[quote=Anonymous]We just returned from our “big” summer vacation, where we let loose and spoil ourselves. We budget for this trip and work it into our finances so the cost of the trip isn’t noticeable. We plan on taking a shorter, long-weekend road trip later this summer just to get away again before school. While lodging and activities aren’t a problem, it gets crazy when DH wants to spend a fortune on food and drinks just because we are on “vacation”. Where I am like, let’s pack ablations and snacks to have on the balcony or poolside, DH is more let’s just splurge on $15 cocktails from the pool bar and order an equally overpriced app from the restaurant. Or, the hotel has a made to order breakfast included, but he wants to try the fancy breakfast place where we will drop $100 on pancakes. At the end of the day it probably doesn’t matter, but it feels needlessly expensive, especially on a road trip where we could pack anything we need, or where a decent breakfast is available. What’s the happy medium? How would you discuss this with him?[/quote]
