WOW!!
I am looking at some of these posts and am amazed at the $$$$$.
My wife and I along with our two boys (11yr & 5 yr) will be staying at CSR in September.
We will only be there for 5 nights but are super excited about our 1st stay on Disney property.
I have been to Disney numerous times growing up, but since my Uncle has always worked there we always stayed at his house. He is now retired and as a early Christmas present to my family gave us (4) 4-day park hopper tickets.
He also booked our room for us and got his discounted rate for us. (I am going to have to take he and my Aunt out for a really nice dinner!!)
So after I paid for the room and taxes we are looking at just under $500.00
Now granted we are not on any meal plan so all the food and "extras" are not included in the costs. No airfare (just a 6hr car ride with both kids).
All in all, I do not think we could of afforded Disney this year without such awesome relatives.
I figure we would of been around $2,500.00 without my Uncle.

I'm still thinking if i should upgrade to park hopper tickets, what do you guys think?
I didn't know about the 10yr old adult thing. There is no way we would have waited another 2 years! As for hopping in August weather, we will need it for the water parks and don't forget dining at certain parks. c'est la vie!
