With the cost of visiting Walt Disney World going higher and higher all the time, families are always looking for a way to save a few dollars on their next visit. One of the easiest ways to save money is to stay on Disney property without actually staying in a Disney resort. There are seven Disney Springs area resorts and I have been fortunate to stay in each of them. All of these resorts are considered official "good neighbor" Disney resorts. The location is ideal since they are all a short walk to Disney Springs where you can eat, shop and enjoy entertainment. The Disney Springs area resorts also allow you to take advantage of extra magic hours, free shuttles to the parks and FastPass+ booking at 60 days. Staying at the Holiday Inn Orlando at Disney Springs gives you some of the same great advantages of staying at a Disney resort. With the new Toy Story Land opening at Disney's Hollywood Studios on June 30th, guests staying at the Holiday Inn will be able to enjoy … [Read More] about 6 Great Reasons to Stay at Holiday Inn Orlando at Disney Springs

WDW’s Rider Switch Going Digital and Changing Some of the Rules
Rider Switch is a great system used at Disney Parks so that people do not have to miss out on attractions when a member of their party can't ride. But - just like most Disney systems, people have figured out a way to cheat the system causing the system to change. It is my understanding that over time many have used the Rider Switch system to get a higher number of FastPasses to use throughout the day. I'm not really sure of how they accomplished it. I'm assuming it goes something like this - … [Read More...] about WDW’s Rider Switch Going Digital and Changing Some of the Rules

At-Home Teeth Whitening: Does It Work? The Smile Brilliant Teeth Whitening System
I was provided with a Smile Brilliant teeth whitening system for the purposes of this review. All opinions are my own. I was skeptical at first but thought I would give it a try. Over the years I have spent lots of money on teeth whitening since I drink massive amounts of coffee with some wine thrown in and from years of smoking. Nothing really seemed to work as good as it advertised. I can’t begin to tell you the amount of money I have spent on those whitening strips (which really don’t work … [Read More...] about At-Home Teeth Whitening: Does It Work?
