Deposit into the Disney fund 4.6.11

in Our Disney Fund 2011

Once again another month has gone by since I made a deposit into the Disney fund (I hang my head in shame). But I have had a very busy month! Check out all the deposits I have to make:

$50 Walmart giftcard (belated Christmas present; will use to pay for sunscreen, snacks, etc)

$53.44 left on a gift card from our January 2011 trip

$6 in $2 bills that will be great for Mousekeeping tips

$15.33 in change

$24.02 from Sunshine Rewards

$200 Disney Giftcard for opening a Disney Visa in my husband’s name (I have absolutely no idea how we got this, but they sent us a total of 4 offers before we applied for Jason’s card. I also have one in my name.)

$33.23 – Lowered our cable bill and since it is now a lot lower than budget, we can deposit the difference into the Disney fund!

$348.79 deposited into the Disney Fund. $952.34 saved since June 1st, 2010. (Goal is $3,000.)

You can see all the previous deposits here.

Don’t forget that you can now showcase your own Disney funds via the Couponing to Disney message board! (See how to do it here.) You are more than welcome to link to your thread in the comments below!

You could use your Walmart gift card (plus another $50) to buy a $100 Disney gift card at Sam’s Club and get a bonus $10 gift card to the Disney store.

That is wonderful! I am always amazed how quickly a few dollars here and some change there adds up.

If there is a promotion for something better than what you got when you opened your Disney Visa, email Customer Service. I did this over the summer and got $50 Disney dollars.

We just “officially” opened our Disney Fund on Tues. Deposited $58.64 from our change jar. And I also transfered 267 points from our rarely used Disney Visa. (that has now changed. We are charging everything and paying it off…I mean EVERYTHING! I love that you can pay by phone for FREE) I have lowered a few monthly bills, but the biggest one to note is my cell/internet saving $50 a month!!! We are also following the No Dining Out plan! This should all add up quickly for us. We are planning a Jan 2012 trip

Question on the Disney Store gift cards you get from Sam’s….
Can you use them online and buy regular Disney gift cards with them?

Do you know what the expiration date is on the $200 Disney gift card that you got for signing up for Disney Visa? I have been getting the offer but was waiting since we won’t be taking another trip to Disney until later in 2012. Thanks!
