DVC MNSSHP Deal

[Best Aunt]

I posted this on the Halloween party thread, but I am re-posting it here in case people didn't see it there.

WDWMagic.com posted prices, including discounts. But their pricing does not include the 6.5% tax.
Mousesavers.com posted Advance Sale prices and AP/DVC Advance Sale prices including tax.
I combined the two.
I did not bother to do the math to show the prices with tax for same day sale.

Seems like the parties are starting earlier and costing more every year. I was kind of hoping that there wasn't going to be any before we left (Aug 28) so I wouldn't have to decide if I wanted to go or not. Last year in Aug we got rained on which is pretty normal for Aug, but I hate spending all that money and having a strong chance of getting rained on.

Anyone think those early Aug parties will sell out. I would be more tempted to go the day of the party once I found out the weather forecast.

If they do, it won't be until a few days before. You'll have a pretty good weather forecast in hand before you need to decide. I'd still buy at least a day ahead to take advantage of the discount.

I went the Thursday of Labor Day week last September, and I bought a DVC discounted ticket at 7:30 PM that night I was kind of disappointed that they moved it to Friday night this year. I think that will attract more locals, so I will probably go to the party on Labor Day instead.

how far "advance" is the advance sale?

 

[DaveNan]

I believe advance sale is defined as at least one day in advance.
