Thrifty Thursday: Affordable Snacks in Magic Kingdom

Whether you chose the dining plan for your trip or not, sometimes you need to spend a little money for an extra snack (or two, if you are like my family and have a hubs & a kid who are ALWAYS hungry!)  I like to look around each time I am in Walt Disney World and check prices and make a mental note of where to buy our snacks, because prices vary from place to place and I like to be smart about what we pay for.  There are reasonably priced snacks hidden all over, amongst all the “I-am-not-paying-that-much-for-that!” type snacks 🙂  To me, any “snack” that costs over $5 seems too expensive, and even paying $4.99 doesn’t seem great to me, but that’s how I figure out if we should get it or not.  If one of us wants a snack, I’ll say, “as long as it’s under $5 :)” Read more

Smart Snacking Around the Magic Kingdom

I absolutely love the Disney Dining Plan (DDP)! I find dining to be an attraction at Walt Disney World…can you tell I like to eat?

Before we begin, you are looking for items that are labeled with the DDP symbol. (shown here…)
