This is a great way to have a paid in full trip with no charging on the credit cards. You can do one for airfare, transportation and then an indiviual one for each day. I do this every trip and it's a great savings tool and a cool way to count down to the trip. You will find that you have more money to spend and a clear head with no debt afterward.
BRAVO! This is a TERRIFIC way to go. No credit card debt. We really enjoy our vacations knowing that they're paid for.
