Stretching money

[katiemay]

Hi

This is my first post on here. Arghh

OK, so I would like some help. I am desperately trying to save for a summer trip this year.

I would love any tips and tricks to saving money, and any tips on booking anything on the cheaper side. We never stay on site, and its just me and the BF, so no children to spoil any magic for. We just find it cheaper off site.

Also how to stretch our limited ££ into lots of $$$$$ in the world of Disney.

We normally buy some food from Walmart to try to keep costs down. Food in the parks can be so expensive.

Any suggestions would be great.
Thanks

welcome to the DIS

I've done two dining on a budget reviews - links in my signature.

Lots of tips about coupons, packed lunches, refill mugs etc! Hope they help.

Are you stuck with summer dates?

US disney usually offers free dining for Late August/September - QSDP at a value, DDP moderate or deluxe. Not been released yet as far as I know.

A value with free QSDP may work out cheaper than offsite + food especially as you wont need transport or to pay parking.

Thank you for the welcome

Thanks, I shall have a look. Sure it will be very helpful.

I am stuck with summer really. Real pain, but I'm a teaching assistant, hopefully full time teacher in September. Am hoping to go the very last part of August.

OK I shall look into staying on site. I think I've just always thought it was going to be alot more expensive.

I shall have a look see now
thanks
