One should always take the opportunity to go to Disneyland..

On looking at DLR it doesn't look like they have a value, you stay "off resort"

There are three onsite hotels, the Grand Californian, The Disneyland Hotel, and the Paradise Pier. None are exceptionally cheap..

DL page is also showing a special 5 days for the price of 3 right now thru April. Can someone who is familiar with DL figure out a "cheap package" for me if we decided to make a trip...
At least I would have advice of what to do/what not to do.
I can always dream anyways, right?

The best thing about Disneyland is that Anaheim has a lot of hotels..
I have been a premium annual passholder since 2003. And I live 5,000 miles away.
To do a package, buy a three or four day pass online. For a hotel,
I try to use Priceline to get a nice hotel for the least amount of money. On the average, I've stayed at the Hyatt, Hilton or Marriot for around $50.00 a night.
If you rent a car, you can easily afford to stay in a city outside of Anaheim, thereby getting "free parking" along with your hotel room. If you don't want to rent a car, there is a trolley that takes you to your hotel, if it's not within walking distance. See Voldemort's and my trip reports. This was the first time I went to Disneyland without a car. It wasn't completely inconvenient. In fact, it's probably the same as the bus situation at WDW.
If you have any other questions, ask away..
