Money-saving tips for summer family road trips
- Some nation-wide hotel chains, like Days Inns - Canada, offer great amenities, such as free Daybreak Café breakfast at participating locations, and free high-speed Internet access at all hotels. Stay connected with family and friends on a full stomach – take advantage of these offerings to save you both time and money while on the road. Call 1-800 DAYS INN (1-800-329-7466) for more information.
- Social media is a great tool to try and find a few savings out there. See if your selected hotel is on Twitter or Facebook; maybe they offer “followers” or “fan” discounts. You can also contact the hotel directly to inquire about “hidden” specials they might have. It never hurts to try.
- By staying within the same hotel family throughout your travels, you can often collect loyalty points and redeem these later for free stays and other perks. For instance, by staying at any Days Inn hotel across Canada, you can collect Wyndham Rewards points and redeem these for free stays or gas cards.

- Travelling with the whole family? Booking a suite is a great way to get save a few bucks, while maintaining a bit of privacy as well. Call ahead to the hotel to see if they offer suites; hotels like any Days Inn & Suites location across Canada will offer a wide variety of rooms where the whole family can stay together.
