If you are looking for a unique ladies-weekend trip, consider a shopping weekend. I know, shopping can be intimidating for groups since individuals have different levels on how their budget looks. So, instead of trying to see how much you can spend, see how much you can save by going to one of the outlying outlet malls! This kind of trip would be a fantastic Black Friday adventure. Stock up on gifts for the holidays while enjoying some BFF time.
Grab an inexpensive hotel for the night, right by the outlet so you can save your money for shopping, and then spend a day or two browsing the shops. No need to go out to an expensive meal, instead have everyone chip in for one of the meals and bring a different type of cheeses, meats, and crackers and head poolside for an old-fashioned wine and cheese get-together before or after the shopping trip.
Since this is a budget trip, consider to following:
*Setting a limit to spend that is comfortable for all, and make it a game in which no one can go over budget. This also helps with those that feel that shopping is a competitive sport.
*Set a prize for the person who purchases the best sale priced item.
*Include getting a picture, if possible, of the most hideous item found on sale and vote on it later by the pool.
*If it is a gift-shopping adventure, give a prize to whoever ticks off the most people on their list.
