The Budget Diet

A diet for your wallet...not your waistline!

I’ve been busy this week looking for a beach house to rent for our summer vacation, and then I discovered HomeExchange.com!

Home Exchange…the name says it all! I stay in your house, you stay in mine! Imagine the savings…your budget will love you!

Hotel rooms are expensive, stay in a loft in Manhattan, a ski condo in Aspen, or a beach house in Australia. It’s free.

Here’s how it works:

* Membership is $9.95 per month

* Members are allowed UNLIMITED home exchanges with no other charges! Make yourself at home anywhere in the world, live like a local and stay for FREE. 28,000+ Worldwide Listings

* Good news…if you don’t exchange your first year, your second year membership is FREE! What do you have to lose?

* Ideal for second homes!

* Don’t rule out Home Exchange just because you live in a non-touristy destination like Houston, Texas! It’s worth a try!

Do the math…

Home Exchange Membership: 1 year, $9.95 per month for a total of $119.40

1 Night at an Average Hotel: At least $100 a night!

There’s a reason Budget Travel & The L.A. Times are raving about Home Exchange.

Now the big question…anybody interested in coming to Houston, Texas???
