I save weekly. We try to go 2- 3 times a year, but are within driving distance ( so save on flights.) We also don't live anywhere near our families, and my parents are divorced. Each year we fly to see DH's family, fly to see one of my parents, and every other year we see my other parent( lives in UK.) On the year we go to the UK we can only afford to do Disney twice. My husband's job travels every month, normally we go with him; so I stay at home and haven't worked since we married. Vacationing is important to me, so that's what I like to spend money on. We rarely eat out, I pretty much only buy clothes on sale for the kids, and only for myself if I absolutely have to. I don't go to have hair/ nails done or coffee out etc. I do all of our at home chores, and have always been the one up with the kids at night( we have had 2 children with sleep disorders, one with CVS.) My husband goes on a hunting trip for 10 days with his dad and brothers every year.....so I * need*my Disney trips....helps my sanity
