Personal Finance Links (Bon Bini Aruba Edition)
This week, my wife and I are enjoying a vacation in Aruba. We’ve already implemented a few basic ways to save money in Aruba. One tip that I’d add is that you can give Texas de Brazil your e-mail address and get 50% discounts on your entire bill. That tip works at any of the chain’s restaurants – not just Aruba. We might end up going twice – the food and the deal is that good.
In other news, Las Vegas has set the over/under of how much Dunkin Donuts iced coffee my wife will drink on this trip at 10 gallons. Considering the wackiness of being able to get Dunkin Donuts in Aruba and not in California, I’m going with the over. She noticed our timeshare had a pitcher and seriously suggested we just bring it by and ask them to fill it up and charge whatever.
I plan on having some good articles for you this week. However, to paraphrase yet another of my favorite Serenity quotes… what I plan and what takes place ain’t ever exactly been similar.
