On saving money...

[2boys'mom]

We just got back from Wilderness Lodge on an AP rate. Two things that we spent money on that I would avoid are Rental Car if you are only doing Disney and those water fans at Disney. They are $17 each. Unbelievable. Also avoid Goodings Grocery store. Everything is double the normal price. There is a Walmart somewhere. Good luck!

Thanks for the good advice! I had read somewhere else the Goodings was very expensive!!

Publix grocery stores seem very competitively priced and they have a good selection.

If you're staying on property, I'd suggest taking a taxi (they have vans) and just using disney transport. Mears is expensive.
Using disney transport saves time, money, and hassle.
