Spend smart. Pack right. Travel happy.
A trip is more fun when the money is planned and the bag is packed right. The Trip Budget & Packing Planner Mini is a bright, easy-to-use 12-page PDF that takes your trip from "I should plan this" to "I am ready" in one sitting. Fill it in on your phone or computer, or print it and take it along.
This post shares three free sample pages from the mini planner, so you can try it before you buy. The full pack is on Gumroad for $2.99.
What is inside the mini planner
The full 12-page pack (printable and fillable PDF) includes: Start Here guide — a simple 3-step trip money and packing system; Trip Snapshot — destination, dates, travellers, total budget, and your daily spending budget; Budget Planner — 8 categories, planned vs actual vs difference, plus a handy suggested split chart; Daily Spending Tracker — 14 days of easy logging with an "under budget?" tick box; Money-Saving Cheat Sheet — 12 quick wins that add up; Essentials Checklist — documents, tech, health and safety, plus your own extras; Clothing & Care Checklist — with quantity boxes, toiletries, and bag extras; Pack by Trip Type — beach, city, adventure, and winter extras; Countdown Timeline — 8 milestones from 8 weeks out to departure day; Trip Wrap-Up — totals, best splurge, souvenirs, rating, and memories.
Sample 1 — Start Here / 3-step system
How to use it
The 3-step system is simple: 1. Set the budget. Fill in the Trip Snapshot (where, when, who, total budget), then split it across the 8 categories in the Budget Planner. 2. Track as you go. Log spending each day on the Daily Spending Tracker and tick "under budget?" at the end of each day. Small daily notes beat one big surprise at the end of the trip. 3. Pack with the checklists. Work through the Essentials and Clothing checklists, add the extras for your trip type (beach, city, adventure, or winter), and follow the Countdown Timeline so nothing is left to the last night.
The Money-Saving Cheat Sheet is worth reading before you book anything: flying smart, staying just outside the centre, eating like a local, using a no-fee card, paying in local currency, and booking big sights online are 12 easy wins that add up fast.
