My question is that is it really a good deal for many of these trips with us being broke college students?
Like Cam, I am not going away on vacation. I have heard many of my friends and family say that they are going to Florida for the week or at least the weekend. I live in the Keene area and my spring break is spent working a full 40 hours instead of my regular 25. I think the advertisements are not meant for people like me, but families that have more money, or kids that get their school paid for. Even if people are saving up money for their own vacation, often times they will spend even more money than they really have, because companies advertise such a cheap price, and then charge lots of extras. Many people see a small number advertised, and then forget that they still need to buy a hotel, food and drinks for the week, nevermind what you want to do for entertainment.
Have you ever bought anything and then not had enough money because of tax or another extra added onto the total price that you forgot about?

Hometown Prizm: Gilsum NH
I ran the prizm calculator for my hometown of Gilsum NH, 03448, and I thought the results were exactly what I picture in my town. It is a small town with cheaper housing, lower income families mostly without children. The prizm also showed that many of the people own trucks, go hunting, and woodworking and hunting were hobbies. I only know a handful of people from my town, but this is the most accurate description that I would be able to give. Many of the people I know are retired without kids and are happy living in this country lifestyle.
Would you ever look at the Prizm before moving to a new town to get an accurate idea of what life is like?
