Thrifty Thursday: Buyer Beware When it Comes to Disney World Tickets
As a travel professional, I am asked all the time about where to buy discounted Disney World tickets and I have to say that this is a question that always makes me cringe a bit because you know that saying about “you get what you pay for”? If there is one thing that you have to be SUPER careful about when it comes to saving money on your Disney vacation, it’s where you buy your tickets. On a regular basis I read about folks who got ripped off trying to save money buying Disney tickets somewhere…only to find out that the tickets they bought were worthless.

It’s sad, but unfortunately people just don’t know…and so they get taken advantage of.
I love talking about ways to save money on a Disney vacation, and I will gladly tell you where you can save money. There are ways to save money on Disney tickets…and there are also places you need to steer clear of. I’ve written about this in the past, but it’s SUCH an important topic, I’m going to revisit it again today. Read more
