We paid $10 for $225 of gift cards!

Here we go! We booked our next Disney trip, it costs $200 to make a reservation. Currently they're offering up to 25% the resort fee for stays in the spring and summer that we're taking advantage of.

So how did we only pay $10?

Well you can see from the photo you can buy Disney gift cards at a discount at BJ's (also at Sam's Club but not as good of a deal).

*tip: save the gift cards after you've used them and write on them what day you used them. If you have to cancel, the money will return to these cards!*

- The biggest chunk came from a cash back credit card. I opted to get the Amazon Prime card at the end of December and earned $60 back by using it for my Amazon purchases, gas and groceries (and paying it right off of course). That's $30/mo in cash back!

- I got $50 from Inbox Dollars, find out more about it here.

- $40 came from Upside, you can learn about it here.

- $25 came from Fetch, see what that is here. They did not offer actual cash so I got a Walmart card to use for groceries and pulled the $25 from our grocery budget!

- I have an infant, she uses a lot of diapers, I input all the codes of all the diapers we have and a few from some friends to cash in on a $25 Disney gift card!

- Lastly I sold one of the cute little Disney Princess themed outfits that the baby wore to our last trip for $9.

This brings our total of "free money" to $184, I paid $194 for the Disney gift cards, hence - $10 for $225 in Disney Gift cards!
