Please welcome guest poster Meg from the blog Mickey Prep! She specializes in how to save money for Disney and is here today to share a few of her favorite tips!
For the past few years, I have been paying for Walt Disney World vacations with reward points, and free gift cards. That’s right, I make money online doing surveys, and participating in reward sites to pay off my family’s Disney Vacations. Below I have listed out all the ways that I currently use to make FREE money and pay for Disney vacations.
Swagbucks: I love Swagbucks! You simply answer surveys, watch movie clips and previews, perform small tasks, and use their search bar to get points called Swagbucks. These points are worth a penny each, and it takes very little effort to make money. You can also refer friends and make 10% of their earned Swagbucks that way too! When you are ready to cash in your Swagbucks, they offer HUNDREDS of gift cards to trade in your points for. Anything from Restaurants, Amazon, Stores, and movie theaters. It is awesome!
Bing Rewards: Use Bing to search the Internet, and get points for it…so Easy! I always cash my points out for Amazon gift cards, but they offer other gift cards, such as Starbucks, and the Microsoft store.
Surveys On The Go: This survey app makes it easy to answer a quick survey on your phone, and earn cash for it. The surveys usually last about 1-3 minutes.
ReceiptPal and ReceiptHog apps: Both of these apps are such an easy way to earn free gift cards. Just go shopping like you normally do, then take a picture of your receipt. You can earn free gift cards for taking a picture of something you would normally throw away!
Dealspotr: This site requires a little work for your free gift cards. When you find a deal online, you simply post the deal to Dealspotr, and then earn points for it when people use that deal!
Inbox Dollars: This app and website is a lot like Swagbucks, you answer surveys, open emails, and use their search bar to get cash. Easy as pie!
These sites earn me about $50-$100 a month with minimal effort. I either cash out in Paypal, or Amazon cards. Amazon offers Starbucks, Rainforest Café, and Other gift cards for places to eat on Disney property, paying for Disney for free!

What’s your favorite way to make money to pay for Disney?


Sees “Easy ways to make money”….my broke college student’s heart goes, “GASP, DO THESE!”
Haha I did a lot of this sort of thing when I was in college!
That is so cool! What a great way to earn a little extra cash!
Yeah, every little bit helps!
I like swagbucks. For a while I did it every day and made about 25 dollars a month.
I’ve done Swagbucks for awhile too, it’s a good way to earn a little extra!
I’ve never heard of any of these, but I need to research them to see if any are right for me.
There are some on here I hadn’t heard of either, so I’m glad I had a guest poster to bring them to the attention of my readers!
I’m going to check these out. I like to do surveys. Sounds like these are simple ways to bring in a little extra cash.
I like doing surveys too – it’s always fun to share your thoughts, but especially to get paid for it!
This is awesome you’ve found so many places to make extra cash! I used to have a swagbucks account, but I stopped using it a while ago. I should definitely look into starting it back up again 🙂
I’m the same way with Swagbucks! I had it but haven’t used it in ages. I should bring it up again and see what I can do with it!
