Just a quick note to share a recent NY Times Frugal Traveler article Sampling the Best of the Northwest’s Bounty (November 25, 2007). Author Matt Gross recounts his affordable weekend in Seattle, spending a total of $392.39 for accommodations, food and drink, taxi and bus fare. Matt says “The secret of a weekend on a budget: happy hour.”

Click on the link above to read the full article, including all the info on where Matt stayed, ate, drank, had fun, and shopped (he’s a guy, so only mentioned one store — the “garage” for discounted outdoor gear at REI’s flagship store).
