Just purchased our park tickets!

Hi everyone. I am just in a happy place right now because we purchased our theme park tickets on the weekend at the local Disney store!!! We have a room only reservation as I thought it would be a small cost savings to buy our tickets locally. I have been trying to get our 5 day base tickets from the Disney Store at Square one for months as they never had any in! Walked in by chance on the weekend, and they got a new batch in so we grabbed them. We purchased them AT PAR, so that's a few dollars saved since we're below the US$1 mark now. I know about undercover tourist, but I like to be able to buy them in person and get them as soon as I hand over the cash too and not chance anything to mail. So for those of you still in need of your tickets, try the Disney Store.

I just bought mine last week from AAA. I am so excited. Two of my kids picked out who they wanted on their tickets & I told my 2 yo her's was the Mickey one (dh's) as she loves Mickey.

I took pictures of them & I am ready to go, well not really but I have my list ready.

Congrats! Hope you've got them in a safe place. I know I have a few safe places in my house that are sooo safe even I can't remember where they are.

Good for you! I always love it when we finally purchase the tickets. It makes it all seem real for me.

Don't forget to make a few photocopies of the backs of the tickets in case someone looses one or leaves it in a fastpass machine! Disney can reissue a ticket if they have a copy of the back of the ticket. I make a few photocopies and keep one in my room safe, one in my fannypack, one in my DH's wallet, etc. Those tickets are too expensive to chance it!

Yay for you!

I got my package at CAA and it was pretty darned cheap!

We don't have tockets yet, we pick them up when we get there, but We did get our MNSSHP tickets awhile ago in the mail! That was so exciting! We needed something to be able to actually touch and look at instead of a print out of our itinerary!

As far as you want. As long as you don't use them, they don't expire. once you use them, then you have 14 days. unless you get no experiation,

We just bought our tickets this morning too! I didn't get them at the Disney Store, even though I do work there! We went through Undercover Tourist. Their 6 day park hopper is the same price as a 3 day, so we got a discount. And no shipping1 We have used them before, years ago, and they are great!

Thank you everyone for sharing in the joy with me!!! Only 9 days left and we'll be at WDW!!!! I was happy my girls got to pick out their cards themselves at the store, my youngest of course got Tinkerbell (her fave right now), the older one chose Prince Charming and Cinderella, I got the four dwarves and my youngest picked out Mickey and friends for daddy!!!
Thanks for the tip on photocopying for reference!
