Disney Fund Update

We leave for our trip in a little less then two months.  So far our fund has paid for our flights ($600), car rental ($57), Disney trading pins ($11), and lanyards/autograph books/pens ($8).  I've budgeting about $200 for hotel and $850 for tickets.  I'm thinking we'll also want about $400 for food (we're going to splurge!) and anything else we might want while in the parks.  That said, we need about $850 more.

I've calculated that I need to sell FORTY more $20 items in the next seven weeks.  That's a lot.  But I love lofty goals and am determined to meet this one.  I truly want to pay for every aspect of this trip from trash (or items in my home that we don't use-though we don't have many of those).

Here goes nothing! Lucky number FORTY
