Great information! I used Disney gift cards for my second trip because of you guys! Used the Target hack to get the gift cards and that was my payment for food! I didn’t realize you could combine gift cards. Good to know!
Yes! We it’s such a great way to pay for ESPECIALLY the larger things on a trip to get the biggest discount. We always pay for our resort with them, and dining plan if we are doing that.
Meijer sales on giftcards plus credit card rewards are my go to to save. They usually have 5 off your next purchase with every 50 gift card purchase upto 50 off several times a year which is a 10% savings, on top of buying them with cash back credit card😉
Omg your hair Kayla!!! LOVE 😍😍😍😍 I LIVE by Disney Gift Cards!! I save them up, ask for them for birthdays... etc etc... I'm such an easy person to shop for. This is a great vlog.... a lot of people dont realize how easy it is to use gift cards while at Disney! -Ali 🍷😍
You can definitely use Disney Giftcards as some places in Disney Springs! It has to be a shop or restaurant that is Disney owned, so you wouldn’t be able to use it at places like Vera Bradley or Tommy Bahama. Places like World of Disney and Disney’s Candy Cauldron definitely accept them! Unfortunately you cannot return Giftcards, but if you don’t use them up on your trip, you can always still use them on the shopDisney website or at any Disney store location near you. You can also always save it for a future trip! (Just make sure you check to see when they expire)
Kayla I love your hair! 😍 since they’ve cancelled the dining plans for our up coming trips we are going to take the $ from the DP that we would have spent and put it on a gift card. It will be interesting to compare what we would have spent on the dining plan to what we will actually spend. Always great info guys!
As long as it is an official Disney giftcard, you should be able to use it to buy tickets no problem! The biggest thing is that the website will not let you do a split payment if the giftcard does not cover the full cost, so depending on how much you have on your card, you may need to call and purchase tickets over the phone so that you can do a split payment (if needed)
Hello there! Great tips! I have a couple of questions, Can I have the gift card from walmart and pay for it in cash? Im not american, I i}will be there for holydays and I dont have a credit card or a red target card. And also I heard that now you can not buy tickets by cash, is that true? I will go to Disneyland California, your video is valid for that park too?
Hi! Great question! You cannot buy giftcards with another giftcard. You can purchase Disney giftcards from Walmart with cash, but not another giftcard. I’m not sure about purchasing park tickets with cash or not, but it’s a good idea to purchase them online in advance anyway since you have to make a park pass reservation. That goes for Disneyland too! (You can find more info about purchasing tickets and park pass reservations on the Disneyland website)
Yes! You can reload them at any Disney owned merchandise location. Or if you purchase another Disney giftcard, you can combine them together at disneygiftcard.com (each giftcard can have a max of $1000 on it)
Love the 💖 pink hair! I sometimes collect gift cards if they have cute designs on them. But once I have one that is loaded up it’s very easy to spend them! Lol
Thanks so much, Lauren! I’m so happy with how my hair turned out. Yeah, we’d definitely collect fun gift cards too if we could find them around here. 😂 Mark Alan wants to try to get the Galaxy’s Edge one!
Such great tips! I did what you shouldn't and made payments using the same gift card again and again without knowing the information you shared. So we currently have a aug trip paid that we are canceling hopefully just rescheduling because I know to cancel will be a nightmare now! Thanks for the Info
I’m sure so many do it that way! We did it for several trips like that. It works well, until you have to cancel, modify, or reschedule a trip....then it gets messy. It’s definitely an easy way to take a little stress out if something happens. Thanks so much for watching!
i have a 10 dollar disney gift card will you please buy it i am from india and i accidentally bought it and want to sell at discount i.e. at 8.5 usd please buy it.
Wow. Number 3 was super informative for me. I didnt know you could combine gift cards. Face palm at the amount of time I've spent making phone orders because you can only use so many gift cards at a time on shop disney 🤦🏼♀️
It’s life changing! It can be a little bit of work to combine, especially if you have a lot, but it makes it so much easier to purchase things with them! 😊
I get my discounted gift cards from BJs. I haven't been able to get the discounted gift cards from Costco (not on the website nor in the store) and I don't have a Sam's membership. I'll be using the gift cards for my kids for their souvenirs on the next trip. I was starting to stock up on the gift cards, but with our Sept trip in limbo at the moment, I don't want to spend that money just yet.
