Thrifty Thursday: Smarter Than Your Average Phone

There is pretty much nothing I hate more than getting that horrible text message notice that someone on my family plan has gone over our data plan. How does that even happen?! 

One thing I know for sure: I won’t be wasting my data in Disney World anymore! Disney World offers free wireless Internet access in all of its theme parks, all resort rooms and public spaces, and all feature pools and bus stops. 

And it’s super easy to access:

Just select the Disney Guest network, accept the terms of use and you’re in business. Easy peasey. 

Don’t expect super high speeds or anything super special. But it is wi-fi, and it is free. And it is a great way to keep your phone bill under control as you refresh the Lines App or access the Magical Meals e-book from your Dropbox account. 

Have you used the free Disney wi-fi? Let us know about your experience in the comments below.
