My fund has exactly 3250.52. My goal is $4000 by late September.
There will be 3 adults and 3 children. We are staying in a Cabin @ Fort Wilderness. We have a 6 day package which includes accomdations, park pass (no hopper), a the Dining Plan Plus. Our package for the Disney part itself is a little under 2700, so now I'm funding extra meals, souviners, and other extra cost.
I have funded our trip by buying and reselling items on Craigslist and Ebay. I also partcipate in a few garage sales here and there throughout the summer.

Yes..we are doing the free Dining Plan. Our Disney portion of the trip is actually under 2700. My mom will be staying with us, but I told her we would pay for everything in the package, she paying for the hotel stays we need on the way there and back (we are traveling from Indiana).
I"m trying to save extra so we can splurge and all expenses are covered and wont have to come out of "reg" savings. Whatever is leftover will be applied to the trip dh and I are taking next year ALONE!

My total right now is 3350.52. Hoping by the end of the week to add almost another $200 from different money making things I've done. I will post those as I make the offical "deposit' into the bank. We leave in 6 weeks..so I have 5 weeks to add to the fund.
