See I thought so too. I was planning on at least taking one of my kids b/c I took DD to a different show last Oct. that the boys weren't interested in and decided they would each get to pick something that we could do just for one on one time like I had with DD so I should at the very least get to put the cost of two tickets into the fund b/c this is the show my 5 year old said he wanted to go to! That sounds perfectly reasonable to me.

Today's Deposit:
$6.50 in coupon savings
$10 - we are cooking chicken tonight that I got for free a few months ago and froze. Since I wasn't actively tracking the fund at that point I never counted in the savings and since I didn't have to buy chicken today at the store I am counting it now.
$46 - 1/2 the cost of the Disney tickets I won for the Live Magic show. ( : I actually won a radio call in contest Friday morning and won and additional 4 tickets for a total of 8 tickets so DH and our neighbors and their son were able to go with us as well so since I won over $200 of tickets for free I feel I should at least get to include the two tickets that I probably would have bought anyway!
$10 - the neighbor that I gave the tickets to bought our kids Mickey Mouse binoculars at the show as a thank you so I didn't spend anything on souvenirs so that saved us $10. ; )
$15 - got $20 out of the ATM last night so we could pay the $5 parking for the show. Remaining $15 goes to the fund.
New total today: $2287.77

No deposits to report yet today but I was doing a few surveys this morning to earn cash in incentives for the fund and I actually got to take a survey on visiting theme parks and primarily Disney World so I got to watch and see various WDW ads!! The most fun survey ever!! LOL! I have about 5 survey sites with incentives to cash in for $20 each so I will get to add that in soon as well!

Finally back to post a deposit. I have been busy tagging, tagging, tagging for a consignment sale that is going on now!! All that I earn from that will go into the fund so I can't wait until Saturday night to see how I've done. Until then, here are my most recent deposits:
$344 - end of the year insurance refund $10.55 - coupon savings $10 - earned giftcards $36 - Disney Visa Reward Points earned last month
I'm not adding it to the total until the check arrives but I just submitted my request for a $25 incentive check from a survey company so that will go in as well!
New total: $2688.32!!!

Thanks so much! It just ended Saturday and from the estimated earnings report I am really excited. I did much better than I thought I did but will know exactly once I get the check in the mail. I picked up my remaining items and am getting ready to list them on craigslist to try and make a little bit more for the fund. We have decided on everything about our trip except where we are going to stay. We are going back and forth between Port Orleans Riverside (we stayed there last time and loved it) or the Polynesian as we've heard great things about that resort and love the idea of the beach. We are just not in the room much so it's hard to justify paying too much for a place we mainly use to shower and sleep!! LOL! But since our fund is going so well so far it might be nice to shoot for something a bit nicer just for once! It's hard to decide! Good luck with your sale. Consignment sale sells seem to be really strong around here lately so maybe that will be the same for your area as well. Everyone here has commented on how well they have done this season so far!
