If you must go somewhere to eat, make it McDonald's in Downtown Disney. Don't ever buy souvenirs. Don't drive your own vehicle anywhere. Use your old Disney mugs anywhere you go and never tip. That ought to do it.
Or not.

I get that you were kidding, but I think you went a little overboard. There are many money saving tips to be shared that don't involve anything shady or "cheap." I know the title of this thread is Cheapskate tips, but I have always thought it was to help everyone save a little.

PS, the McDonald's at DtD will not save you that much money. It is more expensive than any other McDonald's I have ever been to.

She could be referring to tipping.

Is the Mc D's at DTD the same price as the other one on site close to HS, in AK or (limited version at) Epcot? Can't remember, been so long since we've eaten at any of them. Not a big Mc D fan anymore but DD's are. DD9 ate her first cheeseburger last year and has now decided she likes them.

btw, Personnaly I usually associate on-line humor with some sort of little smiley's or something. If I don't see them, rarely do I see things meant to be funny. imo.
