I like your list JT, especially the thing with keeping an envelope for storing all receipts :) Milo Yes, packing your own meals really adds to the whole concept of saving and budgeting on a vacation.

I'm pretty good at keeping a tight budget whenever I go on trips. Here in the Philippines there are a lot of places, especially in provincial towns, that don't have ATMs yet so I try to really budget my money in such a way that I can still afford to eat snacks on my way home. If I know I'll be traveling by sea (which usually means between 12-24 hours or even more), I try to pack my own meals because food are usually priced much higher in ferries. Thanks for sharing these!
