But a trip upstate is also worth a punt if you have a month. I love China town. And try the russian baths in the east village. there is so much to do and so many worlds there isnt there. Its a bit stressy though. Lots of angry shouty people! We stumbled into 3 arguments in one day! they like to honk their horns and shout! I have an egg internet account and barclays ones. But the names of mine are somewhat random and I dont really have specific plans for the savings. one of them is where I stash a monthly amount for my quarterly and yearly bills. Another is a regular saver with a high (ish) interest rate. and then I have a joint savings account which is where I save our money. And one for me, where I squirrel away cash here and there for general back up. I would like to be more, specific and have savings plans but am not there yet. I love NYC too.

DH and I went to NY once for five days but after three days the pace of life there started to make us a little crazy. Wow--talk about sensory overload. I'm glad we went, but . . .well, if go back to New York, it will be to go upstate. That said, I like your take on saving for short term expenses as well. It's a fun idea--far better than just whipping out the credit card. We've never decided to put anything into a separate account and save specifically for something--but I like it. It creates discipline. And I'll have to check out ING since we're getting zilch on our savings right now . . .well at least on our swatch of neglected savings. .-= Trish´s last blog ..Keeping a simple schedule: when and how to cut back. =-.
