Apartment Hunt Costs

June 8th, 2011 at 08:38 pm

DH returned home from a three night trip to check out housing options for his five month school. There are two options he is willing to stay in. We will be discussing those and making a decision over the next couple days.

This quick trip cost us: $710.22. This included airfare, car rental, fuel, food and hotel (which was actually free with Marriott Reward points). Of course, I would have rather spent the money on something else. But not bad considering!

    Not bad at all! On our recent NYC trip we were rather shocked to see how fast the money went. I'd already prepaid hotel, airfare and car as well as most of the meals (via the reunion), so I set aside $400 and thought that would be plenty. Well, after an extra rental-car fee, tolls, gas, a few cocktails, a couple meals before and after the reunion, luggage charges, coffee, and a walking tour--suddenly we'd spent over $500! I mean, we weren't exactly trying to conserve money, but we were all truly taken aback by how fast the money went when we weren't really paying attention.
