We’ve all seen the Superbowl commercials from the 80s and 90s, where an interviewer asks a winning player, “what are you going to do now?” and the player, jumping for joy, shouts, “I’m going to Disneyland!” It cost about $20-$30 to visit the Happiest Place on Earth in those days. Disneyland ticket prices sure have changed. (The first people through the gates in 1955 paid just $1!) Today you’ll pay $72 for a one day/one park adult admission, unless you can find a bargain. Finding a Disneyland discount coupon is a rare occurrence, but it is possible to score low Disneyland ticket prices if you know where to look.
- First and most obviously, check the park’s own website regularly for special promotions. For example, you can often get cheap Disneyland tickets if you’re a Southern California resident. Also, during 2009 you can get in free on your birthday with ID. However, be aware of internet scams trying to take advantage of folks looking for good Disneyland package deals – as of this writing, a seller is auctioning off this free birthday admission offer for $3.99 on eBay. The fine print on the auction notes, “this is a free offer – I am not selling it and you are bidding on my time to get, list and send it.”
Here are some other places to get cheap Disneyland tickets:
- Check the website of the Anaheim/Orange County Visitor and Convention Bureau for Disneyland vacation packages and other Disneyland package deals, not to mention good prices and special offers on hotels near Disneyland, California Adventure, Downtown Disney, the Anaheim Convention Center and all four airports in the region. Keep your Disneyland map handy when you go too, as the Visitor and Convention Bureau occasionally offers printable coupons for restaurants within the park.
- MouseSavers.com has a regularly updated page of discount Disneyland packages, including deals on “Park Hopper” Disneyland tickets, which give you access to both California Adventure and the main park.
- Check RetailMeNot.com often for codes for Disneyland coupons – registered users post Disneyland discount coupon codes and also report back on the success rate of the codes. Even a 55% success rate is better than paying full price!
A word of caution for intrepid bargain hunters on the prowl for cheap Disneyland tickets and Disneyland vacation packages – using anonymous online classifieds sites to find your deals is a sure way to come face to face with one of many scams that plague those free internet classifieds. Scammers use anonymous email addresses to post great Disneyland package deals, or those too-good-to-be-true Disneyland ticket prices, then they disappear without a trace – with your money. Unfortunately you might not know if your bargain is true or a scam until it’s too late. You’re better off finding your discount Disneyland packages from a reputable source. Remember, if it seems too good to be true, it probably is.
So what are you going to do now? You’re going to be savvy and look for legitimate discount Disneyland packages! Then you’re going to Disneyland!
