How to save $$$$ with your Disney vacation


TRAVEL TIP: Every once in awhile, I run into an idea that is too good not to share. If you are planning a Disney cruise or vacation I wanted to share how you can save at least 5%!

Sam's Club offers packs of gift cards for a discount. For a $150 pack you can purchase it for $142.98. That is a savings of $7.02 on every $150. 

OR...Target has gift cards available online or at the store. But you need to use your REDCARD to get the 5% savings. 

On our upcoming cruise vacation I was able to say approximately $224.

BUT...let's say you want to save additional money?? Well, you need to look at your credit cards to figure out which would be the best to use for the purchase of the gift cards. I chose a card that offers 1% cash back (and it goes without saving that you need to have the money in the bank to pay off your statement when the bill comes:). That is another $47 that you can earn back.

Then you use the gift cards to pay for your vacation. In my case, I used Costco to book travel (there is an additional cost savings there). Costco will accept these gift cards as payment (they call Disney and process them with you on the line).

PS. You can convert your cards into a single card of $1,000. You just visit www.disneygiftcard.com to accomplish this!

Every little bit helps when planning a vacation! Hope you enjoy this Thursday Travel Tip!!!!
