Bluegreen Colorful Places

Midtown Manhattan. A place known for sky-high everything: buildings, dreams, expectations, and prices. It goes without saying that staying in New York City can cost a pretty penny. But it doesn’t have to. Here’s a couple ideas on spending less than a million during your next vacation to The Manhattan Club.

Here’s the best piece of advice I’ve ever been given. If you’re absolutely dying to do it, then do it. If premier seats for the premier Broadway performance of whatever’s new with Cirque is your must-do event, then by all means – shell out the money. You will be disappointed that you missed it and you’ll have time elsewhere to save money. After all, NYC is about living the good (or big) life so go ahead and splurge a little.

Once you get the big spending out of your system, there’s always ways to save.
