Me too!!! For the first ten years on our own, my husband and I used our tax return for a piece of furniture or a new appliance, every year. Last year was the first year we had everything we needed, and decided it was time to use the money for our first big family vacation. We loved WDW so much, we're going back this year too. I just e-filed on Thursday and hopefully sometime next week the money will be in our account and I can book my trip, make my dinner reservations, buy plane tickets, etc. I've been planning this trip since I got home from the last one and now I'm just ready to get the ball rollin'!!!

Wow! If you're getting enough money in your tax return to afford a WDW trip, then you seriously need to examine your tax withholding. Excessive tax that is withheld costs you a lot of money.

That's based on the assumption that you would instead invest the excess money each month. In therory, it's correct, but most people would just spend the excess money. Getting a big refund is like the bank holding your money and not paying you interest.

We usually use ours for the trip which we normally take in May. But this year we are going in Feb. so it was all paid off before taxes were done. But we are using some of it for spending money this year.


18 days!!

exactly. It so easy to use the extra money each month instead of saving for that trip in an account

As soon as we come back from out trip, we are planning the next one for the following year. Eventually when we get the tax money we will pay it off the remaining balance and buy seasonal annual passes. Disney rules!!

I'm with you usually we always go around the first part of February. This year we had to wait until October but we were just there in December so it's not that bad.

OH BOY!

Has the tax man brainwashed all of us or what. We think that our money is actually money that they are giving back to us as a gift to take our beloved WDW trips.

WITHHOLDING...the most devious plan ever devised :fork:

It takes a little $$ at a time so we dont quite feel it has bad. I have always said if we were allowed to collect all the money we earn with no tax withholding and then had to write one big fat tax check at the end of the year..there would be a revolution!:lol:

If we had the discipline to keep our money at each pay period and invest it instead of letting Uncle Sam hold our money the whole year and pay no interest when he gives it back we might all be staying at the Grand Floridian!

Anyway...off my soap box...enjoy your WDW trips anyway you can take them!!!

Us too. Just booked our trip with our tax return. It's the only reason we are getting to go. This is the first time in years that we are staying right in Disney. The first time for my husband and kids. Can't wait:lol:
