March 30-April 5 High school Ventura, CA

I had the same problem. I just booked the days of the stay with the promo that coincided, added the total amount of park ticket days I need, and paid. I will worry about the 2 nights that aren't covered by FD with either a room-only discount, a stay at POP, or off site. If you need the park...

Thank you, Mary! Your website is invaluable! I got up this morning at 6am and immediately checked mousesavers.com for the Free Dining promo. Unfortunately, our dates were blacked out. I woke-up my husband to tell him the bad news... without some sort of great discount we'd have to stay...

I know it's a CRAZY question, but being on the West Coast we have a bit of a disadvantage if the discounts are released at 8am... I just want to know for what time I should set my husband's alarm! :rotfl2: Anyone remember around what time the discounts started rolling in from Disney Visa...

I was running some numbers last night while watching "24" season 2 last night (so my math could have been a little off! :happytv:)... BUT... A package at POFQ for 8 nights with 7 day MYW tickets is $2302.41 Getting the room and tickets separately through WDW is $2362.83 I thought packages...

I ran the numbers for our family and Free Dining will save us 62% on a moderate. That's with us eating normally(water and one dessert to share), and with only 3 TS ADRs. Having said that... I've heard some horror stories about FD and would rather there was a great room-only discount or...

That's my birthday! Hopefully, a good discount will be my present this year; and an unbirthday present for all of you! pixiedust: Last year on my birthday, another buyer's offer was accepted over ours for our first dream home. It was a sad day. Thankfully we found a house a month later...

That's a GOOD point! One that I knew about but didn't bother to take into consideration when "running the numbers". Okay, where's my calculator?

Yep, yep, and yep! :thumbsup2 I'm hoping I'll have a very nice birthday surprise (8/13). I've never been involved with discount waiting before; I'm getting caught up in the madness! :rotfl: We've only been to WDW once 5 years ago. As first timers, the sky was the limit! I think we got...

Cross-posted at October Code Watch: We just canceled our room-only reservation at POP. The cast member was very apologetic, and asked why we were canceling. DH told her that a value just wouldn't work for us anymore, but that moderate was too expensive without a discount. She stammered "oh...

Encouraging is the PERFECT word! pixiedust:

:thumbsup2 THIS! So this! I try to avoid the word "unfair" because I understand life is often unfair. But it is just not honorable business practice. And for a company that gives the public image of sweetness and light and hope and dreams; this discount game it ain't! If you don't go...

We just canceled our room-only reservation at POP. The cast member was very apologetic, and asked why we were canceling. DH told her that a value just wouldn't work for us anymore, but that moderate was too expensive without a discount. She stammered "oh. uh, um, ummm, ooohh, mmm" for a few...

Hilton Bonnet Creek looked great, but there's no availability for our dates. :confused3

Good find!!! Also, over at mousesavers.com, they have all the historical discount information for the last few years. Which can be helpful and nerve-wracking!

I think that's exactly right... they are waiting 'til the 11th hour to fill rooms with no discount. I think the discount will come later than sooner... if at all. :sad2: If we don't see something in the next few days, I think it will be mid-August before I will personally get my hopes up for a...

Thank you very much! Your kindness and information is very helpful. You hit the nail on the head in terms of exactly why POFQ, or something similar, is (going to HAVE to be) more our speed this time around. What's amazing is we can rent DVC points for almost $400 less than POFQ rack rate...

Absolutely! And that was the original plan when we bought the airfare. Unfortunately, some unexpected health issues had the trip almost canceled and now a moderate would be better suited, or off-site. We are considering the Buena Vista Suites. But I'd love to stay on-site of course.

Thank you for explaining your mindset. I'm still not sure what we should do. We are like you... no discount, no staying on site. Unfortunately, our trip was initially based on rack rate at POP with plenty of $ to spare, but due to some unexpected health issues a moderate would be better...

Thank you! Waiting for a discount isn't fun. I am totally willing and able to spend $125 on a moderate. At a fair market price this would be entirely possible. I'm the LAST person to complain about the price of things at Disney parks... we go to Disneyland at least once a month and buy every...
