Do you plan to cut back on your summer vacation plans due to the economic environment?

The summer is officially here! This is usually a time for many of us to hit the road and take those long awaited summer vacations.

However, the economic situation is having some rethink their summer vacation plans and anticipated spending.

Are you reconsidering summer plans due to the economic environment? If so, what will you plan to do instead?

Yes (54.4%)

No (23.6%)

Maybe, I haven't decided yet (22.0%)

    We are retired...living in a resort community with 6 golf courses and much to do. Also both girls...one lives in PA the other in TX most of our vacation monies we have aside goes to airline tickets visiting them and our grandchildren. If I had a lot of money, I would travel more but life is good where we are too. Vacations are what you make of them whether they be stay at home doing local things or travelling around the world. Memories and taking time to smell the roses is what life is about.

    I just took a week long "stay-cation"--catching up on projects around the house & reading a few good books was so relaxing!

    We will be just doing things locally and at home, but will still enjoy spending time together as a family!

    we are stii working but we are not secure at work so it feels scary to take a real vacation. We are trying to stay local this summer.

    there are a lot of local things that you can do, and be sure to call around and find out with the off season is with different resorts or motels to get great deals. And the great stand-bye is a movie and popcorn at home!

    Home state vacations or day trips are a great way to explore local tourist attractions and learn more about it's history. We never tire of the Adirondacks or Manhattan in our state

    We will be doing more locally, having picnics at the park, etc. instead of a long vacation. We can't afford to go anywhere and I can't afford to take time off from work.

    I'm an unemployed single mother. No where around where I live is hiring. I'm not even sure where else I could apply. But hopefully I will be able to give my son a good summer vacation in the town we live in.
