2026 MMB info Announced

[VGCgroupie]

I wonder what percentage of the membership purchases MMB? From perusing these boards, I sort of got the feeling like we are the only folks that didn't get it last year and have no plans to get it this year either, but an admittedly non-probabilistic sample of 4 or 5 members I know in the area all say they don't plan on buying it either (one still hadn't even heard of it - don't ask... I know...). Be interesting to know...

Id say a majority of owners dont even know it exists. Many are not on discussion boards, many dont read DVC emails or read the mail sent either, Id bet.

I bought last year because it was a good deal for Memory Maker alone and I always buy it.
But that was the only perk I used from it.
This year, I would love to use it and some points if the clouds would all align just right.

Also have a friend who uses it for the Sorcerers pass.

Any advantage to buying the ticket deal early as opposed to closer to our dates in March? Seems like its been forever since we actually used our DVC and I just want to make sure.

No I can't see any advantage of buying early vs closer to your trip.

There is a question you have to ask yourself though.

Will you want to go to a Theme Park on Saturday or Sunday? (You can use the waterpark tickets on these days but not the Theme Park tickets)

If the answer to the question is answered with a Yes you might want to consider the boards sponsor, Unlocked Magic or Undercover tourist or other sites that allow you to get 5 day tickets that work on the weekend if you don't care about the waterpark.

Earlier @camm2015 quoted $705.09 for 5 day with waterpark and $749.82 for 5 day hopper with waterpark for early February.

For example Unlocked Magic lists the tickets without the waterpark but the ability to go on Saturday and Sunday for 5 days at $721.18 (after tax) and if you choose the hopper $809.84 (after tax).

So the question then boils down to is going to the Theme parks on Saturday and or Sunday with no waterpark access worth the $16.09/$60.02 premium per ticket for you?

If you are ok with just going on the weekdays remember you can buy the MMB tickets with Gift cards so stop at Target/Sam's/BJ's or somewhere else and pick up some for a discount to use before purchasing them through member services.

Since you only bought it for the Memory Maker do you have an AP?
If so I wouldn't buy MMB if that is the only reason as AP's include the memory maker (RIP) or you can add it on for $99 (also RIP) or you can now add it on for $109.

So for as it it stands now its $10 more than MMB but it lasts for all of your trips that your AP is valid for not just 30 years.
