How much is your 2013 WDW vacation going to cost you?

[erinkpoole]

5 nights, Jan 2-7th, Pop Century, 2 adults, 2 junior, 5 day base tickets, QSDP with s/p/d discount $1791
1 night, Jan 1st, AKV Kidani Standard Studio, rented points $121
Gas, Atlanta, round trip, Camry hybrid, $120

Total $2032

I am sure we will spend more for food that first day and on new t-shirts, pins to trade from ebay, etc. before the trip.

We would also like to upgrade our ticket to AP as we have a spring break trip planned!

Airfare will be free thanks to points. The rest, let's just call it, "priceless". Memories that will last a lifetime.

Have you ever thought about using stayatWDW to rent DVC points. We used them for our trip and saved over 2K. I have full access to my reservation and they provide some awesome perks for booking with them.

All Star Sports
free quick service dining
regular 5 day tickets

Grand total - $1648.00
*will probably add park hopper, which would add around 200.00 more....

Do you mind if I ask what promotion you are using? I have basically same package as you but almost double the price

I booked it online with no promo, then called a few weeks later to add dining. Then out came the Stay/Play/Dine promo so I called back to adjust to that one. Literally 4 minutes after I got off the phone, I got an email with a PIN for free dining.

You need to call and get the Stay/Play/Dine promo applied to your package. It's basically saying you pay rack rate for the room and then child's rates for everyone else. When we had that one it was about $400 more than what we're paying now.

[arcticdisneylovers]

January 21st - 31st - Family of 3
10 nights at CR with 10 day hopper passes
$4,935.00
Airfare $7,500.00 (we live in the arctic)
$2,000.00 OOP for food & snacks (estimate)
$1,000.00 souvenirs & gifts (estimate)
So probably $15,000 or so
Worth every penny
We'll actually be on vacation for over 3 weeks so Disney is just a portion of our trip and we stay for free with my parents most of the rest of trip so we splurge on WDW
