Underrated Travel Hacking Tips for Everyone
Tumblr media
I haven’t taken a vacation for the last three years with good reason regarding the severity of the global health crisis and the economy of the US. Inflation is at an all-time high and the cost of everything from groceries to clothing increased.
On one of my work lunch breaks, I stumbled upon a YouTube video from professional, full time travel vloggers who enjoy saving money. I saw that the Youtuber went on a “travel hacking” trip around the world to save up miles and points for two weeks. I personally would not like to spend only a day in different countries while spending so much money to fly there. Also, I don’t want to pay the annual fees for travel credit cards. Therefore, I decided to do my own research to see which tips could work for any frugal traveler.
·         Link your accounts: Delta SkyMiles and Instacart have a partnership. Everyone needs groceries. I order from Costco every week to support my family and we buy the necessities (milk, meat, fruits, and vegetables) only to cut costs. Every one dollar spent on Instacart is one and a half miles on Delta. It racks up quickly.
·         Bonus Tip: Instacart has a great deal when an order is placed within a three-hour window, the customer receives two dollars off their order. More money in your wallet!
·         Best Credit Card: Amazon Prime Rewards Visa is the most economical credit card that has no annual fee. I invested in an Amazon Prime membership in 2016 and never looked back. It is the only streaming service that I pay for. Majority of my purchases are from Amazon and I received five percent back with each order. It is two percent back on restaurants, gas, and drugstores. There is one percent back on all other purchases.  The points can be used to buy anything that Amazon has on their website.
·         SkyMiles Shopping: Airlines like Delta have their own designated website where a customer can earn airline miles with their purchases. Every company listed on the website has a specific number of miles that a customer can earn. I love fitness and I buy my workout clothes from the website. During the holiday season, I was able to earn three miles per every one dollar spent for a Delta flight by buying two tie dye sweatshirts.
With the information that I learned and stated above, I booked my flight to Hilo, Hawaii and I posted some photographs that I took below. It was heavenly paradise.

It was so beautiful to see the aerial view of Hawaii from a helicopter and the scent of sea water was relaxing.

Saturday! It was such a magical night. I pretty much took myself on my perfect date.
It started out slow, I slept in and didn't get out of bed till after 11am. I had some caffeine and did some writing. After that I ran to Target to get some bike shorts to wear under my skirt. I also got some snacks for the morning since I had to leave relatively early to catch my flight back home on Sunday.
I had dinner at the Boathouse on the second floor of the Double Tree. It was a lot fancier than I thought it would be. I ordered ice tea and it came in a stemmed glass. I had a really nice view of the Charles River. The stuffed lamb was really good. So was the rest of the food.
After dinner I went down to Sculler's Jazz Club on the first floor. The tables next to mine were occupied by a bunch of ladies and we all kind of merged into one group. We talked and laughed before the show started. Gerald Albright was the artist, I would recommend seeing him if you have a chance. It was good music with a bunch of new friends. I'm always surprised on my solo trips that a lot of the time I find random people to talk to. Even when not staying at a hostel.
Solo travel can be lonely at times, but other times you just run into the right people at the right place. I had an amazing time in Boston the music, shopping, and history were all superb.
The flight home was uneventful. I got a lot of writing done in my journal, listened to some soft jazz and took a nap. I'll try to do a complete trip summery later this week.
Safe travels everyone ☺️
