Do you ever save up money for trips you want to take in the future?

We have a separate savings account that we try to put money in so we can go on a cruise when the kids get older. The only problem is we don't get to put money in it very often.

No, travel and vacations are not important to us.

We are right now for Vegas on the 22nd-24th. We're shooting for 450$ plus DH's mom is giving him 100$ for his bday. We already paid for the room We opened a savings account so we cant spend it on something we dont need.

Yes, we save for vacations. There isn't a lot we can spare for that, but we do save for it.

t's beautiful and very reasonably priced. It's a hidden paradise so it's not too busy and the people are really friendly. There is scuba diving (beautiful coral reefs), fishing, boating, lots of nature...beautiful!
