    I do whatever I can to save for our trips, but I know what I'm not gonna do anymore...
    I aint gonna work on Maggie's farm no more
    Well, I try my best
    To be just like I am
    But everybody wants you
    To be just like them
    They say sing while you slave and I just get bored
    I ain't gonna work on Maggie's farm no more.

    Save all change and deposit in vacation account
    Luckily we both hate to shop so we don't spend a lot of money on "stuff"
    We pay credit cards in full when due but use the ones that give us cash back. This cash goes in the fund.
    Dividend checks, tax refunds, etc go in the account
    Recently lessened our cable service to save $$$$
    Changed Car & Property Insurance Company to save $$$$
    Thinking about getting rid of the land line phone and just having cell phones. Not sure about this one. What do you all think about that?
    about the land line phone cut your service for in town only it will be just for emergency ours is $7 a month... can't always guarantee a cell phone.

    We use our Chase Shapphire rewards cards as a way to save $$ for these trips. Essentially we use them for our everyday purchases (food, gas, groceries, everything) and pay it off every week. The bonus points we earn can be converted to cash and is essentially "free money". At the end of the year, we will have between $1500-$2000 available which we use to help pay for our vacations.
