My wife and I are celebrating our 10th wedding anniversary this new years eve, and she wants to get away to somewhere warm. She'd like a cruise. I cannot find much of anything that, to me, seems all that affordable.

So the question... Do you all have places you go/rely on for cheap, affordable, no-hassle, no third-world living conditions vacations?

thanks for all the help, and for being a sholder to cry on.

We just bought a last minute air-inclusive four-night deal (over Thanksgiving) at a 4-star hotel in Ixtapa for our family of three for two grand.

We shopped all the discount sites, we went with Expedia.
