The Ultimate Guide to an Affordable Disney World Vacation has officially been released! When I first started the journey to write a book, I was planning just to have it as an eBook download here on the site.

After talking to many readers of this site, something became very clear to me – Disney World was just getting too expensive to many families. I polled many readers to see what they spent on their vacations, the average cost for a family of four to go was over [click to continue…]

Since I don’t recommend bringing peanut butter and jelly sandwiches into the parks for meals, you’ll probably have to splurge a bit by eating at the restaurants. I do enjoy eating in the parks even though the food is overpriced. I think it just helps you feel like you’re enjoying yourself more on your vacation.

Original Post:

For those of you who are keeping their fingers crossed that Disney announces a free dining package for 2016, I possibly have some good news. Earlier this week, Disney rolled out a new free dining promotion, discount tickets + $200 Disney Gift Card promotion available in the UK only for dates in early 2017.
