Do you open your stockings on Christmas Eve or Christmas Day?
Mickey and Minnie stockings!
It’s fun how families have different traditions for handling stockings, but most can agree that opening them is a highlight of their Christmas.
Let’s be honest — there are LOTS of snacks in Disney World.
Magic Kingdom
Sometimes, all those snacks can get quite overwhelming, not to mention expensive! While there are some Disney snacks you can get for $1, the vast majority of them are more expensive and will take some budgeting and planning. If you’ve got your budget all secured and need to know how much you want to allocate for snacks, allow us to help with this guide to the best Disney World snacks for every budget!
Most people are aware of how expensive it can be to visit Disney World — but some of those expenses can (and SHOULD) be avoided.
What do YOU bring to the parks?
Whether you prefer a strict budget or are more open to making spontaneous financial decisions, there are definitely some pricey mistakes that you don’t want to make. But don’t stress! We’re here to tell you what we’d NEVER buy again, and hopefully, you’ll avoid making the same choices.
If you thought Disney World was expensive before, get ready. ?
Disney World
Price increases on tickets, food items, and more are not unusual at Disney World. Earlier in 2022, we saw HUNDREDS of price increases impact snacks and food items across Disney World restaurants. We’ve also seen sneaky ticket price increases put in place for 2022 and 2023. But October of 2022 brought with it even MORE increases on everything from photo sessions to Mickey’s Premium Ice Cream Bars. So how can you avoid having your budget severely impacted by price increases at the Most Magical Place on Earth? We’ve got some tips.
Let’s face it — Disney World is expensive.
Planning a vacation is no joke!
There ARE definitely ways to save money on your vacation, but if you want to do as much as possible in Disney World — from character meals to skipping the lines to staying in a resort near the parks — you’re gonna dish out some cash. However, we bet you’re wondering how a Disney World trip compares to other kinds of vacation. So, we’re here to tell you about some vacations that are actually CHEAPER than a trip to Disney World!
The holidays can be a MAGICAL time to visit Disney World.
Christmas is one of the best times of year!
Disney World holidays bring parties and events like Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party in Magic Kingdom, the Festival of the Holidays and the Candlelight Processional in EPCOT, plus all the beautiful holiday decorations. And Santa, of course! But holidays also bring CROWDS, which means planning your trip as far as you can in advance is an ideal plan.
We get it. Disney is EXPENSIVE! For some families, this is a once-in-a-lifetime trip that they put a lot of time and energy into saving up for. So what if we told you you could save anywhere from $500-$1,000 with this simple change?
$62 per person?? Too rich for my blood!
Besides accommodation and park tickets, the next most expensive part of any vacation is food. If you’re planning on eating out for every meal while visiting Disney World, that can add up quickly! A family of four could easily rack up charges adding up to over $1,000 just for a five day trip (and that’s only counting lunch and dinner!).
If you’ve taken a trip to the grocery store recently, you may have been met with quite the shock upon seeing the bill. “What on earth just cost me $100?!” ? is what you may have been thinking (and we don’t blame ya).
Everyday items are getting more expensive
Everyday items have become very expensive over the past several months due, in part, to inflation, though other factors have also impacted food supplies and prices. We’ve seen smaller crop numbers in Florida’s citrus industry lead to predictions of increasing orange juice costs, and supply chain issues impact everything from chicken tenders to cream cheese. But those painful grocery bills could get a little bit better soon.
Magic Kingdom is one of those Disney Parks where there’s almost TOO MUCH to do.
There are way too many ways to spend money in Magic Kingdom
Do you ride all the rides?? Eat? Shop? Check out the shows and parades? WHAT?! All we know is that there are places you WANT to spend your money — and other places you don’t. We’ve got all the deets on the best places to spend your hard-earned cash in Magic Kingdom!
Our handy (and portable!) ebook guides make sure you get the best deals and can plan a vacation of a lifetime.
