Discount deals biggest seen in years in Orlando and other parks

Sandcastle Waterpark is offering a 2 for $100 season pass deal this year as well.

The deals for Disney are actually very good. In January I booked a 7 night stay (for March 20-37) at Pop Century Resort with park hopper for 4 adults for only $1900, with a bonus $200 Disney gift card. I found that to be a pretty good bargain, although if you are looking to book for Spring Break time right now I doubt it will be as cheap even with the "buy 4, get 3 free deal".

It's extended into merchandise as well. I'm at WDW now, and toys are 35% off, plush is 25% off. I've never seen them discount in-park merchandise like this. Never.

A lot of retail stores mark stuff WAY up, so when it's on sale, it appears that you are getting a deal.

I visited Kohl's on a weekly basis, waiting for my $64 sweat shirt to go on sale. I eventually bought it for $12, and I'm guessing that they still made a little bit of a profit. I still spent about 50$ each week I went.

I suspect that Disney is still making a killing on merchandise. People might even buy more because stuff is on sale.

Yeah, yeah, I know. But, normally they just jack up the price without ever discounting it---this is a first.

It's the little things that make me smile inside.

Sadly, The Rat has collected so much of my money over the past six years that I notice these things.

I didn't notice the discounts at the beginning of the month and if they were there, I didn't notice because I didn't know any better.

Still came home with too much crap either way. :)
