- Don’t drink – just leads to expensive shouts
- Avoid the nightlife – not that hard for me, as I don’t like the music they play or the dimmed lighting. Some cost an arm and a leg to get into plus we had to rely on cabs sometimes, whose fares add up rapidly.
- Make the most of a free feed – breakfast wasn’t always included in our hotels but when it was I loaded up which meant I didn’t need to buy lunch.
- Make the most of buffets – for similar reasons to No 3. These are especially prevalent in Las Vegas and are affordable so load up
- Stick to a budget – don’t carry all your cash at one time
- Souvenirs – cheap and small ones are fine. They are easy to pack and probably more useful in the long run eg magnets, postcards, ornaments, casino chips, badges. Some of the best souvenirs are sometimes free from the motel eg pens, notepads and the key cards.

Hello,
As the tour manager I feel I would like the right of reply! Tim was always a well behaved boy and never took the rest of your meal unless he was sure it was completely finished! I should take a leaf from Tims book because I did spend a lot of money and he didn't!!
I thoroughly recommend you take a Convicts tour for yourself just to see just how much you can do on an organised tour for very little money. Good work Timmy!
Ant.
