Personally, I just use what I can of my Tax Returns to help pay off off at least half of the con...the rest I just start saving after Christmas....It all helps to just plan what your expenditures are going to be and stick to a set schedule of saving. I put aside at most 150 and at least 100 for con. Also decide what you are going to be spending the money on at con for trinkets and stuff(like if you decided to just get autographs or just nicknacks from the dealers room.) My food budget is like 150 for the weekend and I try not to use all of that(consuite is a lifesaver.) As for rooming, if you don't mind being with a few people, there are always some souls looking for help in paying the room bill...just depends on how desperate and how willing you'd be sleeping in the tub(Ive done it, don't judge me.) hope this helps
