View Full Version : HOw much do you save from deployment SezzySue 07-26-2006, 01:37 PM Now I know not many are in the Air Force. We deploy for 4 months at a time.

SezzySue 07-26-2006, 01:41 PM not bad Jennygirl 07-26-2006, 01:43 PM Weve never been through a underway when its our money...Im thinking we will save a bunch cause i work and pick up the utilities and my half of the car payment and he pays the rest and the food...And we dont have children, so we pretty much grocery shop once a month Breezy 07-26-2006, 02:00 PM Well when we rented in San Diego we saved it all both deployments. In Va on our last 2 deployments and we had to replace all septic lines and put 2 new roofs on the house, that took what he got paid and then some and he got paid more than most because he got per diem for 2 months plus all of the HD pay and Sep etc... So for us it has depended on where we were Callie 07-26-2006, 02:04 PM We save mega amounts of money, but I usually work when he isn't here. I think last deployment Dh was deployed for about 8 months we saved over 8,000. momrisner 07-26-2006, 02:06 PM Every other deployment and the year in Korea, we saved ALOT of money, but he's leaving again here soon, and I've not had any luck finding a job so I have no idea how we're going to do this time. I'm sure I'll save some, but I don't think it will be the couple of thousand I've managed to save in the past. Krisha 07-26-2006, 02:08 PM I always save a ton of money when dh is deployed. CoffeeGirl 07-26-2006, 08:25 PM I always save a ton of money when dh is deployed. me too NavyChiefs_Wife 07-26-2006, 08:27 PM I'm not able to save anything but Matthew saves all his money that he receives on his Navy Cash card. The only money he spends on deployment is what it costs to call me and maybe buy some dinner while he's waiting on a phone. |
