How much $$$ to take for 3 people?

[cosmocricket]

We are going the first week of February and I'm trying to plan ahead and save a little extra $$$. We will be arriving on Sunday, at the parks Mon-Friday and leave on Saturday. We have the Disney Dining Plan included and will do a couple of character meals with that. I plan on giving my daughter (age 6)$50 in Disney gift cards for Christmas plus she should have about $50 saved of her own by then too. I can't really see us buying much in the way of souvenirs other than maybe one tshirt for me. How much extra cash should we plan on taking?

Note: My daughter and I were just there in June so she already got a bunch of souvies then.

Well, I think you have everything covered! The only thing I can think of is tips for your table service meals. Maybe just calculate what you think it will be, and only take that am't with you each day?

I bring very little cash. I will use my Disney Visa, and I have a $100 gift card. I hate worrying about carrying around and possibly losing the cash.

Good point. I forgot about dining tips and mousekeeping tips. Thanks for the reminder on that. I'm so excited. I wish it were here already.

Oh, yeah, mousekeeping! I forgot about that!
