Vacation Savings Tracker
Instead of just dreaming about your next trip, start making it happen with our free printable vacation savings tracker. No matter if you’re planning a quick road trip or a big international adventure, this visual 'suitcase' challenge makes saving money simple and stress-free.
Break your total trip cost into 20 easy steps and watch your 'luggage' fill up as your travel date approaches.
How to use the visual tracker template to fund your dream trip?
A vacation is always more enjoyable when you know it's already paid for. Here's how you can use our tracker to make sure you come back with great memories instead of credit card bills:
- Figure out the total cost of your trip. Don't just think about flights—remember to include things like your packing list essentials, meals out, and activities. Write your total savings goal at the top of your tracker.
- Break your goal into smaller parts by dividing the total amount by 20. For example, if your trip costs $2,000, each section you color in on the tracker represents $100 saved.
- Try to finish your tracker about two weeks before your trip. This way, you’ll have a little extra time to save some spending money for unexpected souvenirs or special meals.
Why visual tracking works for travel goals?
Travel is something we look forward to, so it feels more emotional than other goals. A Vacation Savings Tracker is different from a bill tracker because it shows a reward.
Each time you color in part of the suitcase, your brain sees progress toward something fun. This little boost makes it easier to skip impulse buys and save for your next trip instead.
