Cheapest way to get 1 MYW Ticket

[scottmel]

Looking for one day admission to Epcot for party of 3. LOWEST deal I can find is thru DH employer for 12% discount off gate price. I thought this was kind of cheap but really can't find ANY Discount on a 1 day anywhere else. ANYONE?

Not sure, but you could check www.mapleleaftickets.com/ I know they had a good price for Universal tickets a while back but I am not sure about WDW, especially one day tickets.

Thanks. I should add that any ticket broker I found is HIGHER than disney for a 1 day admission, including undercovertourist, mapleleaf adn Triple A. Apparently Disney does not offer their 1 day ticket at a discount anywhere. So the 12% I scoffed at looks better !!

I need a 2 day MYW and would LOVE to find a 12% discount. My employer has tons of discounts, just not WDW.

Cheshire Figment has repeatedly posted that there really aren't any discounts on 1-2 day tickets and that some resellers actually charge a premium for them since Disney does not discount them to the resellers.

So if you have a source for 12% I would take it (12% off is really a very large amount for an authorized ticket reseller, that's one of the better deals I've seen on any reseller ticket).

Ironically enough Vicki it is IBM that is the discounter. Even beat Ford which suprised me maybe b/c IBM has the technology stuff at Epcot...But yes 12% is looking terrific to me about now. We are only doing 1 Disney park this trip and we all need and Epcot Fix!!! Thanks!

Minnie J has previously posted a thread about giving a donation to a children's hospital and getting a 1 day ticket.

I feel your pain Mel! We were there in November and only had 1 Disney day (we were doing space shuttle/US/IOA) using up some leftover days on old tickets from about 7-8 years ago!

I wanted to do more Disney days, but I couldn't bring myself to spend the $$.

If the tax deduction would be helpful you can donate to the hospital.

It does seem to be a good cause.

The 12% discounted ticket could be a promotional (non-standard) ticket that among other things cannot be upgraded to have more days. It would be perfect for a one day visit (or a 2 day visit or a 3 day visit but not more).

Disney tickets given away at raffles or in exchange for donations are usually such promotional tickets.

I don't believe you can take a tax deduction when you receive goods or services for the donation.

You can, but you have to subtract the value of what you received from what you donated, AFAIK.

It's a great cause and a pretty sweet deal. But no tax deduction allowed. You're getting something back in exchange. See the fine print on the foundation's website. The value exceeds the donation.
