    Traveling shorter and sitting longer is great! So are Cracker Barrels, HH & BW!! Stocking up at Walmart is what we have noticed helps & buying generic bands for some things.

    • @RVAmerica

    As far as not shopping in "little bitty towns", not all are the same. Our small town of 3000 has a family owned grocery/butcher shop that has THE best meat prices. The chain grocery store is lower- priced for most canned, boxed or paper goods, but our little bitty family-owned butcher shop in town is the place for meats. So ask locals where THEY shop. You may stumble on a gem of a tiny store.

    • @RVAmerica
      @RVAmerica  4 месяца назад

      We actually never buy our meat at the big chain stores. I did not think of putting that in here, but we should have. The area where we're in did not have a second choice.it was a tourist town. So those are more the type areas that we're talking about. This was a great comment. Thanks so much. Save travels.

    Awesome thumbnail!! Great video with fantastic tips!! We laughed when you mentioned the gas nilage since we have the same rig we understood very well. We try to save money in all the same ways you do. Our longest trip all at once has been 19 days straight and we love harvest host but as we get to longer trips and more full time we will for sure add boondockers welcome and some other boondocking. I do stock up at Costco before I leave and also avoid those small stores in smaller towns. Oh that video of the person at the gas station was scary!! Miss u guys love your tips and always love your videos!

    • @RVAmerica
      @RVAmerica  4 месяца назад

      The milage in our rigs really does stink. Nothing really helps. We actually like Boondockers Welcome better than we do harvest hoast. It's less expensive to stay up, and we get hookups usually. 19 days is a good while. You are going to live being retired. You will never want to go home. Lol. We save money every way we can. We miss you guys too. ❤️. Safe travels. 😊

      I totally get that. I had an instant pot and really never used it. I guess I'm too used to the crackpot. Safe travels, but not too far. We want you around for a while. 😉

  • @alicesabatini1608
    @alicesabatini1608 4 месяца назад

    Harvest Host now suggests a $30 purchase or donation. We dropped our HH membership because we found that with a lifetime senior pass it’s less expensive to stay at COE campgrounds that always have water and electric included. Campgrounds are always clean and safe and well managed. We trip route to stay at as many COE campgrounds as possible. No annual fee with a lifetime senior pass.
    We I cook at home I always freeze leftovers or cook for more than one meal. When we load up the RV for a trip, I just take along those frozen meals and heat in the microwave or oven. That allows to eat for very little cost and the food is what we know we’ll like.

    • @RVAmerica
      @RVAmerica  4 месяца назад

      I didn't know they had raised it. We really like Boondockers. Welcome better than harvest host. If we pay anything, it's 5 or 10 a night. Danny will be able to get the life pass in April. We think it will open a huge amount of savings for us. We can't wait. We definitely plan to make use of those once we can. I'll admit I'm not good at freezing meals. I do some. It is something I really need to work on.
      Great comment. Thanks so much. Hope you have a great week. 😊

    Love GasBuddy. Use it all the time. It does work on the road especially out west. West is the most expensive gas. I always buy groceries outside the small towns.

    Oh man that video clip of that guy taking out the gas station. Dang! Yes even us in a car we search for cheapest gas too. We use the App for Pilot/Flying J which offers 10 cents a lot! WaWa has deals too for gas. We are very frugal travelers too! You have to be to stretch your trips out longer. We travel with a BBQ Grill too. Also another thing we do to eat healthier and save money is to get salad mix at a grocery store and a few fresh veggies. Nice salad for all three of us for under $10 most of the time. Safe travels you two! Great tips and video!

    • @RVAmerica

    Hey Lynn & Danny! Great information! Good presentation! I’ll have to transform from sticks and bricks grocery buying to RV camper grocery buying soon! That’ll be a good thing bc I’ll be eating a lot less due to making more videos, traveling, and, sightseeing…so, therefore I’ll lose a lot of weight which I’ve been trying to do without much success since I retired! 🥺 Safe travels and happy trails! ~Jim~

    Get a credit card with a rebate for fuel. Sams (5%), Costco (4%), Citi Double Cash, (2% on all purchases) etc. You normally have to go to a which makes the charge as a fuel charge. As an FYI. most rebate CC do not give the fuel rebate at Buckee's since they list all purchases as regular purchases. You can make bigger savings by using fuel station reward/discounts with the rebates with a fuel rebate CC.
