Disney Discount: Restaurant.com

January 26th, 2012 · No Comments

At home, I’m a huge fan of getting discounted restaurant gift certificates at Restaurant.com. However, I always thought that there was no point in looking at them for Orlando, as I stay on-site at both Universal and Disney World. This led me to do my own poking around on there, and I found that Bice [...]

The New Job and the Disney Vacation…

January 13th, 2012 · 1 Comment

If you are looking at an awesome new job offer, can you still go on your magical vacation?
I’ve done it successfully three times. I bring it up during the negations once the offer is on the table. I just state the facts, and I flat out state that I am willing to take it unpaid.
