Doing Disney on a Budget - Our Favorite Tips

Let's Recap!

1. Skip the Dining Plan - Ah, the Disney Dining Plan. Possibly one of the most debatable topics in Disney forums.

2. Eat Counter Service - Since food is obviously a budget line item that has a lot more give and take, let’s stick with that subject.    

3. Pack Snacks and Water - Did you know that the number one merchandise purchase in Walt Disney World is bottled water? Water runs around $2.50 per bottle (usually). 

4. Skip Park Hopper - When it comes to saving money on Disney Park tickets, there’s not a whole lot that you can do. Purchasing multi-day passes always helps a little, of course.

5. Stay Off Property - OK, this is the biggie. There are some Disney Fanatics who would never even consider staying off of Disney property.   

6. The Thrifty Locker - Finally, if you need to save money, you’ll want to plan ahead.
