First of all, may you be healthy!
Health is one of the things you shouldn’t save your money on. Nevertheless, a majority of Poles go to the doctor’s only when something is wrong. Of course, this results in costly doctor’s appointments, expensive prescription drugs, and sometimes – in the necessity to perform a specialist procedure, often not reimbursed by the health services. In this case prevention is better than cure. Periodic diagnostic tests and annual dentist’s visits will let you quickly check the condition of your body and, if necessary, allow you to take the next steps. If you don’t want to spend hours in queues or spend much money on doctor’s appointments, join the CitiSpecials program and pay up to 30% less at the ALfa-Lek medical center.
Plan a holiday!
A holiday is a great opportunity to charge your batteries. And so is its planning – the mere anticipation improves your mood, and also gives you time to prepare financially for the big expense. How can you enjoy the tropical sun without financial remorse?
Let’s start with the most obvious tip – early planning of the holiday. It turns out you can save up to several hundred zlotys if you buy a summer holiday trip still during winter! Going on a holiday right after the season is also a good idea. This will allow you not only to pay less, but also to avoid the biggest crowds. When on holiday, it is also beneficial to go see sights independently. You can rent a car and go on a trip choosing the way and locations you want. By doing this, you can get to know the local culture better and see far more than during a traditional guided tour ticking the subsequent items off the list of tourist attractions. Where can you rent a car that will take you wherever you want and bring a lot of fun? You can always find a car rental right after you’ve landed or book a car in advance. In the latter case, you may be interested in using the services of Hertz, a company which offers CitiSpecials members a 10% discount.
What’s the new year going to be like depends greatly on you. With the right attitude and a little bit of help you can adopt habits that will make you healthier, happier and richer – and not only enriched with new memories.
