need advise on the best way to use these FREE tickets!
We have 4 adults, 2 kids. arriving sat about 2pm leaving following friday for 9pm flight. We had planned to buy 7 day tickets. spend some time at Epcot that first night since the cost to add a day is so little. I have been give TEN tickets from an ABC employee. What is the best (save the most) way to use these?

1 adult uses 7 tickets individually (free)
1 adult uses 3 tickets, buys 4 day tickets ($254)
Buy 2 adult 7 day tickets ($526)
Buy 2 child 7 day tickets($482)

Total $1262

Really the best way is to take away one adult that needs tickets - that's where you'll save the most money. If you take off a day from everyone, you only save a minimal amount, this way you save almost $300!

If you want to get park hoppers instead, you should get 3 adult 7 day tickets, and the 1 adult using the free tickets should use 2 tickets on one day. You'd be limited to park hopping 3 times, but I think the savings would be worth it.

Correct. This is really the only way yo save a significant amount of money at all.

That is the best way I could figure it too. Just thought maybe there was something I was missing. With 10 tickets it just seemed like there had to be a way to make it save more. It's like one of those crazy math questions that you finally get an answer but it seems there is no way it is correct.
Thanks for your help!

add never expire to the kids tickets, use the free tickets. When the kids turn ten upgrade the never expire to adult tickets and enjoy the savings over the price hikes.

That would be much more expensive.

Today it would, in the long run ... probably not.
