Use ATMs for Local Currency

If you’re going some place that has a different currency, then you’ll want to use a local ATM to convert to the local currency. Before traveling, check with your bank to see which systems will be in the area you’re traveling to. It’s a very sophisticated network. Just be sure to wait until you get out of the airport before using an ATM. The fees will be much lower on the outside.

Use Yelp

Yelp is a great guide for restaurants and attractions. Every city you’ll travel to in the US has a Yelp outlet. This will probably be your favorite go-to app. You can even pre-Yelp before your travel and bookmark those place you want to see. BTW, as much as you can, you want to eat locally. Although there might be a McDonald’s where you’re going, there is also one back home. Get out and explore!

Shop for Groceries Outside the Hotel

Regardless of where you’re staying, it’s a safe bet there will be a small grocery store within walking distance of your hotel. This is where you should pick up your snacks, water and other sundries. The hotel gift shop will always be way too expensive.

Make Friends

You don’t really need a lot of guide books to explore the town. Just find a nearby coffee shop and ask the locals for their recommendations. You’re sure to get plenty of suggestions. If you’re extremely lucky and make a new friend, then don’t turn down an invitation for a home cooked meal. You can always return the favor.

Don’t Unpack Your Toiletry Bag

All the things you need to freshen up will be in your toiletry bag. There’s no need to spread them out on a hotel sink. It will make packing up much easier if you keep everything in the bag and pull out what you need, when you need it.

Unpack at Upon Arrival

When you get home, you might be silly tired but you should unpack right away. It could be as simple as throwing everything into the washer but you don’t want to leave dirty clothes in a suitcase overnight.

It would also be nice to come home to a house that is clean. This is something you’ll want to take care of before you go. You should also take care of any big chores, too. Nothing can spoil the after glow of a vacation like a “to do” list. To help with that, you should hire Junk King St. Petersburg. One session with these junk hauling pros and your home can be clear of rubbish and unwanted clutter from top to bottom. Before your vacation starts, let Junk King St. Petersburg help you get a junk-free home.

I appreciate that I received an email confirmation of my appointment and an emailed receipt as soon as they left my house. I appreciated that I received a call from the representatives who would be picking up my items to let me know when they would arrive. I appreciated that they were there when they said they’d be there. The men who picked up the items were friendly and professional and were quick to load the appliances to the truck. Thank you!” – S.N., Largo

clutter-360058_960_720

At the End

Which end? All ends. Start with buying at the end of the month. A dealership is focused on hitting their sales target and they’ll be eager to make a deal. The same can be said for the end of the day. A dealer knows they stand a better chance of selling to you if you’re physically in their showroom but they’ll also be eager to move things along towards closing time. March, June, September and December represent the end of the quarter and those are also good times to land a good deal.

Consider Last Year’s Model

The difference between last year’s model and this year’s model is often too small to measure. Most new car models start making their way into dealerships in the fall. That means those dealers have to move out last year’s model to make room. That puts you in a strong bargaining position.

Holiday Weekends

Dealers know how busy most of their customers are. That’s why the load up specials for the long holiday weekends for Labor Day, Memorial Day, Independence Day or Thanksgiving. You might not want to spend your day off at a dealer but if it can save you a couple of thousands off the price, then it is time well spent.

Everyone with a new car is overly protective of that vehicle as they should be. That means you’ll want to park it in your garage but only if the garage is clear of rubbish. You don’t want ding the car door opening into something that should have been tossed out. This is where Junk King St. Petersburg can be a huge help. They’ll send over a moving crew and truck to help you get your garage emptied out in no time at all. Let Junk King St. Petersburg help you get your garage cleaned for the arrival of your new car.

It is also nice to use that timer to give yourself some breaks. Just keep them to a time limit!

Recruit Help

Anyone who lives in a home should be cleaning that home. You’ll want to recruit your kids and spouse to the spring cleaning tasks. It will certainly get things done a lot quicker. If it helps to crank up the music throughout the house to get everyone moving, then go for it.

Start at the Top and Work Your Way Down

Your spring cleaning should have a top to bottom approach. Start upstairs and work your way down. In each room, start with the ceiling fans and the high shelves and dust down. The last thing to do in each room is vacuum and/or mop. That way you’ll be picking up everything you’ve just swiped off.

Use Natural Cleaners

There are dozens of chemical-based cleaners that can help you get the job done but they can also emit toxic fumes. Instead, you might want to take a natural approach to your spring cleaning. There are many cleaning solutions you can make starting with vinegar. A quick online search will provide you with all the recipes. You’re home will get clean and smell fresh.

Timing

Super Bowl Sunday might not be the best time to ask for someone to clean a bathroom. The same can be said when your kids are in the homework zone. A better approach would be to find a mutually agreed upon time when schedules are clear. It might mean waking up a little bit earlier on Saturday morning. It will also help to have a definitive time to clean. You’re not going to get far if you tell them they’re going to be cleaning all day long.

Don’t Overwhelm Them

You hope that your kids can stay focused in school but there are a lot of distractions at home. It might help to not to overwhelm with too many assignments. If they’re vacuuming, then let them focus on that but they can vacuum everywhere.

Set Standards

The hope is that they’ll take your advice on how to do things like mop the floor or clean the bathtub but if they come up with their own method, then let them go for it. When the goal is achieved, it’s all good.

Be a Model
