Sunscreen is the worst. It kills me if we ever forget it because places charge beyond what I consider highway robbery! Sounds like your wife got things straight 🙂

I didn’t used to be that way, but my wife has really turned me on to packing our own lunch/snacks, water, sunscreen, and whatever else. Now when I see those people standing in line for $10 hotdogs or $8 pops, I think “suckers.” 🙂

Exactly – and the $8 photos that they try and rope you into when you first walk in!

Very cool 🙂 Now, if you don’t have to mortgage the house to pay the high food prices you’ll be all set 🙂

Agree 100%. We usually bring our own water bottle and just refill them at the water fountains. Most of the stands at our theme park are REQUIRED to give you a cup of water if you ask for it. They don’t want guests passing out 🙂

We are the same way – we usually pack a cooler and get our hands stamped for the midday picnic in the parking lot.

Great post. I actually used to live in Orlando, FL and had all the annual passes. I got them all at a discount because I was a resident! It was awesome! I paid about $20 more than a single day ticket for an annual pass in most cases.
