"My boyfriend and I had a blast, acting like kids and experiencing something truly magical."
How I did it: When I decided that I wanted to go to Disneyland, I did some research on the best deals possible. Finally, I decided that Disneyland.com had the best packages and so I started to save. In order to save for a nice vacation, you have to cut your spending down by a lot. Believe me, it's worth it! I saved $815.00 and paid for the tickets and the hotel in advance at Disneyland.com. I got my reservations two months in advance. You want to give yourself at least this much time inbetween your purchase and your trip so you can save spending money. I saved my money for two months in order to go to disneyland. At the end of two months, and after bills and other expenses, I had saved 1500. The 1500 was for food and fun. I wanted to be able to buy whatever and eat whatever on wanted on my vacation. Saving this much money allowed me to pay not only for myself, but for my boyfriend as well.
Lessons & tips: Have fun. Try to allow yourself not to penny pinch. I advise that you save as much money as your wanting to spend. It's no fun to go on any vacation if you can't do what you want while you're there. If you can afford it, go for less days, stay at a cheaper hotel...or find something else fun to do that is much cheaper.
Resources: Disneyland.com...the only site I would recommend in order to get both tickets and a hotel for your stay. They have the best packages and they add fun bonesses to them which make you feel like your already on your vacation!
