How much do you budget?

Well, even if Dave doesn't get the info he was after (lump total, no details), it made for a good social experiment I guess.

Thanks for all the input guys.

I'm just collecting data for a business plan. Also wanted to know what it would cost if I stayed in Negril as opposed to at the yard.

Thanks again

We normally stay all inclusive so all in with air/hotel and spending money for 10 days I budget for $6-6500

Generally I do not end up spending this much.

This year we are staying 3 nights non-all inclusive so we are saving money there. $1000 of that budget it for spending money and never in all of my trips have I spent all of it. We generally come home with $3-500 left over.

3 adults and 1 child staying at Negril Palms. We are budgeting for $200/day in cash to be spent on meals and entertainment in Negril. I suspect that might be high, but rather have too much than not enough.

Airfare was $2200, Car will be about $200, including gas. Hotel is $1100 (10 nights). So that's a little under $6k

We spend about $100 a day, usually less since I bring many quick meals with me and head done to Value Master for perishables and beer....Our hotel for the 10 days is $900 and 2 plan tickets were $440 each....actually I think we get off pretty cheap for Jamaica.....

That's one of the cool things about Negril, you can get rooms for <$100 a night or >$1000 night. Cook your own and eat cheap box meals, or go out for lobster.
