Free Dining at WDW (aka how to get free food at Disney World!)

Monday, June 18th, 2007

Ok everyone, the free dining promotion is still available for select dates in September 2007! You must, I repeat, MUST take advantage of this deal if you are planning a trip to the World any time soon. It is a fabulous deal. My husband and I will be staying at All Star Music (our favorite WDW resort believe it or not) for 10 delicious nights. For every night of your stay, each person in your party gets a free table service meal (including drink, appetizer, entree, and dessert), a free counter service meal (drink, entree, dessert), and a free snack! FOR FREE!!!!!!! Run, do not walk, to www.waltdisneyworld.com and book this fantastic deal now before it’s too late (June 24, 2007 is the last day you can book this deal).

Ride Photo Tip

Wednesday, October 18th, 2006

My husband and I love to ham it up for the ride photos! We know where each and every ride photo camera is and we make a game out of doing something silly whenever possible. Hey, we’re easily entertained :) Anyway, since there are only so many times you can buy the Rock N Roller Coaster ride photo (or Dinosaur or Everest…you get the point), what we do now is just whip our handy dandy digital camera after the ride and take our own picture of the ride photos! Not the best quality ever, but it’s good enough for the photo album! Here are some examples of our ride photos from our last trip:

Monorail/TTC Tip

Tuesday, October 17th, 2006

OK, here’s the scenario: it’s been a long day at the Magic Kingdom, the fireworks just ended, the park is closing, and the Mass Exodus has begun. You’ve gotta get to the TTC somehow, but the monorail line for the TTC Express is longer than the line for Space Mountain was at lunchtime! Here’s what you do: take the resort loop monorail. Its line is usually much shorter at these times and it also stops at the TTC. Disaster averted!

Magical Wishes Button for Honeymooners

Tuesday, August 15th, 2006

If you’ll be spending your honeymoon (or even your anniversary) at Walt Disney World, be sure to stop at Guest Services (at any of the four parks) and ask for a free “Magical Wishes” button at the beginning of your stay. Here is what the button looks like:

Definitely wear the button for the duration of your stay and you’ll receive countless well-wishes from WDW Cast Members, as well as other vacationers! You might even get a few freebies here and there, such as a free dessert, free stickers, and lots of other special goodies!
