Walt Disney World: It's Not Just for Kids

When I saw Disney World Cash Hacks: 49 Hidden Tricks for Saving Tons of Cash at Disney World was available free for the Kindle on Couponing to Disney, I knew I needed to check it out.  To be honest, I was pretty cynical going in, as I feel like I’ve said and done most saving [...]

Welcome back to another session of Saturday Shopping, with great gifts for the adult Disney fan in your life. I start with the piece de resistance:  Dole Whip mix.  It won’t be Disney when you eat it at home, but how cool is it that you can just pop the mix in your ice cream [...]

The Fountain is a, well, soda fountain at the Dolphin Hotel.  After going to Fantasia Gardens, we needed to grab a cab back to AKL.  However, owing to our last-minute change of plans, we had not gone to Goofy’s Candy Co as planned.  We had skipped dessert at Whispering Canyon because of this plan, so [...]

Earlier this week, I got a wild streak and decided to check out rates on Kayak if I were to rent a car from the airport in Thursday night and return it somewhere on Saturday night.  (If you did not know already, the Swan, unlike the regular Disney World resorts, charges for parking).  It ended [...]
