Last week I received an email containing my Costco Citibank cash back rewards check from 2017. It’s a significant amount, totaling several hundred dollars. It would be easy to just blow it on something meaningless, but instead we’re putting it in the bank to be used during our family vacation to Florida at the end of March. We’re already budgeting for spending money for the trip, but adding this will give us some extra funds to make sure we have a great time.
Fist pump for cash back rewards, AND my favorite posts of the week!

I just got back from FL 10 days ago, and was so happy to drop the credit card payment in the mail today, paying for the trip in full. Christmas is paid, and we are saving toward next year. The vacation is paid, and we are saving toward the next one – and it’s only February!
Thank you and the whole EOD team!
