Hi--new to this forum, not new to the blog. I've seen a lot of good savings tips here. I am curious how everyone balances their Disney savings with other financial goals (like retirement, having an emergency fund, saving for kids' college, etc.) How do you prioritize? Thanks.

well all i do right now is with the extra change i have left over from the weekly budget, for groceries, entertainment etc i throw in a container and that is my savings for disney right now. I could do other stuff but i also have a trip for my sons school to plan for now for 2013 so what i am doing for that is open up a seperate account and put money in there for it( this would be the money that i have been saving for other items. It is hard to prioritize and things change every year or even sometimes monthly. I have a budget and a spot for specific items, i don;t have a emergency fund right now but the money that i am putting towards my sons trip could be that ( as we are fundraising so we get it back, well as much as we fundraise) i have money come out every month for myolder 3 kids . I would sit down with your budget and add all teh items in for now and what you think would come up and see what you can do.
