Using Disney Gift Cards??

[2mickeys1minnie]

What is the difference between the disney dollars and the gift cards exactly?

With DIsney Dollars you get cash change back. They are actually little dollars with pictures of characters on them. They come in different denominations. GC are actually GC and they can be loaded with different amounts on them. You MAY be able to reload them also, Im not sure but I think I heard that. They are both taken most anywhere in WDW and at the Disneystore.

Disney Dollars do make great keepsakes too & are awesome for rewards pre-trip for kids. They really get them in the mood! But they are just like cash.

yep!! my daughter earns Disney Dollars for her chores...the toothfairy brings disney dollars...santa puts them in stockings.... Then I'm going to let her use them to buy SOME of those souveniors that I consider JUNK!!!

They are a great incentive! She's MUCh more motivated to earn disney dollars that real American currency...

So can you use DD when it is cash only since you get cash back?

Yes since it acts the same as cash and no card reader is needed.

Thanks! We have all these gift cards to use, now I am thinking maybe we should get a few more DD instead of more gc.
