[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I costed out a trip for the six of us to go to Orlando for a week. It was ridiculous! Instead we went to Ireland for 10 days, stayed in really nice places and we had the best time for much less money. [/quote]

So a week for me in Orlando costs about $1K for hotel, $400 for car, $200pp for flight, $300 for parking, $50 for petrol. Food and booze is incrementally higher, partially offset by not eating at home, so let's say $1K for food and snacks. You don't have to spend on that if you don't want. Tickets will be $700 or so per person.

For a family of four that is $3K for tickets and $800 for flights. Let's add $500 for incidentals. The total is about $7K for the week. I'm neither splurging nor skimping here. So, you took your family to Ireland for 10 days for "much less money?" How? Show me the math.

RT tickets to Ireland let's say they are $500 on a good deal. So that is $2K to start.

For 4 people you are paying under $150 per night for a hotel? Which hotel is this?[/quote]
