at the Disney store!!!! Check out the prices and compare with AAA. Just don't wait till you get to WDW. You save if you buy the tickets in advance. :earsgirl:

You can buy a 5-day Hopper from ticketmania.com for $240. Also try orlandoticketsales.com. If you get the mousesavers newsletter, they have a special deal with Ticketmania (but you have to be a subscriber). I have other sites at home, but I'm at work now. I will try and post later.

Disney doesn't include the sales tax until you "checkout". The five day PH from Disney comes to $231.11 with the 6.5% sales tax. :(

should have know there would be a catch. our local sales tax is the same so probably would cost the same at the Disney store too then.

Hi Jann:

I believe you pay Florida sales tax no matter where you buy them...

If you know anyone who works for GM they sell a 5-day hopper for $214.62 to their employees. Ticketmania sells the 5-day for $230 (it includes tax) and shipping is free. Paramountinternationaltravel.com sells a 5-day Plus (2-pluses) for $238 but the shipping is $15 (might be worth it is you have to buy more than a couple tickets). Also, paramount usually will include free tickets to a character breakfast.

It depends on the number of days you want but we found the cheapest even w/ the $15.00 shipping is paramountinternationaltravel.com..again it depends on exactly what you are looking for. Check ticketmania as well. It is bizarre but it really depends on the days and if you want the Plus+ pass.

I found the cheapest price is at the Disney store. I am going to buy mine very soon, so I will let you know exactly what the total comes to with the tax. You have to pay tax no matter where you get them, but the DS has the cheapest "before tax" price. I've checked everywhere. ;)

I went to that web site, and the prices quoted don't include "state tax and fees." The prices quoted at www.paramountinternationaltravel.com include the sales tax, and there is a $15 shipping charge per order. I haven't ordered from them before, but I have read good things about it.
