Ok I'm the first to admit I've been zoned out as to actual prices happening for a WDW vacation right now but since this is the budget board I need a little old fashioned budget themed vent right now..... this is going to be more in the style of the "old days" of the BB here- Back in "the day" we used to chat on here about budgets, going to Disney and making it more affordable.....
Pardon my ignorance but I just went and took a look at the price of a one day hopper ticket......(I haven't looked in about 3 years) $208 for ONE DAY??????? ONE DAY?????
Last time I stopped in for a quick day visit, I recall being somewhat horrified by the $100 price tag,but justifying it in my head was a LOT easier utilizing some discount methods etc for a FULL day of fun times. Now I can't do that anymore.... there is NOTHING in my life or budget that can justify that kind of a jump in prices.... our income is still completely livable and fine, (in the real world) but it has NOT kept up with such a precipitous rise as those ticket prices....
Sorry I just needed to vent for a minute. I know I was deeply saddened by the extra costs that are now a part of a day at the parks there (that much I paid attention to) and I KNOW that if I bought a multe day pass the price per day would drop (a little) but what.is.happening??? Now that I know clearly the cost of a random day ticket, then add the other new costs on to make that one day worth doing (got to get on those attractions) I'm doubly shocked and I just don't know how think about this anymore. It saddens me ,and it makes me all at once. Ok...rant over.
