Tips on saving $money$ on FOOD

[SulleyanBoo]

We are staying 3 nights and 4 days (IN 15 DAYS!:sohappy

Any tips on saving $$ at the world. I think we are going to bring a mini fridge to the hotel to keep drinks in and buy some snacks for the hotel.

I was thinking about doing the dining plan but im not sure how exspensive that is either.

Any advice would help! Thanks!

If you have a car go to Super Walmart (it's 3 miles away) and get fruit, water, and breakfast bowls (eggs and baccon... microwaves cheaply) Bring a bottle of water to the park. I HATE the taste of water there, so I bring a box of Chrystal light lemonade to shake in the bottle each time I need to refil that day. If you are flying, those pack nicely. I go through about 3 ten packs for my family.
You can get one Nacho dinner in Mexico and it will comfortably fill two people. In England get the fish and chips at the booth... that's also cheap. Get a box of popcorn and put it in your luggage, it will microwave easily and will be a late afternoon snack. If you can, either bring granola bars or pack them too. You can even ship to your hotel the food. I know they have food delivery, but that's expensive.
Alway eat your biggest meal... the one you WANT to eat for lunch. It's MUCH cheaper.
If you have a car, there is a golden coral about 3 miles away and it has an all you can eat menue for 8 something. Fill up there and get a light supper.

I think you have to pay extra for a mini fridge..don't quote me but im pretty sure you do :shrug:

Disney updated this recently to be more competetive with other hotels. They also are trying to update free WiFi because most hotels offer this. I've also heard that they want to put in extra bedding in the rooms (soon) because these are the things people have wanted in their surveys.
