10 Tips to Save Money on Family Theme Park Vacations
Getting ready for an upcoming exciting theme park vacation for the whole family? It can be even more fun if you can save money before and during your excursion!
Visit in between Seasons: Early spring and late fall are often times to score great family deals!
Social Media: Follow your favorite parks on social media so you don’t miss out on offers and deals.
Smaller Theme Parks: Smaller parks can often run $50 per person per day ($100 for large parks) and can be really fun and with smaller waiting lines for going on rides.
Look for Package Deals: Multi-day deals will always decrease your cost per person per day.
Special Brand Discounts: Look for online and store discounts from AAA, the Military, Unions, and Seniors. Avoid buying tickets on Craigslist and eBay as they are too big of a counterfeit risk.
Book a room with a kitchen: There’s no need to eat 3 meals out every day! It’s much easier and healthier to eat 1 or 2 meals in per day.
Bring water and snacks into the park: You can buy a $5 case of water for the price they will charge for 1 bottle.
Consider buying souvenirs in town: You pay a premium every time inside the park for impulse purchases. Try going to the town stores, Target, supermarket etc and the identical goods are often available for half price.
