Chicago on the Cheap

How I did Chicago for under $500:

1. Find $200 round trip tickets on www.travelzoo.com - call a friend to come with you and buy immediately.

2. Stay at Mil's place instead of a pricey hotel for $85 a night! https://www.airbnb.com/rooms/159801 or check out www.airbnb.com
- This is a cool website. Just make sure they have lots of good reviews and you'll be good! This was my first airbnb experience and it was absolutely perfect!

3. Buy a 3 day CTA pass for $20 to have access to all public transportation for 3 days (hint: don't lose your pass and have to buy another one though - like I did. Duh!)

4. Splurge on the good stuff like the Skydeck ($18), all the deep dish pizza you can eat (it's pretty cheap!), the Art Institute ($17. eh, it was alright), and the architectural cruise with the coolest tour guide ever ($32).

5. See the free sites! The bean, Millenium park, Navy Pier, the beach, and the shops!
