Here at DFB we love hearing from our readers! Both the good and the bad, but especially the messages that talk about the great Disney vacation you had or how our videos and posts helped you plan your vacation. You all are the reason we are here and we are so appreciative of each and every single one of you!

We pride ourselves in providing our readers with the most up-to-date, factual, and helpful information about the Disney Parks. We want to make sure you have the best vacation ever, and that also includes saving as much money as possible!

We are always keeping an eye out for new deals and discounts that could help our readers save money on their Disney World vacations. We share these as soon as we hear about them, and we always love hearing from our readers that they were able to save money because of them. 

We have gotten messages from lots of readers letting us know that they saved anywhere from a few hundred dollars to over two thousand dollars. We think that every dollar saved means a lot (and that also means more money for snacks!) We were able to help DFB reader Laurie save $2,000, and we want YOU to be able to save too!

DFB reader Laurie was able to save over $2,000 after she saw a post about hotel room deals at Disney World. There is usually at least one hotel room discount going on, and sometimes there are multiple. Usually they are only good for certain dates, but it never hurts to check. It is always good to check out our list of current deals and stay tuned to our blog posts for up-to-date information on hotel discounts. For example, you can currently take advantage of discounted hotel rooms at Disney World and free Park Hopper benefits on select dates beginning October 6th through December 25th. As well, you can save up to 30% off at Disney World hotels if you book a stay of 5 nights or more most nights from July 8th to October 3rd, 2024.

It is always a good idea to shop around and be aware of room discounts, as hotel rooms will take up a big chunk of your budget. You can also take advantage of deals on park tickets. Tickets can add up quickly, especially if you are going with a larger group. Just like hotel rooms, there is likely some sort of deal going on for tickets. Similarly, there are often date restrictions, but just like for hotel rooms, it never hurts to check! Currently, Florida residents can take advantage of Discover Disney Tickets. You can choose from 4-day tickets for $59 per day or 3-day park tickets for $73 per day. You can use these tickets any time between April 2nd and September 28th, 2024. As well, there is a 4-Park Magic Ticket deal that is discounted admission for 4 park tickets with one park per day.

Our money-saving tips don’t stop at hotel rooms and park tickets though! You know we love food here at DFB, and we also want to help you have the most bang for your buck when it comes to dining. We have pages of information about the Disney Dining plan (including information on how Disney Visa Cardmembers can get a free Disney Dining Plan). We have resources on how the Disney Dining Plan works, as well as posts about how to get the most value from your plan at quick service restaurants, table service restaurants, and while snacking.

Additionally, we are constantly reviewing all the food that Disney World has to offer. We have eaten EVERYWHERE, and we still revisit locations and try out all the new food. We want to make sure you have the most up-to-date information on the best food at Disney World, and we have so many resources to find the food that best suits your group. From our round-ups of the best Disney World restaurants to the snacks you need to try, we want to help you save money by not purchasing food that isn’t yummy. It’s indirectly saving money since you aren’t wasting it on bad food, but we think that is still saving!

Last but not least, we also have lots of resources to help you make the most of your time in the parks. The last thing we want is for you to feel like you didn’t get your money’s worth while you are in the parks. We are always sharing tips and tricks that we have learned after years of going to the parks. We know Disney vacations are not cheap and we want to make sure you are prepared. We have posts about how to make the most of rope drop, strategies for Genie+ (and lots of resources on the new Lightning Lane Multi Pass and Single Pass), the worst times to ride attractions, and so much more! 

Not only do we have LOTS of resources on our blogs, but we also have a collection of food guides that are a result of years and years of knowledge and tons of research. These guides will help you enjoy the best food, AND save money! Our BEST tip for sticking with your budget at Disney World will forever be to plan ahead – especially for dining! When you buy our DFB Guide to Dining at Walt Disney World, you’ll get immediate access to our downloadable worksheets for planning your trip, as well as sample one-day dining itineraries!

While we post LOTS of deals and discounts on our blog and guides, you can also check out our YouTube channel for EVEN MORE ways to save on your Disney vacation. We want you to have the best trip, while saving the most amount of money! Check out our video on new ways to save on your Disney World trip:
