No one ever argued this point, .
Not on this thread, but I did actually once argue with someone here on the DIS that insisted that a Disney vacation was, in fact, a need.

LOL - sounds like an addiction. I need my WDW fix.
This is probably kind of a 'controversial' subject but does anyone go into debt to go to Disney? We can't be the only ones and it would make me feel better to know that!
If they aren't asking you to pay off their debt, why is it your business?
What is worthy of debt to some is not worthy of debt to others. Doesn't make anyone right or wrong, as long as both parties are paying their own bills.
I sort of agree that it should be as easy to save before vacation as it is after but I also know how much that is easier said than done. I have known people that get a loan every year for vacation (Disney, beach, whatever). They pay on the loan for 12 months, pay it off and then get another loan for the next vacation. Its the way they choose to do it. Heck, I have known people that do that every year to pay for Christmas gifts.
I don't put an entire vacation on a credit card, but I do sometimes put half of it on, sometimes I don't. Just depends on what's happening at the moment in our lives.
As for it doesn't have to be a $3000 vacation to fulfill your kids. Disney doesn't have to be a $3000 vacation. And I have found that a beach vacation with buying food and going to amusement parks, arcades, etc. isn't a tremendous amount of money cheaper than Disney. Could we go without all that? Sure, but we choose not to and if we put some of the extra stuff on plastic, as long as we pay it off--I don't have an issue with it.

If you pay your credit card off in full every single month and never carry a balance there is no reason not to just use a debit card.
