A Philadelphia-area influencer is discussing the cost of a Jersey Shore vacation. "Every year, we pay $10,000 to come down to the Jersey Shore," the influencer said in the video. Once regarded as an affordable beach getaway, Jersey Shore getaways have now increased exponentially over recent years. "I live at the Jersey Shore, and I can promise you [that] nothing you rent is worth $10,000!" Duane Watlington, founder of Vacation Rentals Jersey Shore, which operates websites featuring more than 3,100 vacation rentals, has another take on the situation.
