How to Save Money for a Family Cruise

A Working Girl's Guide to Saving for a Family Cruise

There are many effective ways to save for your family cruise. When you spend 40 hours a week at your job, 52 weeks a year, you deserve to have some time to get away from the rat race to relax and enjoy your family. And what better way to do that than on a cruise.

Unless, you're independently wealthy, you'll need to have a plan for saving up the money you need. While this may seem simple, some people find it difficult to lay aside money each pay period. I'm going to give you 3 practical tips to saving money for your family cruise.

1. Open a separate savings account specifically meant for your cruise money. If your employer offers direct deposit, you can usually specify a certain automatic direct transfer to your savings account if you don't have direct deposit or if you are not able to deposit money into two separate accounts.
2. Examine the amount of money your family spends weekly or monthly on family entertainment and fast food restaurants. Then reduce that amount, storing the remainder away for your cruise. So that a pending cruise doesn't become a joy-buster, shop around for freebie and reduced-cost entertainment options to enjoy during the months before you sail.
3. Another good way to save up money is to save your change. When you use cash, resolve to only use paper money. Then take the change you receive and put it aside at the end of everyday you'll be surprised how quickly it can build up.
