We've decided to buy a AP this year

we usually go for a week in March

during the week of St Pattys day. This year we're going
every month that thre are five work weeks ,June, Sept., Dec . We go for three days at a time. I think that should be enough come out ahead in the long run. We live in Southern Utah and its about a 9hr drive. I've been going since I was a baby and used to be a cast member in 1981-1982 . There are five of us now and its a little pricey, but we love it !

I think I might just have achieved pass Nirvana this year: I got the deluxe pass they offered at Costco with the $50 gift card, and then my pass expired the day after my birthday. I showed up on my birthday, got the Deluxe pass, used the $50 for the parking, and then got a $69 "birthday fun card" on top of that - the ticket agent just gave me a rather bemused look, and asked me if I was sure I didn't just want to get the Premium pass (which I considered, but I don't think is worth it, since I never go on Saturdays).

First I'd like to say welcome back to the boards, haven't seen you in a while, hope you have been having fun.
As for the strange look, I kind of have to do that too. With the Premium Pass you get better discounts....at all the restaurants and on Merch, plus you get free parking. If you were to go more than 3 days in a year your parking alone would almost pay for it. But hey to each there own.

I have the super mega deluxe premium-whichever-has-no-blackout-dates-pass. Former CM, first time pass holder. It was a birthday gift to myself, so I was stoked when they announced the free-admission-on-your-birthday promo. I'll definitely be applying that towards my renewal! I live in northern San Diego county, about an hour and fifteen minutes' drive, and I try to get out to DLR at least once every other month or so. I lost track of how many times I've been, but it's more than enough to justify the $380-something bucks, that's for sure!
