What's Free At Disneylan?

[never2muchdisney]

Last trip we took, our cafeteria server told us to keep our receipt for our coffee purchase, and we could get free refills at any of the counters or restaurants that serve coffee. The offer is good for the day you purchase the coffee only, not your entire trip. What have you found free at Disneyland?

This one is at California Adventure. If you do the mission tortilla factory tour, they will give you a warm, fresh, tortilla at the end.

Same with the Boudin sourdough factory.

With regards to the coffee refill, I don't think that's entirely true. I know that French Market is unique in that they allow refills...for the others, I think that you could only get refills if it's during your meal there. I don't think you can go and then come back and get a refill.


If you're celebrating something (anniversary, honeymoon, birthday, family reunion) you can get buttons for no charge.

You can get a free map of the Jungle Cruise....when you exit the boat ask one of the CMs for one.

You may be right, and we may have misunderstood, thinking it was for all cafeterias and counter services, being she said cafeterias and counters. We were at the French Market in New Orleans when we purchased coffee with our lunch. We happened to be back at the French Market later that afternoon, and that's where we got a free cup of coffee after showing our receipt. I didn't even think about it being the same restaurant that we made our first purchase at. And we didn't try any other places for a free cup.

That's one I have been wanting to grab, but I keep forgetting to ask every time

This one is with a caveat, but if you have a Disney Visa, you can get a free 5x7 Photopass photograph at an exclusive cardmember's Disney Character meet & greet at DCA Hollywood Pictures Backlot.

Is there anywhere you can get a free soda refill?

 

[Califgirl]

Rancho del Zocalo, the mexican restaurant has self serve soda machines. You can get a free refill on the same dining visit if you show your reciept to go back into the restaurant to refill your cup, and then show your reciept again on your way out, at the register. It's not infinitely refillable, but you can get a refill right before you leave the restaurant if you would like.

Let's see...

- Fresh filtered water at the baby care center on Main Street.

- Drivers license at Autopia.

- Beads from Tatiana's show in NOS

- A hieroglyphic's decoder guide for the writing at Indy (available at City Hall, not sure if they still have them)

There's other things I'm forgetting. Someone will post them.

This one is at California Adventure. If you do the mission tortilla factory tour, they will give you a warm, fresh, tortilla at the end.

You can get a full pack if it is your birthday.

They also have free cold water on tap at the hot sauce station. I often stop in and grab a quick cup or two -- even if I'm not eating there. Beats paying for bottled water .

The heiroglyphic decoder is best downloaded from the Indy page on disneyland.com.


Should you get a headache or a turned ankle, the First Aid Center makes the BEST ice packs.


I have yet to find a JC cast member paying enough attention, after I disembark, to ask for one of the maps...


Not sure they are giving the full packs of tortillas for birthdays anymore, and also they've been giving out corn tortillas more often nowadays. I love corn tortillas normally, but NOT the ones they make there! Funny, really...we eat Mission brand tortillas at home, both flour and corn...the DCA ones are better in the flour version than at the store, but awful in the corn version at DCA.

I can confirm that they still do give a full pack(3) if you have a birthday button. Also, they were flour for me last weekend.

Speaking of the birthday buttons, those are free, as are all of the other types of buttons.

Also it is free to email your Buzz Lightyear onride photo to yourself.

Glad you got flour!

Full pack used to be 6+. That's how it was for DS's 4th birthday in '08, but it had changed by his '09 b'day and my b'day last October.

I got corn tortillas 3 weeks ago, I didnt like them, didnt know they were usually corn.

I have asked the CM helping us off the boat before or walked up to that little hut thing on the left (as you exit) and asked one of the CMs in there.

Great thread ladies, for someone new to the whole Disney thing this is a great resource Thank you!!
