I have one booked but will probably not go.

Free dining 11/25-11/30 at Sports for two adults. $1650. I guess you could add $350 for gas and other things so 2K would be close.

12/08/2018-12/15/2018
Pop Century Resort
2 Adults, 1 Child
6-Day Park Hopper tickets
Delicious Free Offer + Deluxe Dining Plan Upgrade
Memory Maker (+$169.00)
Tickets to MVMCP (+$310.99)
Total, before airfare: $4203.56

Paying for everything Disney via Disney GCs purchased via Target Red Card. Tedious, but worth the 5% savings.

Budgeting up to $1,000 for airfare, hoping to keep that to under $800.

Do you use disneygiftcard site to combine your GCs? You can combine up to $1000 onto 1 GC. We do this to eliminate a lot of GCs. I will Use the $1000 GC's to payoff our room before check-in, this way I only have to give the CM 1 or 2 GC numbers and not a bunch. Then I normally will break up the rest into $500 GC's.

Little under 5000. Rented points to stay at Poly for 6 nights. 6 day Park hoppers and deluxe dining for 3 people. I lost count when I reserved my rental car...

 

[ClapYourHands]

Going in November with one adult, one “Disney adult,” and one child.

Will probably be about $3K all in.

That’s for flights on Jet Blue from LGA, one night at Pop, four nights at the Swan (on points), five day park hoppers, food (combo of QS in the parks and packed food and breakfast in hotel room), and airport parking in NY.

 

[Catvondita]

For a 3 day weekend about $1890 and figure maybe $300 ish on food maybe a little more or less. Physically writing this out is making me realize what a nut job me and my husband are for spending $2000 on a super short trip.

10 days at Poly
2 adults, 2 16yo, 1 3yo
8/16-8/25
$2630 for Poly
$1086 for two 9 day ph tix (the rest of us have annual passes)

$3716 total, paid entirely with Disney gift cards bought at Target so an additional savings of $185.80, after savings actually paid $3530.20.

This is a stay with my sister as well, so I don’t know what she will be paying for food, but for my daughter (3) and I, I’ve priced our meals to be about $480, with annual pass discount at a few places, and 2 MNSSHP tix for $152.30. Total $632.30, also paying with gift cards from Target, actual total $600.68.

My total cost for myself and my daughter for 10 days at Poly, food, and MNSSHP $1849.93 + souvenir $$. This trip will be cheaper than our trip next year at Pop for 10 days with free dining by $382.23 (though we will need tickets next year).

5 days at Art of Animation "Finding Nemo Family Suite", 10\31 - 11\04
"3" adults, 2 children (13, 11, 4)
6 day admission, 1 park per day
5 tickets to MNSSHP on 10\31 ~$600
Memory Maker
Disney Deluxe Dining Plan
Airfare for 5 from EWR to MCO on United $189.00 - I redeemed some of my FF miles that I earn on work travel to pay for 4.5 of the tickets.
Gifts and Trinkets to be paid for via a Disney GC that we will buy with the funds in our coin jar. Based on previous experience and its weight, I'd say the kids have about $450 that they can spend.

Total $6016 + 600 + 189 = $6805 for the Disney piece.

We follow that up with 4 nights at Universal and then we use the last day on our Disney tickets to visit the Magic Kingdom before we fly home.

The total for this adventure will be around $9000. If I had to buy all of the plane tickets, it would have been around $10250.

Ouch! I hope everyone in my family has a magical time lol.

I'm a little frightened to do the math and even more frightened to do the US$ - CAD$ conversion!

We are two adults and one “Disney” adult. (13 year old)

Flights YYJ-MCO return: $1002.79 each x3: $3008.37 however, we had vouchers from Delta so flights only cost $308.37
8 nights AKV DVC rental: $2163.00
2 nights BCV direct from WDW: $750.96
7 day park tickets: 2 tickets were through redeeming Airmiles, the 3rd was purchased. $429.06CAD x3: 1287.18 but out of pocket amount $429.06CAD, aprox. $330.00
MNSSHP x3 adults: $240.00
HEA Dessert Party x3 adults: $207.00
Star Wars Dessert Party x3 adults: $237.00
Tiffins ROL dinnner x3: $201.00 (pre-tax and tip)

So, before any meals (other than the ROL dinner) we are at just a hair under $7800.00 value for which we have paid out of pocket $4437.33

We've got quite a few ADRs booked:
Le Cellier dinner
50's PT lunch
Morimoto Asia dinner
LTT lunch
Sanaa dinner
Garden Grill breakfast
Rose & Crown dinner
Y&Y lunch
Boma breakfast
BOG dinner
SciFi lunch

I don't want to calculate how much our meals are going to cost but I'm estimating at no less than $3000.00 for meals. We don't buy a ton of souvenirs so I'll add maybe another $250 for that.

So, estimated value of approximately $11,000 with an out of pocket cost of around $7,700.00

Convert that to Canadian and it is around $14,300.00 ($10,000.00 oop)

Can I ask how you were able to get 10 days at the Poly for $2630? That is an amazing price and I have never seen a price that low.
