It seems like this is coming a couple of months early this time around, but Disney is raising ticket prices yet again. Not surprised, but it's making trips to DL/WDW even more difficult...and the prospect of ever getting APs again smaller and smaller...

Well crud

I think you're right though, don't the increases normally come in August?

I always thought they raised them before the summer rather than after actually, just like they raise parking prices every year.
It makes sense for disneyland (and WDW) since resource prices keep going up and they sell enough tickets to actually close the gates on some days.

Yep, that's about how I feel...the never-ending hamster wheel of ticket prices...

Oh drat. Looks like I may have to raise a little bit more for my trip but I may have enough...but I can't be too sure.

It usually is just a matter of a few dollars, so maybe you just need to forgo a fancy coffee or two (if you buy those)

I'm not into coffee so that's a relief. Good thing i haven't recycled my soda cans, glass and plastic bottles just yet so that will help. I have so many of those.

Yeah, those add up! You only get 5 cents out in Cali though right? You should bring them to Michigan and collect the full 10 cents!

It means skipping lunch or two to make up for the costs...
...maybe skipping a few lunches for the kids too (but heck, they're still growing - would they miss a meal or two?)....

Maybe Ms. Swann can talk her Momma into buying her lunch, after all, her Momma takes her sister without elizabethswann!

...actually, I think it's only fair that she's due equivalent compensatory remuneration for that particular circumstance...

Or you could always just take your sister out of the picture... I have some pamphlets here if you're interested.
