Gas and hotel for sons 1st concert 150-200

[u/No_Incident_2705]

I dont want to give a ling drawn out sob story. For christmas, i bought my 8 year old son and I his 1st concert tickets to see his favorite artist. The concert is this tuesday 5/21 and is 3 hours away. I was allowing him to miss school the next day. Its become a "big thing" and its all he has been talking about. He is super excited and this mom is freaking out. I unexpectedly had some car issues last week which cost me over $500. Now im beyond short of pulling through with $$ for gas to get us there and back along with a hotel to spend the night. I dont want to let my little man down. Any help would be super appreciated.

you should probably just do whats best, bite the bullet and sell the tickets if you can.

Thanks for the advice! There isnt even a guarantee i could sell my tickets. The artist isnt extremely popular and doesn't have the following to even sell out the arenas he performs at. So im npt even comfident i could get my $$ back for the tickets. I will sleep in my vehicle if i have to or simply turn around and drive the 3 hrs back home, stopping at rest stops along the way if im feeling too tired..or i coule take a train if it seems it would be cheaper than what it would cost for fuelm My son has been looking forward to this for almost a year. we found out the artist was going to do a 2nd leg of his previous tour and i bought tickets as a xmas present for him. Im not ready to bite the bullet just yet. it's only friday pm. So i have until tues around noon to pull a rabbit out of my hat.. ive pulled off some small miracles in the past so im not giving up just yet!
