    Have a great trip!

    I have a Disney Visa too, and my mom has AAA. I can just see it now, everywhere we go... "Is there any discount with a Deluxe Annual Pass, a Disney Visa, or AAA?" :)

Don't count on them to offer it-you generally have to tell them what discount you get although we did notice that most CMs knew the AP discount.

    Also the Visa discount on Merchandise can only be used if you spend $50 so do all your shopping together.

    Here is the post I did recently to try and put it all together:
    "Now I think I've gotten it all straight. Here is the list for all the discounts that I have to carry around with me at DL-lol. We have DAPs, Disney Visa, and AAA.

    With the Visa, 10% off merchandise if you spend $50 or more-not valid on DVD, VHS, software, etc-lots of exclusions mainly artwork and classic collections but good at resort stores and pin carts. Not good at the "art type"stands like portraits and silhouettes.

    Visa Dining discount 10% off at only Rancho del Zocalo, Carnation Cafe, RRPizza, Pizza Omm mow mow, Wine Country Tratoria and the Vinyard room, Yambuki, PCH Grill and Granville's (only6-10pm). Also get 2 free strollers per day and free picture at DCA, 20% off tours.

    AAA 10% off food at Plaza inn-incl character breakfasts, Ariels Grotto, Goofy's Kitchen, PCH Grill and Wine Country Tratoria. No merchandise discounts.

    DAP gets 10% off almost all food including BB, etc. No merchandise discount in the parks but in DTD at lots of stores including Lego.

    So having all 3 things, we are covered! It would have been another 700 to get all PAP and I think we would have never spent that much in merchandise to have the discount cover the cost.

    Does anyone else have this list all set up with everything on it you'd care to share? That way we could make sure to have everything listed.

    Still a little unclear about the Visa merch discounts. Spent over $50 in Lego and missed asking for the discount! Is build a bear included? Thanks."

    We had a very persnickety CM who heard me say to my daughter to please use her AP to buy something for me along with her things that she was buying. The CM said to her "I am sorry but APs are not transferable", I quickly pulled out my AP and said I was just having her do that for MY convenience-SEE I TOO have an AP!
