How much is your 2025 vacation going to cost you?

DH and I are taking DD, SIL, and TheLittleGuy for his first trip to Disney in May.
>Hotel pre-flight $180
>RT airfare, MHT-MCO, $56 (taxes, flying on SW rapid rewards points)
>RT MCO/Disney on Mears $160 (we'll use Disney buses when onsite)
>2 rooms, AllStarMovies preferred $450 oop ($1750 (BounceBack) but $1300 of this will be covered by Disney VISA points)
>3 day base tickets $1700 ($2255 but I have some money "on hold" with Disney from a covid-cancelled trip to help here).
>Splitsville $155 (I know... for bowling...)

SO $2701 but I have $650 in Disney gift cards bought at 10% off (so only paid $585 for them) to offset this. However, these are the basics. It doesn't include driving two cars round-trip to near the airport (MHT) or one car parking at the airport for 5 nights. It also doesn't include meals. We will do a grocery order to cover breakfasts in the room, as well as room snacks and water. We are planning on one QS and one TS meal per person, per day, but some of our ADRs will be at restaurants that give 10% discount when using my Disney VISA (Boma, Biergarten).

Once the time gets closer I will "run the numbers" and buy Disney gift cards at Target (so 5% off, unless I find a better deal) to pay the outstanding balances on the tickets.
