Money-Saving Tips
Shift your main meal to lunch at the meat-and-three restaurants instead of dinner, the same cornbread, greens, and pulled pork costs 30-40% less at noon.
Use the downtown trolley system which is free and connects major attractions
Slide your base to midtown or East Montgomery. Hotels there run 20-30% cheaper than their downtown siblings and still keep you within a ten-minute drive.
Visit museums during their free admission days (typically Tuesdays)
Team up in the rideshare queue at the airport. Splitting an Uber drops the $30-35 fare to $15-18 each and the conversation is free.
Common Budget Mistakes to Avoid
Booking downtown hotels during legislative sessions when rates spike 50-80%
Avoid eating every meal at Riverfront restaurants, prices there run 2-3x higher than what you'll pay at neighborhood spots two streets back.
Taking taxis everywhere instead of using the free downtown trolley system
