I just discovered this website in late June:) I read all I could on how to save extra $ so we could go to Disneyland in October 2012! I tried the envelope system in July and will never stop! I love it! It has saved us so many arguements because the debit card is no longer an issue:)
Our plan is to go to Disneyland during the week of Fall break, approximately October 6-October 12, 2012. We want to see Disneyland during the Hallween season and go to the Mickey's Halloween party. There are seven total going, including my mom:) Here is my budget:
Hotel/tickets $4000.00 (hotel is suite w/ full kitchen)
Gas $ 200.00
Food $ 200.00
Souveniers $ 200.00
Total $4600.00
My mom is going to pay for some food, gas and the tickets to the Halloween party:)
I started saving the change from each dollar broken last month and hit $70!!! I have $40 left from my last pay check for a total of $110.00 to date. My goal is to start saving all of my pay checks from September 2011 through October 2012 ( I only work 3 days a month) I get paid the 1st and 15th of each month for a total of $300 per month average. If I manage to save all of it I will have $4100 by October!!! I plan on continuing to add change and anything left over from the budget will go to the funds.
