To sell my nans ring(passed on to me) to fund a much needed holiday?

[happyandsingle]

Basically this.Have an old diamond ring passed down from my mum it was originally my nans.
Have worn it for years but basically it only fits on one finger(that I think is meant to be the engagement finger or so I've been told) and I am most definitely single!.
It's a nice ring but my dilemma is I'm desperate for a holiday abroad next year for me and my dd.
It's been a shit couple of years and I've had one holiday in ten years paid for by my mum.
I could save but basically on my budget it would be very tight and would mean sacrificing a lot.
My idea was to pawn the ring to get the money for the holiday. I would probably feel guilty but on the other hand I'm sure if my nan was alive she would want me to make the most of it.
My AIBU is do you feel it's a bad thing to do as it was passed down to me? And will I feel guilty after?

A cousin of mine got a huge shock years ago about the value of jewelry.
My nan had a gorgeous ring that had been passed down to her. After she died the ring came to me along with some other things.
At the time I wore it constantly and was with a cousin who insisted we go into a jewellery shop to see how much it was worth. Was worth less than what she thought it would be because it was old. She never found out the cost of the newer piece I had also been left, that was worth a lot more.

I don't know whether these websites might help with a bit of advice and information as well (and if you've started another thread, I do apologise).

Or, as someone else suggested, the Sun scheme - club950.co.uk - one of our local convenience stores even gives the Sun away for free quite regularly as part of one of the promotions they do, or have a look on moneysavingexpert.com forums for helpful advice on how best to collect the vouchers and codes. Do read the small print though.

And I don't know if getting a tent and staying on a campsite is an option, but that's definitely something we've looked at as it can be very cost-effective.
