Ok here is the scenario........
How can paying $400 extra for a 10 day "non expiring" hopper pass save you money? It is a difference of $400 just to not expire. Will that truly save us money? I'm so torn. We are going in September and i was planning on only buying a 3day hopper. Then i was looking into a long term hopper for future trips but will we really save? I'm sooo confused! Also If I buy the 10day non exp hopper now will I be able to buy one for my almost 3 year old later?? Or do I buy one for him now? He is 2 1/2. I can use all the
discounts i can get! LOL
Thanks for making sense of this.

First, if your child is free now I would wait until they need a ticket to buy one.
Second, lets just break it down for one adult ticket.
According to the WDW website
A 3 day hopper is $237.00
A 10 day hopper non-expiring is $409.00
If you bought a 3day now and then another 3 day in the future it would cost you $474.00 for 6 days of admission. That would be $65.00 more than a 10 day hopper non-expiring. So what it comes down to is you would save $65.00 and you would be getting 4 extra days of admission with the 10 day. If you are definately making another trip in the near future and you can afford the extra money now, you would be saving quite a bit. Make sense?
