For our trip Nov 17 - 28 I saved $169.40 tax not incl on our 2 rooms at ASMo.

We have also saved about $64.00 on our PAPs.

Our car rental so far has been reduced by $50. (I say so far because in Florida you have to constantly watch the car rental rates)

I have saved over $100 on Disney Store and .com purchases.

I was able to join thru Entertainment.com for $31.95.

So Far:

3 4 Day Hopper Passes: $22.26
National EA FullSize for 9 Days: $28.93 (so far)

My wife and I shop at TDS and online quite a bit, so we should recognize more savings. We are staying off-site in May, so it does not help us there. But so far, I have saved $19.24. Plus, I know that we will shop in DD.

We saved $378 on just our room for our May trip to AKL! Not mention that it also gave us a discount on the APs that we bought. We also are going to use it for some discounts at restaurants while we are down there. If you book a package (which we did not feel was worth it -- but if you do) like resort magic, you get free Disney dollars. We originally booked with a Resort magic package instead of APs and we were going to get $50 disney dollars. Of course, now that we switch to APs we lost the disney dollars, but I think that the Disney club membership has paid for itself for us. :D
