  • Hi, as well as taking half the kitchen with you, take a cool bag and some cool packs and have some picnics on the beach. Try and take plenty of drinks with you or source the local supermaket before you go as these can be the items that seem to eat into the money. Lets face it a can of drink in some shops can cost the same amount as a go in an arcade and I know which my son would prefer. Also check out websites for 2-4-1 vouchers for local attractions - download as many as possible you don't have to use them and the paper can be recycled.:j

    We always take two pre made evening meals with us in cooking pots usually a spag bol and a curry... this is for the first two nights... then we eat out from there... this reduces costs
