vacation: wwyd?
So DH and I are discussing going on vacation at the end of October to celebrate our first anniversary. My job is really unstable right now and I am honestly concerned that the company is folding per my previous post. I would certainly like a vacation and as always would prefer to not spend the money. It doesn't work that way though. We figure we can vacation for under 3 grand which is fine if I have a job this year but for the next year but not so cool if I don't. What would you do?
Re: vacation: wwyd?
What abou Myrtle Beach, SC? You can drive there in about nine hours and and you can rent a beach front condo for about $700.00 for a week.
You could also look into Newport, RI, The poconos, Baltimore, Williamsburg VA., Conn., etc..
My sister use to live in Boston and it is an EXTREMELY expensive city. There are better and cheaper options available.
Thanks, great suggestions. Boston is ridiculous! We have a wedding in RI in the spring so we hope to head up to Boston after the weddng and waste money that way anyway. In the meantime, I will check out some of your suggestions ladies. I am totally with you Shari on expecting the worst which is why I posted this in the first place. Total fence straddler right now....I would hate to postpone indefinitely because of work, would hate to go and lose my job afterwards but would also hate to not go because of a fear of losing my job.
It is important to celebrate a good (sometimes difficult) first year. A vacation might not be required to do this though.
I think the suggestions on where to look / where to go are great. However, DH and I went to Jamaica around the same time that you and your DH went there. When our one year came and went we were content with having just vacationed (so soon after the honeymoon). We're saving cash so that by next summer (two years for us) we'll be able to go on vacation without hesitation or use of credit cards. (Well, as much vacation as you can do with an infant.)
