      As for spending money.... my daycare money goes towards all our "variables" in life.... clothing, dining out, vacations, house repairs/upgrades, toys/electronics - any and all of that stuff!! We budget accordingly to afford what we need/want to spend that money on.
      6-7. This included the full meal passes (the top one) and a resort, rather than a hotel room (as it obviously wouldn't fit this many people).
      Flights are also coming from taxes, and the final price included both taxes (it said) so that could've added a huge bonus there.

      I'll have to go through the list of add-ons I chose, to see where it added up so much

        At this point, all of our extra income is going to pay off our debt. I am tired of paying credit card companies and our car loan. I don't think we will ever be completly out of debt, but a $700 car payment will never be part of our monthly budget again.

          Vacations, home improvements (that's what I get for loving old houses with charm), and we are saving to buy an RV. I don't like payments, so we are going to pay for it in cash.

            You have figured out what BOAT stands for - Bust Out Another Thousand :: (yep, we own one, too!)

            Any extra money lately has been going to buy things for my new Grandbaby - we are T-minus 16 days and counting down to the due date happyface.

              Somehow though, we still keep throwing money at it! Must be the fun we get in return!

              Hooray! for your new grandbaby!! Keep us posted! I suppose if and when, I ever get a grandbaby, my boat will be neglected too!
