Hi
I am completely new to the use of discounts and codes. So please forgive me if I am asking stupid questions. Has anyone heard of the offer of Disney Special Dreams? I was reading about it on Mousesavers but not sure about how to use it or if I can use it. We are planning on going Nov 24th to Nov 30th. I would appreciate any help. Thanks.
Is this the one? Per mousesavers.com -Package Code ZDN:
Disney Special Dreams Offer
For check-ins 11/1/06-12/23/06 you can get a special discount on a Magic Your Way vacation package. 11/19/06-11/23/06 and 12/2/06-12/8/06 may be excluded from this offer. Some hotels may have limited or no availability for certain dates.
Prices start at $369 per adult based on double occupancy at a select Disney value resort in standard room, for a 5-night/6-day package. Prices for the same package start at $217 per Junior (ages 10-17), $176 per child (ages 3-9) when they stay in a room with two adults.
The discount can be applied to a regular Magic Your Way vacation package or to a Magic Your Way Package Plus Dining.
This package offer covers some of the same dates as the previous "Season of Dreams Package" offer and offers similar rates. However, in a few cases it seems rooms at certain hotels have been opened up for discounting that were not available with the previous offer.
You must book by 10/31/06. Requires a 3-night minimum stay. The number of rooms allocated for this offer is limited. Tickets must be used within 14 days of first use unless you add the No Expiration option for an extra cost. No group rates or other discounts apply.
To give an example of the savings, just for the heck of it I priced a standard view 11/25 - 11/30 2 adults, 6 day MYW base tickets (no hopping,etc. just for comparison purposes) and it came in:
"Regular" AKL
$1833.26 total ($2213.16 w/dining)
vs $1383 ($1763.16 w/dining) using ZDN code = save $450.26 using code
POP
$991.92 total ($1371.86 w/dining)
vs $737.66 ($1117.56 w/dining) using ZDN code = save $254.26 using code

Room only code BRZ:
Room-Only Discount Codes
For check-ins 10/30/06-12/23/06 you can get a special discount on Walt Disney Resort hotels. 11/19/06-11/23/06 and 12/2/06-12/8/06 may be excluded from this offer. Some hotels may have limited or no availability for certain dates.
While this discount is valid at a variety of Disney Resorts, some sample prices/ night (excluding tax) include:
Wilderness Lodge with a court yard view for $245 (regular season) or $209 (value season)
Wilderness Lodge with a woods view for $210 (regular season) or $189 (value season)
Polynesian Resort with a garden view $304 (regular season)
Animal Kingdom Lodge with a pool view $205 (regular season)
Other resorts and room types are also available at varying discounts!
Book by 10/29/06. In some cases, AAA rates were better than the room-only discounted rates. Some blackout dates and other restrictions may apply. Discount codes must be thought of as a "clearance sale" -- if you want the discount, you have to be willing to take what's left over! It's important to be flexible with both dates and hotels, and to be persistent in calling back periodically to see if anything has opened up. This discount has limited availability.
Just for another example, pricing 11/25-11/30 2 adults, room only special code BRZ
AKL
$1400.70 total vs
$1035 using BRZ = save $365.70
POP
$556.90 total vs
$500.70 = save $56.20
(BTW You can't add dining to a room only res)

Do you already have/how do you have your stay booked now? You should price it out every way to see if any would be better than the way you have yours booked now if you do- but if you already have a discount you can't "stack" another discount on top, you have to pick the one best discount and go with that.

You can also call 407-W-Disney for quotes, or email dreamsunlimited travel (they have a link here on the DIS) to help too.
Post again if you need help!
Seahunt, you just saved me about $345!!! Which convinced my DH that we really can afford to go with such a short notice. I really can't say thank you enough. I couldn't figure out how to find the page to add the code. 
The link you added ended all my frustration.
