    I'm afraid it's the usual rule. We'd tell you. But we'd have to kill you.

    That could be a good idea, because if we are too scared to come out of our rooms then we will save money

    Money Saving Tip:

    Don't always shop for clothes at spots that look cheap on international drive. i spent more at those places than on disney for merchandise.

    Sometimes spltting meals between you is more expensive, so just watch out on what you order, if splitting it will cost more than your food, just pay for what you had.

    That devious plan sounds interesting..cant wait to see what you guys have signed up for.

    Shows how little i know about Magic Kingdom but i didn't know there's a Barbers. $17 for an adult cut which ain't bad, plus we may get a discount on top. This was something i was wondering as i had no idea where i would go to get a straight cut

    Yea i wondered about that.

    A great money saving tip is: don't eat anything unless necessary and do not buy anything you do not require.

    That's not a tip i can follow cause i spend spend spend when im in america, especially on disney merchandise.
     
  8. are you talking about the one in the park?
    there's also one in the tunnels which is cheap.

    I would love to say I'm gonna save money by not buying food at Disney, but I want to try it all!
    Specially the ice cream!

    My only tip would be, don't buy anything you don't need; if you want something real bad then wait until you're sure you won't need that money for something else. C:

    There is one at cast services backstage of Epcot that does a cut for $10...I'm yet to get my barnet trimmed but I think it's gonna need doing within the next couple of weeks.
     
  11. There's one backstage in MK as well which is around the same price.

    I believe we do get a discount on the barber shop on Main Street, but it is really hard to get a hair cut there because there's always guests there. I tried once, but left without one. I think I tried the one in the tunnels at MK as well, but I tried to walk in and so I was told I needed to have an appointment.

    My money saving tip which I use in everyday life: If you'll have chance to buy it later in the day, leave it til then. That way if you see something you prefer you won't have to miss out, and a good way of telling whether it was worth the money is whether you actually remember to buy it or if you totally forget! If you forget it obviously wasn't worth it! It worked with me the other day. There was this top I wasn't sure on, so I left it, and then I forgot to go back and now I look back it wasn't worth that much!!

    I have a feeling a lot of my pay is going to go on ice cream!

    if you're in disney as a guest (i.e. for like 2 weeks or less), should you really be taking time out for a haircut? i know i wouldn't!

    haha i doubt it, i get my haircut before i go on holiday, hehe.

    or even if i haven't, i am usually of the view i'm on holiday where nobody knows me, in a hot climate where my hair's never going to look good, and i'm in a place where there is loads of stuff i want to do rather than stuff i usually put off
