Update: Saving for Disney

We are at 37 days out!

So lets check savings! I can tell you right now, it's no where where it needs to be. But pretty close. We changed a few things around as well.

We are staying at the swan thanks to a family member instead of at Disney. (Still Disney property). So that saves $1016, but adds a couple other expenses. We're also taking a couple days to visit family. So here's what the trip looks like now:

Disney Tickets:

~ $1406 for 4 of us. We're not exactly sure how many days we'll be going to the park yet. 7 days was $1533, but I think we'll be going 5 days now.

$400 for food

$100 for the kids to spend.

$200 for me and my husband to spend

$735 for plane tickets (paid)

$225 Resort fees

Total: 3066.

735 is already paid. So 2331.

Currently I have:

$580 in Disney cards
$330 saved up waiting for Targets 10% off deal.

Still need: $1421.

I saved $910 in 43 days without selling anything except 14 socks. I have a ton of the kids toys to sell and some other merchandise before Christmas.

Right now we're at $38.41 a day or $268.84 a week.


I will be including my Black Friday sales as well into my savings which will increase as well. My black friday savings are: $205. That's almost an extra week ;)
