Re: Please share Disneyland $$$ saving tips & tricks!

Another pin trading tip...

When I went last in May 2004 I spent a chunk of change on pins and lanyards at the Emporium on Main Street in Disneyland.

For each $20 or $25 I spent on pins we got a pin... I think we got a tiny pin of Cleo from Pinnochio! We purchased a bunch of pins and also came away with a handful of freebies...

Just one note! I believe this was on the first Sunday of the month. If I recall correctly, the pin is released at that time and of course it may run out! I also cannot recall if this is a Sunday only sort of deal! Sorry! But I want to make sure I do not mislead my Disney pals!

I am hoping to be able to do "this" again...

Oh, and I just found out about the pin trading class for kids. It was called Kid's Pin Talk. Sadly, it is no longer being held!!!

I sure hope it comes back!

I have found good DLR hotel rates on Cheaptickets and expedia...much lower than I could get from Disney.

Ok, I am confused on the free pin dealie... is it just for AP holders, or not? I'm eating at Blue Bayou and Storyteller's Cafe, but I am not an AP holder.

The dining pins are for AP holders only... Sorry!

The 1st Sunday of the month you can often score free pins at some of the DL stores when you buy pin related items. See my pin trading tip above.

Yes, I took note of that too. Luckily one of my friends eating with us at the Blue Bayou is a passholder, so maybe we will luck out, as I am sure she already will have the pin for the time period. Thanks for clearing that up!
