Read Tina’s success story of how she paid for her whole vacation using Swagbucks.
1. Disney Gift Cards – Use points (Swagbucks earned) and cash out for Paypal. Then use your Paypal account to buy gift cards on ShopDisney.
2. Eat For Free – Use Swagbucks earned and cash out for Rainforest Café or Starbucks eGiftcards. Enjoy a free meal, free coffee and more with your Swagbucks earned money!
Rainforest Café has 2 locations on Walt Disney World property, has a wild time eating with extraordinary rainforest theming. The Animal Kingdom location has an entrance outside the park gate, eat here without a park ticket! Also, enjoy the Disney Springs location featuring a large Volcano Outside. Have money left over after your meal? Use it in the gift shop.
Starbucks is another great option for coffee drinker or non-coffee drinkers. Besides coffee and lattes they sell breakfast sandwiches, bottled beverages and delicious snacks/desserts. Enjoy free breakfast on Swagbucks. Best of all, there is a Starbucks location in all 4 parks and 2 at Disney Springs.
3. Coupons – Print coupons from Swagbucks. Take the money you saved in printable coupons and add to your Disney Fund. If you are a regular coupon user, this little trick can add up. To print coupons, from the left column, go to Discover –> Grocery Coupons. Plus earn swagbucks for printing and redeeming.
4. Free Clothes – Cash out on Swagbucks for JCPenney or Hot Topic and buy clothing and accessories for your vacation. JCPenney have a Disney area, some better than others in store or shop online and save on children’s Disney clothes. Target and Walmart gift cards are also great options for this purpose. Plus, your first $25 cash out (with some exceptions) is discounted from 2500 points to just 2200 points.
Hot Topic sells accessories and Juniors/Women/Men’s Clothing.
5. Save on Flights – How are you getting to Disney World? For those flying with Southwest, cash out for Southwest gift cards and save on your out of pocket cost for this expense. You can use up to 4 forms of payment to purchase flights for Southwest. This means a limit of 3 gift cards and one credit/debit card as one scenario. Therefore, I recommend cashing out for higher value Southwest Gift Cards, since you are limited.

Target no longer allows you to buy other gift cards with their gift cards.
