How much money can you make by traveling to places? I'm on a $3000 budget and willing to go to places if it makes sense. Are there any products I can purchase by going to Mexico or the islands that would make the trip worth it? I know the Caribbean is famous for jewlry. Or has the internet made traveling for purchasing pointless? If I were to spend $500-$1000 traveling I'd want be make good money from investing in the remaining $2000. Are there any item I can get on wholesale down there where I would save 60-70% from buying it on wholesale in the United States.

Without having at least some kind of idea, leads or contacts it would be worthless in most cases. Make your research over the Internet, get some contacts in first place.
If you're looking for unique products that can't be found over the net, go to trade shows.
The easiest way to do it is buy local... whatever they make [as a cottage industry] in the area you are visiting... avoid the big tourist traps and go native where the people are poor and earn their living best they can but produce something to earn extra cash., and always keep your eyes open for something unique or a deviation of the norm.