That’s a great point about the memberships for those stores, Amy! But that’s awesome that you are saving them for your kiddos. But we totally understand about your September trip. So much is different for the time being.
Emily Spengler We love getting them at Target! We use our Red Card to get 5% off, which in terms of a Disney vacation, can definitely add up! I hope that helps! 😊
If we have a package with transportation, resort and Disney tickets through the Disney website. Is there a maximum amount of gift cards we can pay with if we are doing the payment method?
Nope! You can pay completely in full with gift cards! You will want to make sure you combine as many of your gift cards together as you can BEFORE you call so that you only have a few to read off and you can do that at disneygiftcard.com You can only have a maximum of $1000 per gift card, so keep that in mind, but you can definitely pay your whole balance with them!
@@kaylaandmarkalan thank you sooo much! By any chance is there any tips and tricks for airline tickets? I just discovered your channel yesterday since my family is planning on traveling for our first Disney trip. Thank you in advance.
Of course! We are always happy to help! We always like to use hopper to track when there are deals. I’ve had a lot of people comment that it’s super glitchy so I would maybe recommend buying directly through your airline when it notifies you. I have a rundown of how to use the app here: th-cam.com/video/IjXOM2pRgFs/w-d-xo.html I have also heard that with some airlines, once you book your tickets, you can keep watching for deals and if the price drops you can rebook your flight with the cheaper price and receive a credit for the difference! Southwest is the only one I for sure know does this, but I’m sure that there are others! Also, welcome to the family!! ❤️
@@kaylaandmarkalan Battling Migraines but besides that all is great. Also wanted to let everyone know that if you stay at any Disney Resort for more than 2 days you can opt-out of Housekeeping and receive $10 gift card per day.
David Russo that’s a great question! I’m not totally sure, since it’s a subscription, but you might trying getting in touch with Disney. That would seriously be sweet if you can!
There a definitely a few good nuggets in there! We’ve kinda walked away from some of his principles that we don’t quite agree with, but there are some good foundations when it comes to budgeting!
They are good for a pretty long time! The biggest thing is to just make sure that you don’t loose the card that has money on it. You can always transfer balances to another giftcard on the Disney giftcard website.
I heard no mention of a medallion gift card I just wanted to know how to use that how would I go online with it where is the number that I would put on for it for them to accept payment
Absolutely! As long as the store is a Disney store or affiliated with Disney, it should work. We use the Target red card to get 5% off the price of the gift cards to save money, so it can also be a great way to pay for a Disney vacation!
@@kaylaandmarkalan ok how can i use it do i have to enter a pin code or it or i just hand it to him and they scan it im so confused it's my first time going to use it so yea
No worries! It should work just like any giftcard! They will either have you hand it to them or use it in the card reader similar to a debit or credit card.
As far as I know, I don’t believe you can. Since it’s a subscription service, they require a credit card to be on file. It never hurts to reach out to Disney and ask! :)
Sort of lol. You will have to purchase new gift cards and then go to disneygiftcard.com to combine them. You may be able to reload money on them at a Disney merchandise location, but you might want to talk to a Disney employee on that one. Hope that helps!
DO IT!!! We always pay for our resort and park tickets/AP with it. I’d say the only inconvenience with buying souvenirs/food with it is that you can’t just bring you magic band, but you can save money, or time...not both. 😂 5% really isn’t much, but when you’re talking about like $1000 for a resort, it adds up!
Target is so annoying. I have the debit, but they won’t let me buy more than $300 in gift cards. Now I have to go to BJ’s. There’s no way to get the 5% off without going through the debit system. When you call, they basically tell you that the more you use it, the more they allow. But I need to get my gift cards now not on targets timeline. grrrrrrrr
On the Disney+ website, you can give the gift of a year for a brand new subscription. I know that you can’t use a general Disney giftcard to pay for Disney+ since they are different things in their eyes.
I wouldn’t say giftcards are a scam….. I would just think if it as a way to pre buy your spending allowance for a Disney Trip or a way to gift it to someone else. It’s still money either way! Just in a different form. Thanks for watching!
I would like to say thank you for the tips and tricks of how to use a Disney gift card. I appreciate the information have a magical day to you both.
Thank you so much for watching!!
