All of us budget for food, lodging, and transportation expenses when we're traveling, but only some people have a separate budget for vacation shopping. Are you one of them?

It depends where I am going.. if it's somewhere more scenic, then no. I just enjoy the great outdoors. If it's somewhere more known for fabulous shopping, then yes.
1Agree - totally depends on where I am going!
2Yeah, it depends on where I'm going too. If I'm spending a long weekend up north in a secluded cabin, there isn't much to buy. But if I'm going to be in a big city where there are stores that they don't have near me, I plan on visiting them for sure.
3I live in a big enough city that I can pretty much get anything I want around town. So when I'm traveling I almost never shop.
I lived in the boonies for a year a while back though, and I definitely took time out to shop when I traveled that year. There wasn't anything for miles except Walmart!
4it depends on where i am actually. there are places that i would like to make time for shopping and others that it's just not a priority.
5It depends where I am, but usually, yes :]
6Domestically, probably not. But if I was in a different country I would definitely have to shop.
7I voted something else b/c it also depends on where I am going.
8I always buy something when I travel. Even if its something small so it can remind me of the trip and I can be so obnoxious and say, "Oh I got it from .... "
9Yes, but more so for souvenirs (not the tacky kind) for friends and family, not myself.
10Always.
11it's my main priority
12always
Depends on where we're going.
13even if its at a little place with a gift shop ill get something lol. but i usually go abroad,so of course, thats what i save my money for!! your dollar is worth sooo much more there, and the stuff that they sell there is cheaper then here (imtalking about clothes and other ethnic pieces)
14Depends on where I am and for how long. Why waste your time in a mall or shopping center if you're only there for a short while.
15Of course! That is why I pack a suitcase and then put it into a larger, empty suitcase - I need room for all the stuff I am buying! (A collapsible bag also works)
