Use a Chase Disney card and use it instead of your debit card for everything. Very easy to get a completely free trip every other year. You can't beat free

@shannond7437 5 жыл бұрын

Jerry Gundrum I’m gonna add there are cards that pay more than the Disney card. I have one and his rewards (can use for Disney gift cards or just cash) pay twice as much. 🤷🏼‍♀️ They do have photo ops that are a bonus for card holders only!

We are using the gift card at Sam's Club. Right now, we can save about $20 more on our trip by buying at Sam's Club rather than BJ's. So, you may want to check them out as well. We also plan to use our rewards CC to purchase and then turn around and pay it off. We are also going in May! When will you be there?

@T.Pink. 6 жыл бұрын

Thanks for the ebates reminder & for the BJ's tip! You explained both thoroughly:) Here are 2 new ways that our family of six (2 adults, 4 college aged kids) saved lots of $$$ on our WDW Disney trip last year. 1) We had an ROTC member traveling with us, so we purchased our park tix through him. Our park tix were only $55 for the basic tix, + we got a free day in one of the water parks. *there are a lot of fine print details regarding the use of military purchased tix- read & follow all of the easy, basic requirements. 2) We needed 2 rooms because the kids aren't "kid size" anymore. lol For the 1st time ever, we took a leap & went thru Daves vacation rentals to get our rooms. We were able to get 2 rooms in a deluxe resort for marginally more than we'd have paid at a value resort thru Disney. I do not recall our exact savings, but it was huge! Our rooms had queen size beds, balconies, & kitchenettes=❤️.

I'm so glad it was helpful! The only thing I need to add is, from what I've been told, BJ's no longer lets non-members shop there so I buy my Disney gift cards from Target with my Red Card and save 5% on them that way. :)

@margaretd3710 5 жыл бұрын

I buy Disney Gift cards with my Target credit card at Target and get 5% off. Then, I use my WDW annual passes for restaurants, where I get at least 10% off - so that's 15% off for our meals - that pretty much covers the tips. I use my Disney credit card to buy most of my monthly purchases (I pay it off in full each month) and I get 1-2% off - you get that back in gift cards when you request them - and I use that money to help pay for our annual passes each year. -- It's not that everything is paid in full, but each bit helps.

@aplacetonest 5 жыл бұрын

Yes, I buy the gift cards through Target now, too since BJ's no longer allows non-members to shop there. It sounds like you're really good at saving money on a Disney vacation! :)

Haven't been to Disney since 1980... I do love Rainforest Cafe....been to the one in Vegas at the MGM Grand..enjoyed that one. Visited one at the Riverwalk in San Antonio, it has a 2nd fl (where they sat us) & I didn't care for it, not much that was active, as far as animals & it was very isolated. Only 2 I've been to.

Another tip I got from the comments on another video is the Disney Movie Rewards. When you buy a Disney movie (including Marvel movies, Pixar, Star Wars, etc.) and enter the code at Disney Movie Rewards, you get reward points that you can redeem for gift cards. We have already gotten $40 worth of gift cards from movies we already own!

Also, have you heard about Disney charging for overnight parking?

Yes, effective this month, there will be an overnight parking fee for each night. Hopefully these tips will help offset the extra cost of having to pay to park. 😢

Another Tip: You CAN use Disney gift cards at Rainforest and TRex! I will buy my gift cards from target with my red card (5% off) and then go to the Disney gift card website and transfer all balances to one card so I don't have 20 cards in my purse... This is so easy to collect over the course of 6 months or a year (the sooner you start the better).

@celiagorleski2716 5 жыл бұрын

And if you charge your BJ's Disney gift cards on your Chase Disney card you earn Disney reward dollars and they will send you a Disney reward card which can then be used just like a Disney gift card. I also suggest that you use your Chase Disney card to purchase t-shirts and possibly even some souvenirs before you go on the trip which will get you more Disney reward dollars and often throughout the year the Disney Store has really great sales and and additional discount if the item shows a marked down price. If the sale is strictly in terms of percentage such as 10% off or 20% off you cannot get an additional amount back with your Disney Chase card but you can still earn reward dollars. Just be sure to pay the card off any time you use it because the interest rates will eat up anything you save.

Dede we went family of 4 -- 2 kids over 10. All inclusive with the meal plan (which is well worth the money) 7 days 6 nights for 4,200 --- the ONLY money we spent in the park was on 2 pins we wanted- which I found later selling on eBay for 3.99 each so you won't need ANY money in the park if you get the meal plan
