    Explanation
    The correct answer choices for this question are pack lightly and efficiently, bring along a few basic first aid supplies, and travel during the "off season" to save money. These tips are all related to saving money and being prepared while traveling. Packing lightly and efficiently can save on baggage fees and make it easier to move around.

    A. Redeem unused gift cards, coupons, and certificates
    A. Check newspaper, radio, or television for area events, festivals, and local celebrations
    Explanation
    Exploring the U.S. National Park system usually costs little or no money because many national parks offer free admission or have low entrance fees. Purchasing discount pro baseball tickets from walk-in sales staff can be a cost-effective way to enjoy a vacation as these tickets are often sold at a reduced price. Redeeming unused gift cards, coupons, and certificates can also help save money as they can be used towards various vacation expenses. Checking newspaper, radio, or television for area events, festivals, and local celebrations can provide free or low-cost entertainment options during a vacation. Flying overseas during the holidays is not a cost-effective way to take a vacation as international flights tend to be expensive.

U.S. National Parks offer a range of low-cost outdoor activities and camping options, making them a budget-friendly choice for nature enthusiasts.

    • It’s required by federal law

    • It builds morale, creating more effective and productive employees

    A. Employees need an occasional break to be more effective at work
    Explanation
    Providing vacation benefits (PTO: paid time off) to employees has positive reasons such as building morale, creating more effective and productive employees. This is because employees who have time off to relax and recharge are more likely to be motivated and engaged in their work. Additionally, employees need occasional breaks to be more effective at work as it helps them to avoid burnout and maintain a healthy work-life balance. These benefits also provide a good opportunity for the employer to cross-train other employees, enhancing their skills and versatility.
