Not all of us have the time or budget to organize a full-fledged Florida vacation.  Once in a while, little mini-vacations closer to home are the perfect solution.

There are lots of opportunities online to plan and budget a short get away that’s close to home.  For example, discount travel websites like jaunt.ca offers luxury-inspired staycations and local travel packages at up to 60 per cent off.  Destinations include Canadian and American cities.

If you’re looking to go stateside, checking out State travel authorities is a good idea.  They often catalog regional travel packages, day-trips, and specials that could help make your stay in the US easier to plan.

In the future, we’ll take a closer look at some of the trips that can be taken just over our southern border.  In the meantime, connect with our Facebook and Twitter pages to stay up to date with the latest Duty Free Canada news, in addition to sharing your experiences and recommendations there.
