Editor: On a regular basis, the topic of Pin Codes comes up. Mysterious yet highly desirable little things, Pin Codes are like the Holy Grail of Disney discounts….everyone wants to know how to get them. 🙂 So I thought I would use today’s post to re-run an excellent explanation from our friend and former writer, Brenda who is the author of many wonderful articles for us. 🙂

My friend called me the other day and told me she had received a pin code in the mail for Disney World. She said she was not going to be able to use it for her family so she wanted to give it to me. I told her that, as sweet as the offer was and as much as I would love to have a pin code, only the person to which it is addressed can use it. So, I thought I would write a quick tip for you guys on exactly what a pin code is and why it is so valuable. Read more

Affordable Disney Vacations: Your Vacation Budget Puzzle

Nancy Affordable Disney Vacations, Disney Vacation Planning, Saving Money at Disney World , , , 0 Comment

I started off this Disney vacation budget mini-series last time by talking about making a budget right at the beginning, because I really think that it is easier to decide what you can spend first…and then plan a vacation to meet that budget. I always tell folks that there are 3 basic keys to making an affordable Disney vacation happen: planning, budgeting, and an open mind. With these three things guiding you, you can really take all the aspects of a Disney vacation and change each as needed until you have a vacation you can afford.

In fact, I like to think of it as putting the pieces of a puzzle together to create a beautiful picture. In this case that picture is your dream of a Disney vacation only with this puzzle there is no right way to put those pieces together! The only right way is the one that makes your dream a reality! Saving money on a Disney vacation is about choices and in some instances, trade-offs: if you want or need to spend more in one area, then work to reduce costs in another. Read more
