Plus they always have a really good continetal or hot breakfast. I try to make sure we pick a hotel with a fridge and coffeemaker. Makes eating in room so much easier. A coffee maker gives you boiling water for top ramen, soups, etc... <br /><br />I took my three younger brothers to Vegas a couple years ago and we were there for 5 days. I believe we only spent about $150 on food. We mostly ate in the hotel room and we splurged on buffets like once or twice (of course the breakfast since it was cheapest)!<br /><br />Thanks for the post. Love the healthy little breakfast you made for your kiddos using coupons!Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14473131878856957092noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-335996457808872578.post-81286981862128272152012-02-02T22:31:31.377-06:002012-02-02T22:31:31.377-06:00Great ideas!

When my daugther was younger & we traveled with tons of toys - mostly small ones like Little People - I would put a foldable pop up tote (the square canvas ones)in my suitcase and when we got to the hotel I'd dump the toys out of the backpack and into the tote. It made cleanup easier. I don't know that we saved any money doing that though. :)<br /><br />One thing we do is that we try to always stay at the same hotel chain in order to earn free nights. We are going out of town this spring and have 2 nights we don't have to pay for a hotel due to earning points and getting free rooms (we use the Marriott chain-they have a nice rewards system). We also stay in hotels with a free continental breakfast. I was surprised that they are not always more expensive. That does save us alot.Debrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03179975836835123468noreply@blogger.com
