BUDGETING TIPS



Tip Number 1...
Budget in approximately 2 to 3 Hundred Dollars for Gas for a round trip to and from our destination. We will be traveling a total of approximately 800 miles round trip.

Tip Number 2...
When it comes to making the decision as to whether to bring food and drink from home, or to buy it in the Outer banks, from my research, I understand that the prices are very comparable. There are also many fruit and vegetable stands on the way as well as a few larger chain stores in the Outer banks, such as Food Lion and Walmart. I also understand that beer and wine may be bought in the Food Lion stores but liquor is only available through the state-run liquor stores. Remember too, after an eight hour drive, you may not feel like shopping the first night, so consider bringing a few things from home.
