Try and book for free dining. That'll save you money and you won't need to worry about budgeting for food.
I'm not sure when they offer FD in the US but here it is offered pretty much all summer.
While "free" dining is nice - you end up paying full rate for the rooms. If you can manage to eat breakfast in your room, share some meals (they can be quite large) you can save some $$ for sure.
The largest amount of money for our Disney trips has always been the airfare. If you live reasonably close, driving may get you there cheaper - but you'll spend additional vacation days driving.
I guess you need to set a budget first. Then you'll know how many days you can afford.
