How would you like to take a $2,400 family vacation next 4th of July?

Sounds pretty good right? The average cost of a family vacation is about $1,600; so an extra $800 is icing on the cake.

And you may be thinking, “How could I afford vacation like that?”

I’ve got the answer.  Stop going out to lunch every workday!

The Cost of Eating Lunch Out

An average lunch out cost about $10.  Over a single month you’ll save $200 just by bringing your lunch.  Multiply that by 12 months and you’ve got $2,400.

Of course you’ll need to bring your lunch to work and that will cost something however it will be far less than $200 each month as detailed here Cheap and Healthy Brown-bag Lunch Ideas for Grownups

Enjoy your vacation and good health!
