What is the best way to save money when visiting Disney Resorts?

A friend's family is planning a trip to Disney in Florida this year. They are hoping to stay within the theme park at one of the Disney resort hotels and to enjoy as many of the events and special character shows as possible. However, they have a family of four (total) and will need to stay within a reasonable budget. Are there Disney Land or Disney World coupons? What are the best ways to save money when traveling to, staying at and visiting these theme parks? Do you need to have a Disney credit card to get the best discounts? Thanks for any tips and advice.

These are some great ways to be able to save on money when visiting Disney World in 2010:

1. There is a promo called "Disney's Give a Day Get a Disney Day, take advantage of this so that you will enjoy free entrance to Walt Disney World Resort for volunteering. You have to pre-register to avail of this promo.

2. If you can schedule your trip during off-season that would work to your advantage because you will notice that airfares are lower as well as hotel and resort rates.

3. Buy at factory outlets like Orlando Premium Outlets that sell Disney merchandise at low prices so that you won't have to buy at the theme park stores which is quite expensive.

4. Try to check what are available free things to do at Disney World like strolling around Disney's Boardwalk and Downtown Disney Area or hiking the Disney Wilderness Preserve.

5. Take the whole family to one of the all-you-can-eat buffet that are found just outside Disney like Sweet Tomatoes, Boston Lobster Feast, Golden Corral, Ponderosa, Sizzler or Angel's Lobster & Seafood Buffet.

6. Try to visit and check out online guides to Disney World like the Orlando Florida Guide for comprehensive information on finding the best deal on Disney World tickets, accommodations and packages.

7. If you prefer to eat at the Disney World theme parks, try to make your big meal of the day when the prices are considerably lower.

8. Buy necesssities like sunscreen before you arrive at Disney World since the theme park sells expensive items.

9. Have your own personal water bottle so you can fill it up at any of the water fountains throughout the day and you don't have to buy bottled water.

10. Avoid Disney World during holiday weekend and Spring Break since prices are higher at these time of the year and it is also crowded.

first, don't eat at the resort. Always leave and go to a close restaurant, that is how they always steal your money, and also keep the souvenirs to a minimum or don't get any at all. Disney is always over priced in the park, but you can most likely fine anything they sell at a Disney store or any store if you look hard enough.

I think vacation packages are the best option for affordable travel to Disney World. Disney World offers different types of vacation packages ranging from low to premium price. These packages wrap park tickets, hotel and dining into a bundle, and give you a discount on the whole deal.

The best way to save money when visiting the Disney Resorts is to use coupons. And your friend is lucky because I have found plenty of coupons and discounts like what you can find at these sites:
http://orlandocouponsfree.com/
http://www.retailmenot.com/view/disneyworld.disney.go.com
http://orlando.entertainment.com/discount/browse.shtml
http://www.orlandocheapster.com/
http://www.greatorlandodiscounts.com/
http://www.orlandofloridacoupons.com/
http://www.disneycoupons.com/
http://www.mousesavers.com/seaworldorlando.html
http://www.knowbeforeugo.com/

And here are the helpful tips on saving food from about.com:

* You can look for signs that say kids eat free when accompanied by parent.
* Know beforehand where you'd want to eat and save money when you combine fun with dining.
* Packing your backpack and pretend you are packing for an overnight camping trip. It always saves big to pack store bought snacks.
* Use available microwave and refrigerator for stocking up foods.
* Menu prices are less in lunch so it's better to eat late lunch than early dinner.
* Take the leftovers because you can snack them later. It saves money a lot.
* If the restaurant you want to dine in is too expensive then have a dessert rather than a full meal.
* Ask about purchasing the refillable mugs when you arrive because these can be refilled for free during your stay in your hotel.

And as I've told above, print coupons before you go. I also suggest that you read further at the source in order to get more details. Hope it helps.
