I'm always broke and this is what I do. I find pictures, maps, hotels and anything I can out about a place I wanna go. I check the prices of airfare, the best hotels in that area,ect. This accomplishes several things. First,Visualization, a form of positive thinking. Instead of thinking about being stuck at home I am imagining myself being there. What restaurants are there, what color the sand on the beach is. It helps you relax and for a brief moment you feel like your there. Secondly it gives me an idea, a goal of what I will need to save in order to get there. Third if you make plans in your mind it helps you accomplish your goal.
Ask,Believe, Receive!

I just take some time for myself with no interruptions from the outside world if possible. I don't answer the phone, I hang out in comfy clothes and watch whatever I want on TV, I order out food, I catch up on some reading etc etc. I kind of just let the world go by and just do the things I have do because of responsibilities such as work and bills. Basically I get lazy for a few days to a week.

Read a book while listening to your favorite music.
The easiest and most inexpensive escape from reality.
In the words of Eric of That 70s Show (I think hahaha), "Why do I need to go out into the world when all the people in these books can do it for me?"
:D

I have many friends who have cottages and they are always inviting me to visit on the weekends. This gets me through the rough times when I cannot afford a vacation on my own. Try it, it really works.

When I have been on special trips in the past, I have made "mental movies" of the things I've seen. Then when I need a break, I sit quietly and think about these places.
Good luck.

I go down to the travel agents and pick up lots of brochures for fun holidays and read them, choose where to stay, plan my trip...even if I never get there, it's a cheap and easy way to travel...happy holidays!!

I go to a local park and just hang out. Who said you have to do much of anything to just get away?

You have no choice but to keep going on. A mini get away does wonders.

The beach is free and fun. Don't have a beach? Visit the lake.
