I just returned from a fantastic family vacation to Tybee Island, Georgia. My sister is living in Savannah for the summer, so we killed two birds with one stone by visiting her and checking off a beach vacation.
If you're like me, you can't plan for the perfect vacation without a million lists. There's always a packing list, a "places to see" list, and if I'm really on top of things, there's normally even a full itinerary.
Thankfully, I had the budget checklist below to help me think of everything I might have to pay for and keep myself in check. Because otherwise, unexpected expenses that we hadn't prepared for could have made our budget-friendly weekend getaway quite expensive.
