YES! I compare EVERYTHING in airplane tickets. My husband jokes about this. But really, it works wonders.
Yes, but what if I tend to spend too much of my budget on airline tickets? What do I compare it too? Then once I’m away from home, I spend far too much on food (“I’m in Seattle! I have to eat ALL of the seafood!”).
Oh my, I definitely need to do this.
