Oh man, I love Mousesavers!

[mom of five]

Can't stop dancing.

Okay, Just bought 3adult and 4kid tickets for DQ through the mousesavers link. I called the number and told them I heard about them (ticketmania) through mousesavers and got the tickets for $139.00.

I was going to buy them at the door!!! That would of cost $205.58 (well, actually 181.58 with AP discount).

So, a big thank you to mousesavers for saving me $42!

Not to mention the codes awhile back for resturant.com where I bought a $25 GC for $3! And a 50% of entire food bill GC for $1.88!

How could my family of 7 ever make it to disney without mousesavers or the Dis???

MouseSavers is the best!

What is resturant.com? How do the gift certificates work?

Okay do you remember which post had the codes?? Also which restaurants did you get. Ido not know everytime I try to find this kind of stuff I just get to a dead end. I went to restaurant.com but I did not find any of the great places people seem to talk about. HELP! I am really getting frustrated. I know how to use a computer and trust me I am one of the best bargain shoppers in the world but this thing is really eluding me!!!

Bella the Ball 360,
The restaurant.com coupon expired on April 30 and I haven't seen anything like it since. I had actually gotten the coupon code in my email b/c I had made purchases thru them b4. You can check them on eBay as well. They frequently have the same GCs up for auction that they have available on their site for $10. Most of the auctions start at $1.

Disneycrazymom,
Restaurant.com is a website that sells gift certificates to restaurants at a discounted price. Typically, a $25 gift certificate sells for $10 and 50% off the total bill GCs go for about $6.25. The restaurants change frequently but you can get Orlando restaurants like Baskerville's and the HIFS Club Car almost regularly.

Once you pay for the GC, you are emailed a link to a page that you print out. That's your GC. There can be restrictions placed on the use of the GC (minimum party of 4, dinner only, no holidays) but they vary from GC to GC and are clearly stated on them.



mom of five,
I agree that mousesavers has been a BIG help in cutting the costs of my vacation. Mary has been a great source of bargain info. Now if only the room-only discounts for July would come out, my bargain hunting would be complete!

Well, the restaurant.com code expired on 4/30 so perhaps another will come along. In the meantime, you can sometimes find them for $5 for a $25 gc on ebay. Go to ebay.com then click on 'stores' then type in search box "restaurant". The first link should be to restaurant.com. Once you are there, then type in Orlando, Lake Buena Vista, or Florida (or your home state as well!) and you can search. There are many but I haven't ever seen any 'disney' restaurants. There are offsite restaurants but most I've never heard of and have no clue as to the distance. I have seen the discounts for the dinner shows occasionally, like Medieval Times and Pirate's Dinner.

At Mousesavers, from the home page, click "Walt Disney World" then follow the links to different categories, such as "tickets & passes", "meals and snacks", "resorts", etc. She has a ton of info and I think her site is usually easy to navigate.

Good luck.
