Have you wanted to book a trip to Walt Disney World, but found that it would be too expensive, especially once you add in all of the food you’ll have to buy? If so, now is the time to book your trip. If you visit Walt Disney World between August 16th and October 3rd, 2009, stay on property, and get park tickets, everyone that stays in your room will get to eat for free!

When I say free food, I don’t mean that you’ll get to eat some tiny little meal. I mean you’ll get a LOT of food, and all for free. You’ll get a counter service meal, table service meal, and snack for each night that you are there. Trust me, this is a LOT of food.

You’ll have a lot of restaurants to choose from, and you will not go hungry!  This is also a great time to visit, as the weather is nice and warm, and once Labor Day hits, the kids go back to school, so it’s not as crowded as it can be the rest of the year.  If you think about how much money you spend on vacations for food, you’ll realize how much this can save you.

Looking to go on vacation later this year, but don’t want to spend a lot of money? Walt Disney World might sound like a really expensive vacation, but when you compare it to other vacations – especially when Disney has certain deals, it can be a very affordable trip. Free Disney Dining is one of these great deals that they’ve been doing for quite a few years now, and it’s great.

How do you get free dining? It’s simple. Stay at a resort on property (yes, value resorts are included as well), and buy at least a 1-park ticket per person. That’s it. Do that, and you’ll get FREE Disney Dining for yor entire trip. The Disney Dining plan regularly costs $39.99 per adult, per night, so you can see how much you can save! If you went away for a week, just the adults alone would save over $550, and even more once you include the savings in the kids food!

What do you get with the free Disney Dining Plan? You get a counter service meal, a table service meal, and a snack for each night you are there. You can use them however you like though, you don’t have to use one per day.

Let me tell you from experience, this is a LOT of food. If you bring your own breakfast (something quick and easy like bagels, poptarts, cereal, etc), you won’t have to spend any money on food while you’re on vacation.

Actually, except for souvineers (and tips for your table service meal), you won’t have to spend any money at all while on vacation! Talk about taking all of the stress out of a vacation. You can eat what you want, and not have to pay for it! Want the steak instead of the chicken nuggets, but it’s normally twice the price? No problem, it’s all included.

If you’ve been thinking of going to Walt Disney World, this can definitely be the best deal of the year if you enjoy your food!

Let me start with this: This is just a rumor. Disney has NOT announced this, and so what is said here might not actually be true. Now let me say that this has happened for at least the past 4 years, so the odds of this being true are very, very good. It is going around that this year’s Free Disney Dining will go from August 16th – October 3rd.

Here is where I posted about it last year, and where I posted about it two years ago, which is the last time we went.

I was especially excited about hearing the dates, since we went in 2005, 2007, and are planning on going again this September. I am VERY excited to start planning my trip! As soon as it is officially announced (which is supposed to happen at the end of March), I’ll write more about it, and how to have your entire trip for less. I just wanted to share the great rumor!!
