Disney on a very tight budget .....Am I CrAzy!!!

[klacey1]

$100 each on souveniers is "a very tight budget"? Plus BBB and Pick a pearl? To me, that actually sounds like a pretty extravagant trip!

But it sounds great! I hope you and your family have a wonderful time!

I second this. If your goal was "budget," you could have cut MANY corners. However, it sounds like a very lovely 11 night vacation. I wouldn't say, however, $10 per each WS country. You could end up finding something for $20 or $30 in Italy and nothing in Germany. I wouldn't limit myself so strictly.

Thank you for all your comments,, I think I am right on track with my budget and I will be adding on money for tipping the housekeeping staff because I work at a hotel up here in MI and housekeeping is one of my jobs and i know even at what i make and working 40 hours i could still not afford it on my own.....we are only doing 2 sit down meals and they are at CRT and 1900 both are breakfasts so one is already paid for including my tip (CRT) and if there is anything that i really want over 20 .00 I just write down the UPC number, take a picture and where its at and then if i really want it when i get home I can call Disney merchandising to order it... I figure by the time I get home I will have changed my mind anyway ..LOL .....Thank again

It looks good to me. I have done the same type of thing. We are going for 10 days. We are on the QSDP for free and purchased a t-rex gift card and rainforest. Plus we have one adr at Garden grill.

My girls already have around 130.00 saved each. They each got GC for disney ect. I think they should each have around 150.00-200.00 each. My oldest dd has a birthday next month.

I have GC I got for Chrismtas and Birthdays.

Dh doesn't spend much. I buy him a t-shirt and a coffee mug and he is happy.

I'm also going to get the girls each a g-c to build a dino also.
