Starting next Friday, we’re taking a week off for a vacation and celebrating our 2 year anniversary. We managed to save some money on our hotel bill and Disney World tickets. While we’re on vacation, there will be posts here on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday.

If anyone wants to submit an article for either Tuesday, Thursday,  Saturday, please contact me. If we do bring the laptop, I’ll check my Twitter account. Next week will incude a post on some things we did to save money on the vacation. If you have any tips, email me by Tuesday night (9pm EST)and I’ll include it in the post.
