[@denysejones4716]

My favorite type of video. I ❤ vacations, trips, adventures, mini road trips, staycation, baecation, traveling. Basically any type of get away.

[@BudgetStuffSaveRepeat]

I totally agree… I definitely have to have vacations on the books… my husband and I have very demanding jobs and it is part of self-care to just detach for a week or two!!! I greatly appreciate you being here Denyse💕💕💕

[@Sitasbudgetingjourney]

Hi Melissa, vacation planning is important even if you don’t know where or when you’re going. I truly learn so much from you watching you😊 Stay blessed❤

[@BudgetStuffSaveRepeat]

Thank you Maria!! Yes, I I definitely put my vacation in self-care category… my husband and I have very demanding job so it is very necessary for us to disconnect!! Greatly appreciate you being here🥰🥰🥰

[@faithbydesignXO]

Morning Melissa! Great vacation savings! Yes, you’re so right- honest budgeting is key! 💜🌻🌻

[@BudgetStuffSaveRepeat]

Good morning Imani!! Honest budgeting is definitely the way!! I hope have a wonderful day!!

[@jessibudgets]

Back for another video Melissa 💜 thats awesome that you guys had left over money and used it for family fun. Definitely recommend everyone to save for vacation regardless of how long it will take you to safe, it will always be worth it!

[@BudgetStuffSaveRepeat]

Thank you Jessi!! I agree…honest budgeting requires us to include saving for vacation (even if we have debt), if we know we are going to take one!! Honestly, we need to disconnect once or twice a year!!! Thanks for being here!!!

[@kaystayonbudget4651]

Melissa❤ here catching up dear and I can’t say it enough how motivating it is to keep savings up no matter the knowing where we are going, it’s when we are ready to go, we have the funds for it 😊 I love the progress your envelopes are showing my dear ❤❤❤

[@BudgetStuffSaveRepeat]

Thank you Kay!! That is my thought process exactly… if I know something is coming up even without all the details it will never hurt to save something for it!! I am fully engaged and intentional with my finances and life!! I think God for that type of awareness!! I greatly appreciate you being here, friend🥰🥰🥰

[@Lifeoverdebt]

Hey, hey Melissa! Vacation expenses can get very costly if you don’t budget for those things. I haven’t gotten to your level of budgeting for each item just yet. One day I will, though. We tend to take more long weekend trips at the moment. That time away is so important for your mental health! Great video friend! ❤

[@BudgetStuffSaveRepeat]

I like that you’re honestly assessing your situation…it has taken me many years of budgeting to get here!! I’ve been budgeting for 20 years! I agree that time away is SO important!!! I greatly appreciate you being here 🥰🥰🥰

Hello I enjoy watching Saving Challenges.

[@BudgetStuffSaveRepeat]

Thank you so much!! I greatly appreciate you being here🥰🥰🥰

[@thebudgetevolution]

Hi Melissa 👋 always saving for vacation 😅😊🩵

[@BudgetStuffSaveRepeat]

Thank you!! I appreciate you being here!!

[@DotMyFinances]

I've never considered splitting the cost of vacation like this. I usually just do a total budget since the cost can vary so much for us. I'm excited to hear where you guys end up going!

[@BudgetStuffSaveRepeat]

I use to do the same…but I wasn’t really saving enough to cover the whole trip and some still had to go on credit🤦🏽‍♀️ splitting the cost into categories has helped tremendously!! I greatly appreciate you being here!!

[@blessedbudgetsbyAbigail]

Hi Melissa 👋🏾 BarbieAmica from my future budgeting channel. Here supporting friend 🩷💕🩷💕🩷💕 Great plan for your next vacation plan 👏🏾

[@BudgetStuffSaveRepeat]

Yay!! I love hearing that you are planning to start your budgeting channel!! I’ll be sure check you out!!

[@TheALMOSTOrganizedOwl]

You know I think this is fantastic!!! 🎉🎉 You are right! Just have to make it a priority and save a little at a time. Q: Are you still planning to share your yearly budgeting process?

[@BudgetStuffSaveRepeat]

Thank you Nita!! Yes, I’m still planning to share yearly budgeting process, but I need to push it back one week to the 23rd. I had to travel for work and that threw off my routine. A handful of people are interested, so I will deliver!! I appreciate you sis🥰🥰🥰

[@HeyKayBudgets]

Hey Melissa! Happy Friday! ❤

[@BudgetStuffSaveRepeat]

Happy Friday Kay!! Have a great weekend!!!

[@richardsmith2890]

Hello Melissa. Great video and savings. I love savings for my vacations. I'm just back from my recent vacation and actually came home with €200 , I'm in shock😂😂 normally if i come home with €5 I classify that as successful 😅. Have a great weekend

[@BudgetStuffSaveRepeat]

Hey Richard, I agree coming home with anything is a huge win, but three figures is A-M-A-Z-I-N-G🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽 I know this is going to sound nerdy, but budgeting is so cool🤣🤣🤣 I hope you are having a lovely Sunday!!!
