According to a recent survey by Decision Research Corp., published in Futurist magazine, busy people will increasingly purchase packages of goods and services. They wish to cut down on the time that they spend deciding which services to buy.

The article went on to exclaim that travel agents will become more involved in booking every aspect of a vacation.

That’s interesting because in many cases trade (barter) exchanges around the country are already providing such “bundled” activities!

For example, they not only provide hotel accommodations, but many times meals in fine restaurants, the use of rental cars and recreational activities such as river rafting, sightseeing, ballooning, and parasailing.

For an exchange in your area (USA or globally) see right-hand column titled “Top Resources.”
