"The Cheapskate's Guide to Walt Disney World" book

Was looking through Wal mart's website and found this book.

I have never seen it so I'm not sure if it's brand new or just new to Wal Mart.

Just thought I would post about it.

Edit: Just enlarged the picture and it says 4th edition. Thought I would post about it anyways.

I have an older edition of this book and I was overwhelmingly unimpressed with it. I get much better advise on these boards that I found between the covers. The writing is okay...well-organized and easy to comprehend...but the content was lacking. I hope that it has been improved in the years since it's last revision.

I also got suckered into buying this book a few years ago. There's *much* better advice here and on Mousesavers.

I'm glad I posted about it then. I was going to buy it when I found it, but now I won't even bother.

Thanks for the heads up!!!

I bought a copy of this book about 18 months ago and regretted it too. The best example I can give of how disappointing it was is that the author was talking about room discounts. He or she mentioned to always ask about getting the rack rate for a room. The author said he didn't know what "rack rate" meant, but that more often than not it will save you some money. When I read that, I closed the book and tossed it aside never to be opened again. :rolleyes

I nominate AKA Mad4theMouse, DisneySteve, Mousesavers Mary W. to colaborate on book like this. I know I'd buy it!
