Despite some technical difficulties (sorry about the disconnects and the weird thumping from JD’s mic), the sixth episode of the Personal Finance Hour was chock full of great advice on traveling. Jim and JD share their approach to saving on travel and shared some tips sent in my readers and folks on Twitter.

Tune in for next week’s show on gardening!

Posts of the Week

Jim really liked Cody’s post 22 Awesome Tips for Travelers because it gave some great detailed tips on how you can save money.

JD liked a post at The Digerati Life written about Tricia of Blogging Away Debt: How To Pay Off Credit Card Debt: A Success Story. SVB does a great job breaking down Tricia’s debt pay down and takes away some solid lessons.
