Step 3: Set Your Budget
O.K. So you’ve gone through steps 1 and 2 and you know what Disney Parks and Special Events your going to attend and now you know exactly what dates your going to take your Disney Vacation!
Now, it’s time to set your budget to prevent you and everyone else from breaking the bank once you get to the Parks with all those temptations.
Because it’s one thing to have a nice and neat budget planned and know exactly where all your money is going; but it’s an entirely different animal to tame once your actually on your Disney vacation and then the budget usually gets buried under all those emotions and self talk…you know “Go on you deserve it, live a little, this only comes once and a lifetime, Ahh, what the Heck’ it’s worth it we can figure it all out when we get home, Honey give me the credit card.”
You know that kind of stuff.
Disney doesn’t mind helping you flare those emotions up attached to your wallet either. So the budget is there as a safety net to make sure your money doesn’t drop further down in the account then you want it to. And we’ll ensure this by planning for those emotional moments and unexpected encounters with temptation because they will come and you’ll be ready for them.
Before we get started, let’s review what the main function of going to Disney on a Budget is…
“Disney on a Budget’s purpose is simply to make your Disney Vacation more enjoyable by ensuring that you get the best deals, you don’t over-spend, and maintain control while everyone still gets to see, hear, do, and enjoy everything they could ever possibly want at Disney.”
Your budget will serve as a guard to give you peace of mind and heart while on your Disney Vacation so that you can be worry free too. After all it’s kind of hard to enjoy yourself when you have to pull out the backup credit card because you didn’t plan for certain things to happen.
Let’s get started…
I believe in keeping things simple since budgeting is not really a favorite pastime in most peoples lives especially mine. So for the sake of making sure that we actually do this step and apply it, we need to keep this really easy and simple.
