Do you travel on airplanes a lot?

Jim has been flying a lot more lately, and one thing he saw in the airport recently is definitely something I’m looking forward to trying.

Psst… I was just flipping through an old issue of Budget Travel, and they actually had a little blurb about doing this exact same thing. So it’s not just me who thinks this is a great idea!

A Cheapskate Idea

This one is simple, but true.

Who knows, maybe everyone in the world has thought of it (or already does this), and I’m just way behind the times.

But I’m going to do it from now on…

The best part: it’s FREE!

 

Don’t Pay For Expensive Airport Water!

The fact of the matter is, you cannot get through airport security these days with a bottle of water in tow — or any beverage for that matter.

Yet, after you get through security at the airport, you are free to purchase water that’s for sale at the airport snack shops.

And yes, you can even carry that bottle of water on the plane with you.

But, instead of paying for expensive bottled water at the airport, you can actually pack (and get through security with) an empty water bottle of your own tucked inside your carry-on luggage.

Then, just fill up your own empty water bottle at a drinking fountain that’s located beyond the security check!

(…That is, unless you have issues with drinking water fountain water.)

From Budget Travel (March 2007):

Avoid paying high prices for bottled water at airports by carrying empty bottles through security and then filling them up at a water fountain.”
— Ted Blumenstein, Rocklin, California

I love my kitchen… and I like to cook. But my #1 requirement is that recipes have fewer than 7 ingredients (or arrive on my doorstep via a food delivery service). My absolute favorite thing about being in the kitchen is trying out new gadgets, cookware, and storage containers! I'm SUPER organized in the kitchen (and everywhere else) and I have every gadget I could possibly need neatly and compactly tucked away until I need it. I share only the simplest recipes (which is great for people who don't like to cook), along with time-saving food tips and cooking tricks (that will save you time and money). When I'm not cooking, cleaning, or organizing my kitchen… you can find me at the corner of Good News & Fun Times as publisher of The Fun Times Guide (32 fun & helpful websites).

CurtisOne of my all-time favorite "hobbies" is cooking at home! I especially enjoy experimenting with new ingredients ...and different types of cookware. My specialties are foods that are diabetic-friendly, keto-friendly, and low-carb. I share my favorite recipes and cooking tips here at The Fun Times Guide to Food.
