Top Tips for Saving Money at Disneyland
A trip to Disneyland is a dream come true. It’s the setting for stories and movies, and there’s literally adventure around every corner. It’s a child’s dream! Princess castles, magical train rides, and interactive pirate and Star Wars exhibits are available. Unfortunately, for many families, this vacation idea never gets beyond the planning stage. It is regarded as a very expensive and costly adventure that simply does not fit within the family budget. As a result, it is discarded along with several other future goals and aspirations. We’ve got a surprise for you! Following we have listed several ways to save a few dollars. Here are some tips for saving money at Disneyland:
Choose the best time to visit

Weekends are also always more expensive. Traveling during off-peak times may be difficult, but you can save an average of $400 per night.
Bring Reusable Water Bottles
Drinking water in the parks is one of the simplest ways to save money at Disneyland. Most restaurants provide free cups of water or ice. We also like to carry some bottles with us so that we can refill them at drinking fountains or filtered water stations. In the Disneyland app, search for “drinking fountains and bottle-filling stations.” Tap a location on the map to see if it has a bottle-filling station. Because Southern California has a dry climate, make sure everyone stays hydrated! If your children dislike the taste of water, bring in small packets of Gatorade or lemonade and ice. Ice enhances the flavour of warm water.

Get food delivered
As many hotel rooms feature mini-fridges and microwaves, which are perfect for stocking up on water, sodas, snacks, and even quick-heat and pre-made meals and alcohol, another option to save money on food is to have groceries delivered to the hotel. If your accommodation has a full-sized kitchen, consider preparing some meals “at home” or taking them into the park. Garden Grocer specializes on delivering to Disney World, while Amazon Prime only delivers to hotels.

Stick to a souvenir budget
The majority of the time, you cannot move more than 20 feet without getting enticed by the allure of trinkets. Resist the impulse to purchase a droid from Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge for $99 or a replica of the Enchanted Tiki Room Sign for $150. Spend your money on less costly, traditional park things that will maintain their worth (in nostalgic ways), such as a pair of Mickey Mouse ears with a name stitched on them (about $23) or, my personal favorite, a hand-cut silhouette from one of Main Street’s artisans ($10).
