How to Make Cheap International Calls from Anywhere You Travel
The focus of this blog is to show you cheap travel options without compromising your travel safety, quality, and comfort. In this post, I’ll show you how to make cheap international calls from anywhere you travel.
You can use international calling cards when you travel overseas to call back to the USA. Great savings! If you have ever tried to call back home using the hotel phone, then you know what I am talking about — a big bill!
Now you can be paying as low as 2 cents a minute to call from Mexico (or any other country!) back to the USA with these international calling cards; and you can still use your hotel phone!
Just dial the provided local number or toll-free number for the specific country you are calling from. Calling back to the USA from most countries could be as low as 2 cents a minute. Talk about cheap travel!
Is it Cheaper to Fly or Drive? Use the Fly or Drive Calculator!
In spite of the dreaded TSA encounters, the checked baggage fees, and reduced customer service, you might think that flying is easier than driving, right? Well, maybe not. But more important, money is tight now. When traveling within the continental United States, have you ever wondered whether it was cheaper to fly or drive?
That depends upon how many people are traveling together, what kind of car you have, how much time it will take, and much more.
I have a friend who recently asked me for the cheapest airfare to a destination where his daughter was getting ready to have twins. He was in a HURRY! The airfare was expensive, the departure times were infrequent, and it turned out that if he drove there, it would be faster AND cheaper; plus he would have a car when he arrived there.
That’s not always the case, though. So how can you decide if it’s cheaper to fly or drive?
Use the free Fly or Drive Calculator located at BeFrugal.com!
You will tell it where and when you are going, what type of car you have, how much you would pay for a hotel en route, how many people, etc. The results include how much each option would cost and how long each would take. It even calculates the carbon dioxide impact for each mode of travel.

Or . . . what to do if you don’t have enough time or money to travel this year.
Are you too busy or too broke to take a trip this year? Here are some alternatives. Contact your local Chamber of Commerce for a directory of all the museums, parks, and other attractions in your area, and/or check the Internet. Then go to the ones that interest you! Treat your home town the way you would any new city you’d be visiting. For example, how many New Yorkers have never seen the Statue of Liberty? Yet they’ll fly to Paris to see the Eiffel Tower!
Find out what plays and concerts are being offered by local talent. See what lectures are being held at your local library or college or are being presented by some local organization! What about local sporting events? Speaking of sporting events, try a new sport! Rollerskate, ride your bike, learn how to play tennis or golf or how to swim at the local YMCA; or take dancing or piano lessons!
