The Bottom Line – How Those Tips Save You At Least $200 in Disney World

In my prior post I promised you that I would tell you some numbers of how those tips are going to save you money while you are in Disney World.

Here are some final numbers for breakfast, lunch, and water alone:

Price for eating without suggestions, starting at the low end of the spectrum:

Breakfast for two adults (assuming kids eat free) – $20

Lunch for 4, at the low end of the scale (about $6 a person) -$24

Bottled water – $1.87 (at least)x 4 = $7.48 (assuming water bottles filled at fountains)

Total for breakfast, lunch, and water per day: $51.48

Total for breakfast, lunch, and water per week: $360.36

Price for eating with suggestions:

Breakfast for family in hotel: Free

Lunch for 4 of sandwiches(ham and cheese and peanut butter and jelly) $40, including bread.  This is for the whole week, may be less depending on how much is put in a sandwich.

Bottled water:  24 pack – $20-$24 for two packs.

Cooler:  $10-$20, depending on where purchased.

Locker Rental – Large $14/day with key deposit.

Total for breakfast, lunch and water per day: $23.14

Total for breakfast, lunch and water per week, including cooler and locker: $161

These prices are approximate.  They may be more or less depending on where you buy your food and water, but they are pretty close.  Look at those prices! You have just saved almost $200 just on food and water.  That can make a big difference when you are trying to save money.

As for souvenirs, I don’t have some exact figures but the prices in the parks are always more expensive than in a store, because you are paying for convenience. If you are willing to go and check out the outlets, you will find that your time is well spent. You will get the same merchandise that is available in the parks for a lower price.
