Consider it 50% saved

I held it in as long as I could; sat on it, really. Tried literally to keep my tongue tied and mouth shut. But I just couldn't help myself. As we hit the home stretch in the drive and the airport signs began to loom, I cocked my head, embiggened my eyes (as much as possible, which isn't all that much), and asked him, in my sweetest, silkiest voice:

Can we pleeeease not park in the hourly lot? We don't have to park in long-term, but how about the daily lot? Express? That's reasonable, hmmmmmmmm??????

And it worked.

Mwahahahahahahahaha. Next time, extra $2 saved, here we come!

Don't push it, sweetheart. Just remember when you last "saved" us $70 with a little walk, and just how enjoyable that was.

Craig saved us some money on our recent trip... but it involved getting tickets to an airport about 3 hours away from our final destination.

And then our flight was delayed by 6 hours! Sigh.

Yes, saving $ is really only satisfying if it works out conveniently in the long run. I have a feeling that I'll be "paying" for the saving adventure that "anonymous" refers to for years to come...
