Now that it’s getting cooler and crowds have thinned out some we are planning a trip to the zoo. These tips are a great way to save money and some you might not think of before getting there.
Whenever we go to the zoo we always have snacks and a lunch packed. I’m very grateful that our zoo allows us to bring stuff in. It is a huge money saver.
These are great tips. We miss the St. Louis Zoo because admission is free. The zoo in our town, Chattanooga, is not free and the extra costs add up quick.
I love these tips! We used to have a zoo membership and it saved us so much money. Not to mention, we took many more trips to the zoo when we did have the membership. Admission was already paid for, so it was something we could do throughout the year if we didn’t have anything else to do.
I am all about packing lunches and drinks when it comes to trips at parks and zoos. I agree, even admission tickets are pricey, but you pointed some good tricks to make sure you save some money!
We love to go to the Zoo. It is always such a fun day with the kids. These are great ways to save money. I will have to pack our own lunches next time we go.
These are all great tips! We always say getting drinks on “the outside”is such a waste of money when a water bottle is all you need! And yes to packing lunch!
Visiting the zoo can be so expensive! We try to always pack a lunch when we do outings like this. I like the idea of bringing a refillable water bottle! My boys would want to bring ways to flavor the water, so that’s a great tip!
It is so true going to the zoo, or anywhere with the family when you have multiple kids gets really expensive just with admission costs. But bringing your own food and drinks is definitely a great way to save a lot of money.

I love that you bring your own drinks! At upwards to $5 per drink at parks, this is a great tip!!
These are definitely some good zoo strategies. We definitely have to remember to pack our own lunches.

We are lucky to live close to the Zoo. It has been a favorite of ours to go and see all the animals. I always pack a lunch and lots of drinks.
These are all really great tips! We always have water bottles and snacks when we go to the zoo.
Love your tips! We always bring water, but never thought about bringing flavoring too
We always pack lunch too! We try to only buy popcorn and fish food when we cross the bridge lol!

Our Zoo is so expensive and everything cost as much as in any large amusement park. We very rarely go there!
I love going to the zoo but it does get expensive. Buying a membership is definitely the way to go.
The prices of food and drink at the zoo can get quite costly. Packing a picnic and bringing your own water bottle to refill is smart.
these are awesome tips. thanks so much for sharing.
