When you’re traveling to Disney World, you’re very likely planning months, maybe even years, in advance.
A lot of this could be saving up for your trip — not just for staying on property or for the park tickets, but also saving for souvenirs, dining reservations, and of course, the plane tickets to get there (or gas to drive)! If you’re planning your Disney World trip and you’re a Costco member, these are some deals you need to know about — gift card deals, that is!
First off, you can get a discount on Disney gift cards at Costco! They do come and go off Costco’s web site and the prices change from time to time, but you can usually get at least 5% more for your money by buying a Disney gift card through Costco!
Costco members can often save on packs of gift cards, and some of these can really come in handy when you’re planning for your trip! For example, if you’re flying Southwest, grab a $500 Southwest Gift Card for just $449.99!
That’s a $50 (10%) savings, and you can redeem up to 5 of them, so it’s a great way to save money on flights! Combine this with one of Southwest’s frequent airfare sales, and you’ve really got a great deal going.
If you plan to dine at some table-service restaurants while you’re in Disney World, specifically Rainforest Cafe (located just outside Disney’s Animal Kingdom and in Disney Springs), T-Rex Cafe at Disney Springs, or Yak and Yeti Restaurant in Animal Kingdom, you’ll want to grab a two-pack of Landry’s Gift Cards that total $100 for only $79.99!
All of these restaurants are owned by Landry’s so you can use these gift cards while you’re in the park! It’s a great way to have a nice meal (especially over at Yak and Yeti, which we recommend over Rainforest Cafe and T-Rex), and save some money while you’re at it.
Now, as a reminder, Costco can pull these deals whenever they want, so while they’re available at the time of writing this post, things can change fast! We encourage checking out Costco’s website to see what gift card deals they currently have available and seeing if any will be beneficial to your trip. And don’t forget that going in person may mean you see gift cards that aren’t available online.
