    Debt Dumpers - 2014

    Sounds like a fantastic trip! I've wanted to see Barcelona since I was a kid so I was just planning a trip there, then my BFF was like umm, how about I meet you in Paris and we can do that for a few days! UMM YES, PLEASE!!! That eventually led to hey, let's do a full-fledged eurotrip! :)...

    January No Buy - let's start the year off right

    I'm in this time! 2013 was a bad year for me... I kinda went crazy with spending and am now in debt for the first time (I'm usually really responsible with my money). So I'd really like to pay this off this year and I am also planning a trip to Europe this summer so I need to save as much...

    Went solo yesterday for the first time and didn't love it.

    Of course everyone is different.... and especially if you're used to going with someone (or the same person always) I could see there could be a bit of a void. I had only been to Disney twice prior to my solo trip and both times I had gone with my ex-boyfriend... so my solo trip was meant to...

    What is your average cost for a solo trip.

    I went on my first solo trip in January :) I scored $300 airfare and stayed for 5 nights with a 6-day regular park tickets.... so airfare, hotel, park admission I think came to $1100 and I brought $240 for food ($40/day) but I didn't need that much, I basically ate one and a half meals eat day...

    It was the first day of our 2nd trip.... my then BF and I had reservations at The Plaza, when we checked in, the hostess told us it would be a 5-10 min wait and apologized for that and handed us an instant FP for any ride we wanted that day :) I was perfectly fine waiting for 5-10 mins, but you...

    What is your Disney shameful secret?

    - The day I returned from my first trip (I was 22)... I told myself "I don't get it. I can wait to go every 3 years or so" FAIL. booked another trip within 3 months! - I cannot stand Tinker Bell - I've never been able to sit through Alice In Wonderland - Dinosaur scares me - I don't...

    First Solo Trip

    My best advice would be to stop, and smell the roses and do you! Eat whatever you want, when you want... stay out all day or sleep in, whatever makes you happy! I just came back from my first solo trip and my break up of a longterm relationship (...though not nearly as long as yours) prompted my...

    Solo trip -where did you stay and why

    I stayed at Pop while I was travelling solo... for a couple reasons: a.) I was familiar with POP since I had stayed there before (so being a single woman, I never felt "lost" or stressed walking throughout the resort) b.) Cost... since I wouldn't be splitting the cost with anyone I figured the...
