Walt Disney World for Rookies: What to Know Before You Go

2. A Little Something Extra

It goes without saying that for a Disney trip you will need some extra cash: money needed for souvenirs, tee shirts, food, et cetera. I’m speaking from experience when I say whatever amount you are thinking of bringing, double it. There are park goers that pack their own lunches, buy small trinkets, and try to save any way they can, and that’s totally fine. However, there are some things you can only acquire at a Disney park, such as Dole-Whip, pins, and Mickey ears, just to name a few. You don’t have to break the bank on souvenirs or food to have a proper Disney experience, but you may want to take a little bit of the magic home.
