So last year DH (at the time DF) DD8, DS7(almost) and I had our first trip as a family. We rented DVC points from someone on here (great experience!), did the dining plan and bought tickets from Undercover Tourist. Great!
A couple weeks ago hubby made a deal, we go to Disney again sooner rather than later and he gets to start socking away funds to rebuild his Camaro....UH YES please! He says these are the dates 6/20-6/26, and this is where I want to stay and why. Uh wow this from he who was not overly enthusiastic about our trip last year (it interrupted his world cup watching) he tells me the price he is looking at it being and I nearly cracked up laughing.
I told him I could cut that down by several hundred dollars at least. He does not believe me.
He wants to
Stay: POR- Royal Guest Room Garden View
Do: 3 Day PHWP&M Tickets with a (2 Adults 2 kids)
Dining Plan: The 1 table 1 counter service plan
Came out to something like
4100.
I called found out I had a pin! (YAY! A FIRST!)
I got quotes for all the mods and there is about 400 dollars difference between POR and Coronado I'd choose cheaper but hes the one going to be spending the most time at the resort so not enough to worry about.
I wanted to do the Y.E.S program last year but we only had 3.5 days and I just could not make it happen. This year, with more time its worth the significant (About $500) difference in price since he wants just a basic 3 day ticket and the kids and I want 4 day PHWP&M tickets and with YES you can mix up what you buy!
So basically I can get us there for between 3300 and 3500 tickets dining and resort.
But
No! He can't just let me work my magic!!!!! He has to call and spend time on the phone with them during tax season, get all frustrated cause he does not know the terminology, or the right questions to ask, leading to incorrect answers because he asks the wrong thing!!!!! It's tax season he needs to just focus on getting people their refunds and let me handle the trip planning....GRRRRRR!!!
I have an accountant for sale cheap...... any takers??

Its just the frustration of him saying "I spent XX number of hours on the phone with them today, got hung up on, ect, I don't have time for this!" I know you don't honey, you're working 7 days a week and super behind. You go process refunds so people can pay for their Disney trips, and I'll plan our trips, and everyone will be happy!
