I think we are all familiar with
Benjamin Franklin, a supreme Founding Father to the United States. One of the things Ben Franklin would do when faced with a decision is draw up a Pro/Con list.
Let's do this for your situation,
FreeMannWorld
Problem: Should I spend 49 pounds per night to stay with the World Heel Meet 2008 group?
Lets really look at this. Above you said you would be comfortable spending up to 40 pounds a night for a room. The difference between 49 and 40 is 9, so really we are talking about a 9 pound per night distinction here.
PROS.................................CONS
1. being close to the group makes it easier to make new
friends, which is really what
this meet is all about
1. Costs 9 pounds more per night
2. makes transportation in
foreign city easier (group cabs, tube)
3. If I stay alone, I'll be all by
myself in a hotel room and
possibly feel lonely/left out
4. Being close to the group
makes my trip to London about
the WEEKEND, not just the day
of the meet.
5. The 49 pounds includes TAXES
and FEES. Most likely I will pay
the 9 pound difference
anyway at another hotel, why
not this one?
6. This includes BREAKFAST. Yum
If I pay for breakfast elsewhere,
it will cost from 5-10 pounds, if not
more.
7. I am getting a great deal.
The average price per night
for this hotel is $312/night U.S.
I'm sure you can come up with more reasons to fill in yourself. And as I am sure you will see, the PROS of paying a mere 9 pounds more per night to stay with us will far outnumber the CONS.
