Three pals went on a 1,288-mile trip to a spa in Romania and it cost them less than one in London.
Saira Lawlor, 34, Sabrina Johnson, 33, and 29-year-old Chloe Newton paid just £123 each.
They took a three-hour, five-minute flight from Stansted Airport to Bucharest.
The savvy trio then visited the Therme wellness centre in the Romanian capital.
They relaxed in and by the pools, plus had dinner and drinks.

Saira, Sabrina, and Chloe then headed home after their 16-hour trip.
Return flights cost £44, the spa set them back £28 and they spent £6 each on taxis.
They also spent £45 while there on renting a robe and towels, massage beds, a two-course lunch, two cocktails, a soft drink, and dessert.
Saira told What’s The Jam: “This was much cheaper than going on a spa day in the UK.
“I think this is a great way to see cities and embrace new experiences.”
A spa afternoon at London Marriott Hotel Park Lane for example costs £198 per person – £75 more.
Saira and her two pals made the trip last Friday (9 Feb).
She added: “We wanted to do a girl’s day out, including a spa day at a reasonable cost.
“Also it’s a city I don’t think we would be looking to spend more than 24 hours in.
“Flying triggers panic attacks for me and I’m hoping my doing more frequent trips will help me overcome my fear.”
Last month, Lauren Francis, 24, of Chiswick made the same trip costing her £136 all in.
Flights: £44
Taxi: £6
Spa: £28
Bill £45
Total = £123
