I am broke but I need a WDW fix

[Gisele]

Buenas Noches!, Stahshee y amigas!

Que pasa! ¿cómo estás? Stahshee? ¿cómo estamos? yo bien.

¡cuidate!


¡nos vemos!







After that I kind of get stuck! ha!ha! on me! oh well




OMG! and WOW! and I reiterate, Hello Stahshee, hoping that you are doing well.
Maybe we should all try to write in a different language, one that we are learning or in my case still working on, that way, anyone that wants to be tuff about spelling, we can be forgiven for we are but a mere student of a foreign language.

To: Mum4jenn,
I was going to PM this, however I feel I should do it publicly.

You are right, and I apologize. Thank you for calling me on it.

You also made me LOL because I use that expression all the time.

Again, sorry!

O.K. Stahshee! If I do not hear from you soon, I shall be forced to send out a search party for you!
I hope that all is well, and that you have been just too busy, as of late, if not for quite some time, to visit us, and to let us know how things are coming along.
Have you forgotten us already?
Seriously though, post a post, otherwise, I will have to worry about you.

 

[dogodisney]

I've been thinking about you too! Hope all is well.

Well I have been really busy…. whoosh
I can cash out for a Cracker Barrel gift card in Aug, through Mypoints. It will only be for 25.00 I am not a breakfast person so this could work.
I have a huge garbage bag filled with cans to return. I plan on waiting until the end of summer to cash that in. I hope to get 10-20 more for my trip. Basically I need some airport food money.
I am stressing out because I need to come back with some Christmas money. I need at least 500.00 I would like 700...

I have received some more free coupons.

Free Helmans mayonnaise
Free Kraft Mac and cheese
Free Klondike bars.
Free Blue Bunny ice cream

Here is my list of free stuff as of today
Free Helmans mayonnaise
Free Kraft Mac and cheese
Free Klondike bars.
Free Blue Bunny ice cream
Free Purex laundry soap
Free granola bars x2
Free luigi Italian ice
Free French’s potato sticks

Free Hostess diet bread
Free superpretzel x2
Free Yoplait yogurt x3
Shout 1$ off


I have also saved 160.00 towards the cost of the van rental (split in half with my dad) I would like to find 40.00 to put in with that. Also this would work out better , now I will not have to charge the price of the van.

I can't remember if I saw it mentioned here, but were you planning on Planet Hollywood? In past years we have always gotten some kind of food voucher with our packages but never use it so if you are, you can have it! We may end up with 2 because my parents will have a room as well. Just let me know if you are interested. If we do get them, we will be back 9/21 and can drop off.

So glad to hear that you are alive and well. It's crazy how life gets in the way of posting. Hope you find the extra $40 that you're looking for. We are going in June 2009 and I told DH today that I'm going to get a bank/jar that is sealed shut so that we can't dip into the "vacation fund". He just laughed and said "whatever". I also told you before that I'm taking your idea of collecting cans and using that money too. (but, can't do it until after the heat of the summer...d@#$ bees) Anyway, keep us posted on your mission. It seems we all enjoy hearing about your savings.

 

[Gisele]

Holy cow! Stahshee! what a way to go! that is really great about your update.
How do you go about receiving so many great coupons? Man, let me tell you, I am missing out, and I believe big time as well, by not be savvy about coupons, like you are.
Are you able to do some child care in your home? or baby sitting, where the parent brings their child to your home? as a way to earn money for your trip.
Keep up the great work!

A big budget bust for me. I had to pay for our condo. I took out of my Disney savings 314.14 . (I put that money away for Christmas to) My husband made me feel guilty about the amount of bills we had to pay . So now I have been suckered into paying for this house.
. You see we just took a 10,000 loan to put siding on the house we live in.

anyway the amount I have saved for my trip is 1,319. The three hundred is for the car. I really want to have 1600. I don't want to spend that much I just want to take that much and come back with 1,000

ugh I am stressed because I want money.. lol

 

[lmillercrew]

So I can't remember. Was your DH supposed to pay for the condo orginally? That stinks! How many more weeks do you have left to save before you leave on your trip?

 

[Gisele]

Ah...... cheer up Stahs! you can do it! you can at least come close to your budget goals, if not achieve them! do not become too unhappy, whatever your dh was suppose to pay for, hold him to it, you still have time to achieve your goals, and do not let your dh, make you feel guilty about the bills, if life could be free, that would be grand, but we know, that is not how it works, does he want you to work outside of the home? if you would like to, you should, but if you do not have to, then don't, it is a zoo out there!
Anyway, I have confidence in your endeavors to achieve your goals!

[dogodisney]

I pray everything works out for you.

 

[sumlthomp]

I am amazed & impressed with everything you have done to get your family to WDW! I would love to know more details on how you're getting all these free coupons, gift cards & exactly how you go about getting cash for cans. We're planning for November 2009 so I would love to try out some of your tips for saving more money.

I don't think anyone answered your question about whether Rainforest takes reservations. I don't know about the Animal Kingdom location, but DTD definatly does... I just made my reservations for my September trip last weekend. So you may want to make some reservations if you haven't made any yet... I would hate to see them be all booked.

I've really enjoyed you PTR, I love all the ways you've found to save $$..
