want to buy some disney tickets. are there any cash back sites, where i could get these through?

Quidco- 365Tickets - 2% and AttractionTix 2%. I've not looked at prices though so might work out cheaper with other suppliers and no cashback. HTH

Discovery Cove is well worth the money. My son and myself went in September 2007 and I have to say, it was probably the best day of the holiday.

Ditto.

Me and the OH returned from a fortnight Florida at the weekend, and Discovery Cove was brilliant (we're both in our 30's).

We bought a 14 day Seaworld/Aquatica/Busch Gardens with Discovery Cove ticket for £165. :T

I have just taken a looksie at this item on fleabay and its a CD Rom book? Is that the one you meant?

This to me revelas two things...

1) the book aint that good otherwise it would be published properly in paper and
2) it aint no competition for the real books that we all love like Brits Guide to Orlando that I have mentioned a few times here and is cheaper.

Hey, maybe I should write a book

Seriously though I am sure this has some good tips in here but its nothing that you wont get from a proper guide book or from looking around da tinterweb and asking peeps on here or on DIBB or allears.net

But for a 20 bucks have a punt (then you can let us know and make some backups )

Cheers

Hi, yes this is the one.

As you say, just wondering if for $20 dollars might be the possibility of saving this and more and sharing the info between here, Dibb and PTS in recognition of all the helpful moneysaving advice I have received from these forums. You also receive updates for life - but this is the bit I find odd as apart from new customers (who like me are more than likely to share this info around) what incentive would the seller have to continue updating the site - unless like our members they enjoy it. There is also a 100% money back guarantee!!

Will post if I decide to go for it and let you all into her secrets, LOL.

Hi all,

Have looked back a couple of pages and couldn't see anyone already posting this. My OH received an e-mail from Disney stating that next year you will receive FREE admission to Disneyworld or Disneyland if you go on your birthday.

Even annual passholders can benefit as they will get a present to the value of a pass for already being a passholder.

See here for more info:

Sorry dcjd,

Obviously didn't go back far enough. Good news for AP holders though isn't it?

BTW, are you still there or are you back? Can never work out from the different times of day that you post!

No worries. Actually I think its a great marketing thing by Disney and sure helps AP holders and others too.

I am in the UK at the mo Back to Florida in less than a month though!!! yippee!!!

Hi Everyone,

I had booked with Travel City Direct a holiday for June next year (5 adults and 5 children) staying in a 5 bed villa in Orange Tree community (anyone know if this is nice area and how far from Universal Studios), 2 cars and flights but after XL going into receivership we booked with Virgin who helped us get our deposits paid towards our holiday with them which has already been done. (only took 1 and a 1/2 week!) Also this holiday has worked out cheaper with them anyway?!!

So there is always light at the end of the tunel, well for us there was.

Good luck to all those left trying to get their money back.

Hi there

Well thats great enws about TCD and Virgin, well done.

Orange Tree is just down the road from me and is a lovely community. Its about 4 miles north of the US27 and US192 junction known as "Four corners" as that is where four coutnys meet.

Lovely houses on there and has good facilities. You are also near Wal Mart and some good restaurants like a new Olive Garden and \Red Lobster about 7 miles north of you.

Head north adn you come to US 50 which is real downtown Clermont and along there are Outback and Steak and Shake and also a massive Target which is a much nicer Wal Mart type store.

You will have a Publix at either Summer Bay ior at Kings Ridge. Yo uwill be well cartered for.

As for Universial etc, you are a little way from there about 30 mins I say and you are about 15 mins from the Animial Kingdom which is your nearest Disney park.

Let me know if you need anything else on this

Cheers
