What activity at WDW is so over priced that you won't do it?

Either can't go or just catch a movie at Disney Spring or go mini golfing or something. I dunno. Be creative! o-o

True, I was just assuming this thread meant when you go there on vacation, what is something you don't do because of price, just was a little surprising to think of going there but not going to at least one of the parks. But as long as people have a good time, that's what matters in the end and everyone does things differently.

Staying at Deluxe and deluxe villas. We are in the parks upwards of 14 hours a day. We generally stay at a moderate that sleeps 5 depending on the deals offered.

A few years back, my friends and I took my housemate's nephew to WDW using his dad's DVC plan, since his dad couldn't go. The kid had gone a few times with his parents but it'd been awhile. As we were discussing plans with him, he kept asking about the hotel pool and seemed confused when we talked about the parks. It finally came out that when he went with his dad, they'd typically sleep until noon or 1pm, get up, go to the hotel pool, and laze around there all afternoon, then maybe go to Magic Kingdom once or twice to ride a few rides during the week during Extra Magic Hours at night. But most of their trip involved sitting in the pool or sleeping. He was totally baffled at the idea of getting up before 9am and actually going to the parks. Visiting Epcot, MGM, and Animal Kingdom was totally new to him, and he had a blast.

Almost anything "extra" at the parks, like the after hours parties. During F&W, we eat at all the booths, but some of those special events are crazy expensive. We do one culinary demo ($15) and that's all extra. And even those-I remember when those were free, so I have trouble paying for them. After admission and food, almost anything else is unneccessary unless it's free.
