We Used to Vacation is an EP by Cold War Kids. It was released on V2 in 2006.

The title track (which is also the opening track of Robbers & Cowards) is told from the perspective of an alcoholic family man, telling of his struggle against his alcoholism in order to be responsible to his family.

The lyric "I give a check to tax deductible charity organizations" is from the Bob Dylan track Ballad of a Thin Man, from his Highway 61 Revisited album.
