When you go to the mountains to ski, the question of buying or renting skis inevitably arises. If you ski less than a week a year, prefer renting, because you will avoid having to maintain equipment that will quickly become obsolete. To rent cheap skis, think about renting between individuals:websites will help you find the equipment you need near your home. If you ski frequently, anticipate your ski trip by buying your equipment during the sales or with promo codes on the internet to get good deals. Also consider the exchange of equipment between individuals:someone who wants to get rid of their skis may need the mower that takes root in your cellar. So why not do each other a favor?
During a ski holiday, a large part of the budget is often spent on food, because of the prices charged within the resort. Between the restaurants and the overpriced convenience stores, it's hard to stay the course on a small budget! To save, again, you have to anticipate. Bringing back the basic groceries you have at home and shopping in the valley or in a shopping center near the highway are simple tips that avoid paying the high price for a week or two of vacation. If you need to get supplies on site, go to the local markets:the products are fresh and often at more affordable prices than at the resort supermarket. Finally, even if the restaurants are tempting, prefer a soup or homemade sandwiches, to be enjoyed in the picnic room of the resort, or a delicious fondue prepared in your chalet.
