If you stay home, you are not, nor ever will be, on vacation. You will still be taking care of the day to day stuff like you are... home!

amirite?

Staycations usually entail staying at a nicer hotel, going to the zoo or amusement park ...

It cuts out travel costs.

Just because you are still staying in your own home doesn't mean you can't go out and do vacation like activities in your area.

This would be like me taking a day off to take the kids to the aquarium, to Six Flags, hiking, etc. Something that I can do within driving distance of my house.

"staycation" is still a better term than "funployment"

I'd rather stay home and watch TV all day than go somewhere and do shit just for the sake of doing shit.
