories
We’ve been working out consistently and hard to make sure we can see our results. We’ve been walking and running in Central Park with the BF even on the weekends.
We’ve been cooking–this has been saving us a ton of money and a ton of calories too!

So, recessionistas, even though we’ve spent a pretty penny on this vacay we think it’s money well spent. Plus when you have a happy ending to work for it makes not ordering in or shopping our cares away much easier.

We can’t wait to tell everyone about our trip (don’t get too excited though, we don’t leave till mid-March).

Smartypanties think booking a short vacation is worth the money you will spend. There are plenty of luxurious resorts right now with great deals. Our body is already thanking us for avoiding the inevitable winter weight gain we surely would have had if we had not had a sunny getaway to look forward to. (We’ll wait till we’re at our all-inclusive resort to do that)
