How my kids saved me $600
Costs less than an adult, but you have to ask, more than once
A little bit of obnoxious wisdom gleaned from my small children just saved me $600, who knew they could be so useful? We all know that kids have figured out that they can generally get what they want by continuing to ask the same question of mom, dad, babysitter, grandma, big sister, mom again, grandma again until finally someone just gives them what they want. While this might be annoying, I’ve found it a brilliant lesson in persistence.
I’ve been busy making plans to take my 9 year old son to Rwanda. Yes, it’s a long story, it’s a post I’m working on, just go with me. Rwanda is not exactly a highly traveled destination. JetBlue doesn’t go there, actually, almost no one does. If you are flying from the US or Europe you get there by way of Belgium (Rwanda used to be a Belgian colony, french is the native tongue actually).
So true Luxury Travel Mom! I need to step up and be a little more persistent, a little more bold and definitely more vocal when getting what I want..no what I NEED while travelling. I look forward to learning all your tricks of the trade!
I’m a little curious as to what you saved $600 on and, knowing how you do your math, what you’ll be spending that savings on instead! Love your humor and wit — always a bright spot in my day. Keep writing, Luxury Travel Mom!
so how did you save $600? and on what?
The airfare for an adult is $2,200 for children it’s $1,600. I was so excited about “making money” I guess I didn’t lay it out fully. Maybe it’s a habit I’ve developed when I just tell Jeff that I saved money, no need for messy details!
That’s amazing how much I saved you!
