Looking to trim a few dollars

[Magic Mark]

Hi all,

I'm taking my family to WDW in late April. But first I am visiting my mother near Tampa. Mom is going to join us at WDW for 3 days. Is it possible for her to buy the passes for my children and recieve the Florida residence discount (3 day bounce back passes)? Has any of you done this?

We start driving from NH in 18 days.

Thanks,

Mark

Someone else may have had a different experience... but my neighbours (whose family is from the States)... had mil/mother buy the passes for the boys (10, 12 , 15, I think)... and they were asked there, to provide proof that they lived, at least part of the year.. in Florida.

It was not a nice experience for them.

How old are your children and will your mother be going to the parks with them? I have heard of people doing this w/ small children when going w/ a FL resident, but since I've never done it I can't say. But what's a 3-day bounce back pass? I've never heard of this one.

FYI - you already get a slight discount on the 3 day bounce back. I have no idea if Florida residents get an additional discount.

I purchased these last year and they it was $5 off the second day and $10 off the third day.

Bounce back Tickets are 1 park,1 day tickets[no hopping],they need to be purchased the first day at a WDW,at the guest services window. 1st ticket is reg. price,2nd $5.00 off,3rd day$10. off.

The problem is there is no park hopping so If a park gets too crowded as MK often does you can't hop to a less crowded park.
