Food: Stop someone on the street (who looks like they know their good food) and ask if the restaurant the locals go to. You can be pretty sure that when you find places that are cheaper and perhaps even more exciting than the ones located in turiststreamen. Expensive breakfast in the hotel? Check the price of the café "down totally history the street. Have you rented apartment? You might think that the food you will certainly totally history not make yourself totally history - it's so cheap to eat out? Are you on holiday in France, Spain, Italy etc. then it is gorgeous cheap raw materials everywhere and you can make wonderful dishes totally history in no time at home. It can be a good and exciting alternative to eating out in cheap restaurants every day. Visit local butchers, vegetable vendors and supermarkets. It provides holiday totally history an additional dimension. If you bring a garlic press and a small food processor home, you can quickly and easily make tomato sauce from fresh sun-ripened tomatoes and pesto sauce with fresh ingredients and a good local olive oil. Also, remember to try the local cheeses. Ask which to choose, so you'll probably tastings. Do you have a car, find love to a local farm that sells their own products. And not least the drink to the food ... if you eat at home you can treat yourself to the super market's most expensive wine .. rather totally history than pay the same for a half decent wine at the restaurant. Some supermarkets have good wine on offer. Bring a small (folded) frysebag on holiday. Great to take along on the beach - filled with cold drinks (and maybe some savory biscuits). Easily accessible, small charge. Are you + 3 children 2 adults totally history daily purchases on the beach be quite a little fortune.
Shopping: Duty free? Check prices at home (preferably via network) on what you intend to shop tax free ... not everything is cheaper on tax free. Wine shop happily cheapest at a local supermarket. It may also be wise to ask a sommelier on site where you can buy good local wine.
Excursions, car hire: Check destination on the internet before you go. What does it cost to book car rental on-site versus home? Many have discounts on car hire at home, not all agreements "works" totally history when you book car hire at your destination. Possible m transit where you are going? Cost? Is there a "tourist card" containing discounts to such bus, rail, museums, cinema etc etc. User shops on-site discount coupons? Norwegians are not so familiar with it, but in many countries cut one out and bring to the store and get discount .. take the habit wherever you are! Check experiences of other tourists who have been to the same destination. Many beautiful sites, search via Google.
General: Remember to bring a bag, flat packed in the suitcase. Nice to have if you shop a bit like it should be space in an already crowded briefcase. Remember to bring your backpack, totally history nice to have the longer city tours / walking. If you've rented apartment where you need to bring duvet covers and sheets, bring a tired one that you can throw after use, so you can fit in the bag for acquisitions goods. That way you can avoid having to pay for extra luggage on the plane. Check the cancellation totally history conditions. Some places have very good prices on book such as hotel rooms well in advance, often when no cancellation option. Check how much discount you get to choose a solution ... and check also what it costs to order the cancellation right. May be little difference - and may want in case you need to redo. Pay in local currency, on the local shopkeepers will give you "exchange rate" you can assume that it differs greatly from the official exchange rate - to your disadvantage.
