to think 500 is enough spending money for weekend away

[Scottishdreams1991]

Family of 5 going to a caravan Fri to Monday. Doesn't include food or eating out.

Dh thinks we need more

I don't understand on what planet £500 without needing to use it on food and drink wouldn't be enough for 3 nights?

I understand wants to treat the kids in the holiday park shop but It's haven not harrods.

But what sort of thing would you be saying yes to? If you’re not leaving the site, activities are included and you have a separate budget for food, I just can’t imagine what you’d be spending it on? Do they have many shops on Haven caravan sites? What sort of things will the kids be asking for?

What things? Most of the sites have a convenience store and amusement arcade; you aren't gonna spend £500 in 3 days there surely?
