Plus, if you travel between January 4 and March 29 and you will also get a $200 Disney Gift Card! Hubby called this afternoon to change our January ressies. We'd originally booked with a AAA discount, so already had a pretty good deal. This has saved us an extra $450 on top of that! Woohoo!

Originally Posted By LacyBelle I was confused by that, too. I'm not sure why the WDW site specifically calls out Value Resorts. We are staying at a Moderate (POFQ) and were able to get in on it. It's always worth a try.

Originally Posted By seafairy1622 was able to book movies with only a 1-day park ticket for 10 nights 3 nights free! This works for us! Now I am more excited about our trip. We were only going to stay at a disney resort half the time we were there but with this deal we are staying the whole time! and one day in the park! My boyfriend said he was wondering how I was going to Orlando and not go to the parks. I was going to do it and just go to DTD. The one time he went to the parks they were so crowded (it was July), it was hard for him to enjoy it. I've been in June twice and for some reason it is not as crowded. Now He can see Epcot! When he went we couldn't not get past the mob of people to see it. So I am excited!

He says we will have to "price it out" so it's not a done deal yet, but at least I've planted a bug in his ear!
Originally Posted By Autopia Deb We booked 2 adults (12/13 YO boy is adult, sigh) for less than $1100. Of course there is still flight and food, but I'm putting money away every month so I won't have to worry. I'm getting Costco to deliver a flat of water bottles to us at our resort to save money. I'm also going to see if they can deliver apples and granola bars for breakfasts/snacks.
