Thanks for the tip! I love the idea of a house swap in theory but then when I think about strangers in my house I think it might be weird. So thanks for the sites for other frugal accommodations. Something else to look into is time share rentals — owners who can’t make their week will sell the stay to others, often at steep discount. Check your local Craig’s List (or Craig’s List where you want to stay) for advanced planning and last-minute deals of all kinds.
That’s an awesome tip! Thanks. I hope that others give it a shot!
