Saving money whilst travelling
Hotels.com is one of my favourite hotel booking websites. Not only do they have fantastic prices with a price match guarantee, you can earn yourself a free night for every 10 hotel nights you book – and they don’t even need to be simultaneous.
The FairFX currency card is the only card that we use when we visit Walt Disney World. By using the FairFX card you can lock in a fair rate by topping up the card when the rates are in your favour. The app allows you to remain in control of your spending or top up your card as you go, meaning that you don’t need to pay to convert your unwanted currency. The Mastercard is accepted pretty much anywhere, and you can get a free card (usually £9.95) by using the link on this page. Check out my FairFX currency card review.
Walt Disney World is my favourite place to visit, and every year they have a fantastic offer with free dining and a $200 gift card. I always go direct to Disney for the best prices!
Touring Plans is fantastic for anyone visiting not only Walt Disney World but also Disneyland, Universal and even on the Disney Cruise Line. Put together the best plan of action for your group and you will be able to save time and spend more time on the rides you love! Another fantastic free bonus is that you can get notifications of any dining reservation times that come available – perfect if you are looking for a particular dining reservation. Get 20% off with promo code UMBRELLA.
Managing my money
I use Confused.com to regularly compare all of our household bills and see if we can save money by switching suppliers or tariffs. The savings can be £100s every year just from taking a few minutes to make the switch.
