What were August 2007 general public discounts?

[pgsahm2]

Wondering about special discounts that were available for August 2007. What was available for August 2007 as far as special room rates, etc? I know free dining is a huge discount, but I'm more interested in the other specials that were available last year. Just trying to speculate on what might be available for August this year. Thanks!

I would like to know the answer to this also!

Hmmm... nobody? I have searched but cannot seem to find the information. Anyone?

Did you check mousesavers? I think they keep track of past discounts.

I can tell you that there was definitely a 30% off room only public code offered in August because I used it, but I'm not positive on the dates. I *think* we were there around the 2nd and 3rd week of August?

********************
I can't find a whole lot of info on the package ZJZ or ZJY (one post said that the general public room discount for the package was the same as the AP discount i.e. Value @ $64, another that there was a 3 night minimum and with the ZJY code you are getting a discount on the room and a discount on the MYW base tickets), but here's what the ad showed:

THIS HAS EXPIRED!

August to September Magic Your Way Package

Summer Package Promotion
A discounted Walt Disney World resort package has been released for check-in dates 7/29/07-9/29/07. It must include at least a minimum stay of 3 nights and at least a 1-Day Magic Your Way ticket. There is very limited availability.

This discount may be applied to a regular Magic Your Way Package or a Magic Your Way Package Plus Dining.

Some actual examples (provided by Small World Vacations) of the discounts you might get with this package:

Magic Your Way Package Plus Dining
Magic Your Way Package Plus Dining
7-Day Magic Your Way Tickets with Park Hopper Option 6-Day Magic Your Way Tickets with Park Hopper and Water Parks Fun & More Options
2 Adults, 3 Children (ages 8, 6 & 3) 2 Adults

All-Star Movies, Preferred View room, Value season
Original Price: $1903.06 New Price: $1800.16 Savings: $102.90

If you have already booked a "Free Dining" package for this time period, you already have the best deal, so no need to rebook. Free Dining packages are no longer available.

Book by 7/28/07.
And this:
Comparisons of the FREE Dining package to the Package offer now shows that the FREE Dining is the better deal.
However, if you are a party of 2 at a Deluxe Resort - with FREE dining -check with your Vacation Planner or Disney. There is a small amount of savings depending on the Resort. (Code ZJZ)
But if you missed that offer you can save still. Ask for Code ZJY.
Availability is whatever was left over from the free dining special, so there is not a whole lot of the popular choices available.

HTH! :teacher:
