Plus, it applies to the FW Cabins.
Rusty,
If you look at my signature in the early 2000's, we did the cabins. Loved them, got the bug for the Fort, and bought a popup and here I still am. I'd like to do a few nights in a Deluxe but even at a 50% discount, I wince at some of those prices.
DW has mentioned GF (she has champagne tastes and I have a beer budget) and has no interest in any others except Wilderness Lodge which is perhaps the most affordable Deluxe. I really like the look of Port Orleans Riverside and the Moderates are more appealing at 50% off. Maybe I will do a split stay - some nights at one, some at another.
Neither one of us has an interest in the Epcot resorts or AKL.
And for those who want to know, besides the discount, DD earns 3 1-day parkhopper passes after working 150 hours (it's based on how many cumulative hours you've worked), another 3 ph passes at the 300 hour cumulative mark, and another 3 at the 600 hour mark. At 40 hours a week roughly, that's at the 4 month mark which is all she's working (mid-January to mid-May). But extra tickets can be bought by DD at a 10% discount supposedly.
Plus there is a CastMember only store called Cast Connections on property that supposedly sells merch and display/attractions stuff at heavily marked down prices. They are allowed to bring in a guest like myself.
And there is a back-room CastMember-only space behind CC run by Property Control that supposedly has the really GOOD stuff.
It's behind AK next to Western Way. On purpose it's very discreet but I think I ran by that warehouse on this past Disney Marathon.
If she works hard, doesn't get fired, etc. she could be extended to continue working through the summer as well and would have the opportunity to interview for a different position for the summer (doesn't have to keep doing Custodial). I've told her she can extend if she wants to and to squeeze as much fun and adventure out of this because once you get out of college and get a job, these kinds of chances become more scarce.

PS - so Rusty, does CC have some good stuff? How 'bout the back room?
