I don't know HP, the problem is people are really not "long term" sacrificer's. lol one only has to look at new year's resolutions, only 8% of people who make them, keep them. most bail after 6 months. Dieting and budgeting are other examples.Someone should keep Bob at arm's length at all times, if this is remotely close to reality:

You think a lot of people will cut out $200/week for a year in eating out, subscriptions, and clothing to pay for a WDW vacation? Some, sure, but not a lot. If you’re cutting back in those things, you’re cutting back to save money and likely pay down debt, not save for a vacation. At least that’s what I believe. Then again, people and whatnot…
$200 is nothing. A number of folks family and friends, working from home save more per week not spending on bus fare to NYC, daily lunches, multiple Starbucks fix, dry cleaning, wear and tear on car, gas etc.You think a lot of people will cut out $200/week for a year in eating out, subscriptions, and clothing to pay for a WDW vacation?

Approximately 2 car payments for us...
I mean, I could be a complete waste on society and vlog on youtube... Its not like the people cranking out boring videos of the same stuff aren't raking in the dough!! Heck, half the time they just regurgitate news from here...Who needs those? Surely you could just go without vehicles to support your Disney passion, right?
And there's the crux of the matter, what someone finds expensive is not much to someone else
It's saving $200 a week that people are saying is a lot for most mere mortals.
As sir cliff said. 200 a week was the number.. we live down in Orlando and prices are definitely catching up in the touristy areas especially in the parks. We have the luxury of avoiding those but it is a treat once in a while, until our passes expire.
Generally people who think 200 is a lot of money already aren't dropping 150 routinely at Cheesecake Factory.
Price hikes are what some use to their favor. At Golden Corral in Kissimmee we prepaid our breakfast priced meal then got our trays and started getting our food from the all u can eat spread at 1030 am. We noticed a number of families just sitting at their tables just drinking their beverages and not eating. A few minutes before 11am, a number of families went to the buffet line and started getting the lunch entrees that were being put out. Then I realized that the families did not prepay the lunch price and saved a few dollars and paid the breakfast price and just waited shortly for the lunch items to be brought out .
Totally agree.
