Just won a ticket to the VMAs, what should I do?

1 Answer

Answer :

Plan ahead, search around for cheap hotel packages and deals… and consider motels if possible. Pack some food, a loaf of bread, nuts/trail mix, canned goods… low cost things that you can feed yourself with from your room, things that don’t necessarily require refrigeration. Eating out for every meal is costly. Oh, and yay! How cool for you. Congrats!
