Hidden Expenses


My son is using his cell phone minutes wisely, but he is incurring some extra hidden expenses regarding this upcoming field trip. Every few days, he says that he needs a few more dollars for this or that--and it is all related to the trip. It reminds me of the term--"being nickled and dimed to death." It isn't an outrageous amount, but it still is costing a lot more than we thought it would. Still, it is worth it--we think it will be a very good trip. He leaves this week--I think he is ready. I will worry about him every day that he is gone, but I hope he has fun. I just hope we don't end up paying an arm and a leg by the time the trip is over! :)
