[The Goof Father]

I usually love to splurge when I go to Disneyland, but on occasion I will cut a corner so that I can have even more fun.

So I would love to hear some of the money saving tips and tricks that others of you have used here at Disneyland! I have seen some similar topics on the DW side of the forums, but some of those tips and tricks do not apply to DL… I don’t care if it is a little tacky, a little weird or tight-wad seeming! I want to hear! I may learn something!

Here are a few of mine:

* I buy an Annual Passport and use it to book an on-site resort room for a lot less. That usually more than covers the cost of an Annual Passport over a X day park hopper.

* Now that my family is hooked on pin trading we attend the pin trading class at the pin store in Tomorrowland. At the class they teach you some of the trading etiquette and also give you a pin. Each person gets one free pin (and once we got two). I will be sad if they are not doing this little class + freebie still…

* We also steer towards some of the resort or DL restaurants that reward Annual Passport holders with trading pins when you spend certain dollar amounts for a meal.

* My family tends to eat a lot of Pop Tarts and quick stuff for breakfasts instead of spending lots for a full breakfast meal.


There, now that is a start! Fill me in with some wonderful or even whacky tips to save some $$$!!!
