Saving for a Disney Vacation

Let’s face it.  Saving for vacation, and vacation, can be a challenge.  At the beginning of this year mint.com launched their 52 Week Money Challenge.  It offered a great tip on saving money each week throughout the course of the year, by staring small.

Just $1

And then doubling that each week for 52 weeks.

It’s a great plan.  Simple and easy to remember.

While not necessarily designed to create a vacation savings account per say, I saw it as an opportunity to add a little bit to my Disney Bank each week.  Which is always a plus.  There was a graphic that accompanied the initial plan from Mint, but it needed a sprinkling of Pixie Dust, so I created my own featuring Cinderella’s Castle.  This week I got the idea that I should post it here, as well as debut a new design for those who might be interested in a little Disney Cruise Line motivation.  Over the next few weeks I will be updating this post with additional designs, and hope to have one design for each of the continental Disney Parks, as well as at least one more option for our Disney Cruise Line fans.

And remember, just because we are in the middle of the year now doesn’t mean its too late to start!

    Hi There!

    My name is Lin and I’m the founder and heart behind DisneyMamas.com. I’m so glad you stopped by!

    My precious family

    A Disney fan from birth,  I’ve made more than two dozen pilgrimages to my second home, Walt Disney World, with a handful of visits to Disneyland and Disney Cruise Line thrown in for good measure. Currently, I reside 1,162 miles from the World near Dallas, TX.

    My usually willing, lifelong travel partner & husband is Chris, who’s Disney fandom is growing with every trip. Together we are raising two Disney-nuts-in-training: Connor and Logan. Connor’s passion of the moment is playing Sorcerer’s of the Magic Kingdom. Logan just wants to share your snack and ride it’s a small world.

    Besides moming and blogging, I’m is also a high school theatre teacher by day and Disney and Universal travel agent by night for Once Upon a Time Vacations.
