chopchop 0 #1 March 4, 2005 Disney and I gotta tell you.. Mickey don't use no lube! Damn, that mouse gets ya! $60 to get in, $30 for a little lunch, overpriced gift shops, rides from the mid-70s.. They were even selling plastic bags they called ponchos to little old ladies for $7 apiece today... I think the Orkin man needs a bigger trap to catch the biggest rat of all. chopchop gotta go... Plaything needs a spanking.. Lotsa Pictures Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RkyMtnHigh 0 #3 March 4, 2005 Roy...they charge that much for everything because people are willing to pay it. Just like Vegas..wasn't built on winners. I was at Disney on a business trip a few years ago and if my company didn't pick up the day passes, I would've stayed in my room the entire time...but then again even THAT was expensive..even pool/cabana boy was expensive. _________________________________________ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
happythoughts 0 #4 March 4, 2005 Disneyland is a trap that catches people and is run by a rat. There is a Florida Residents discount that is an ok deal. 3 days in a hotel at DW, so you don't have to drive, just take the Disney buses. Also, you can go to Pleasure Island at night, drink, and ride the boat back with no problem. That said, I haven't been there in a while myself. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chopchop 0 #5 March 4, 2005 Yeah.. we got 10% off for being Florida residents.. I just figured if they were charging that much, they would have cool new stuff.. but it seemed like most of it, at least at the Magic Kingdom, was still from when they built the place.. and at Epcot, everything was sponsored... Test Track, brought to you by General Motors.. Space Mission, brough to you by HP, and Honey, I Shrunk the Audience, brought to you by Kodak, all of these along with 20 minute commercials for their sponsors.. they even had the 2005 GM cars all over the freakin place with their window stickers and a GM info booth.. the mouse is working it from both ends.. chopchop gotta go... Plaything needs a spanking.. Lotsa Pictures Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
marcandalysse 0 #6 March 4, 2005 Well, if you took the kids, it had to be done! But if you want some fun, try the rides at Adventure Island in Universal....not that it is any cheaper.... And if you really want to have fun, and really blow the big bucks....get some wind tunnel time!!! That will empty the pocket book and max out your credit cards!!!! Disney will look inexpensive after that!!! hope to see you this weekend at zhills Roy! marc "The reason angels can fly is that they take themselves so lightly." --GK Chesterton Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
