I've got 2 trips planned for this summer.
Trip #1
Solo
June 14-21, 2017
PODQ - 7 nights $1323 (booked as a bounce back with 25% off rack rate $1323)
Platinum Annual Pass (split cost by the 3 trips it was used for): $225.43 (Annual Pass renewed last Sept. for $676.28. Split by the 3 trips it's being used for).
Food / Misc.: $750
Flights: $149.50 down (Maine to Orlando), $5.60 Return paid with points (Orlando to Boston)
Bus: $29 (Boston to Maine)
Total: $2453.53
However, I paid $1700 with Disney Gift Cards bought with Target Gift Cards earned through Perk & Swagbucks. My Annual Pass was bought with Disney Gift Cards last summer that was also earned by doing Perk & Swagbucks.
$575 was used to purchase Disney Gift Cards Target to save 5% on this amount.
So taking this all into account, my
Grand Total out of pocket for my solo 7 day/night trip is:
$499.35
