Pin to Pinterest

Have you ever bought a movie on a device that you realized later you would rather have as a DVD instead? Or the opposite, you know you can pop it in the DVD player but you wish you could simply pull it up on your tablet or other device while out and about or on a road trip? Now you can! Disney Movies Anywhere is a fantastic new cloud-based service that will pull all of your existing content as well as any new things you purchase, and make them available anywhere!

If you love Disney like we do, this is huge news! Now, when you buy a Disney title you will have access to it across all platforms. Want to see your movie on your tablet? No problem. Want to watch from your cell? Your computer? Your DVD player? All are now available when you buy a DVD or digital copy.

This applies to Disney as well as Pixar, Marvel and so on. All you need to do is get things set up and then breeze your way to all your favorites in no time flat from all of your favorite devices. You will also need to download a free app to watch.

To get started, access Disney Movies Anywhere on your computer (PC or Mac) through DisneyMoviesAnywhere.com. From there, you will sign up and connect to all of your accounts like iTunes, etc. This will sync up completely and pull over what you have already bought. As you buy new titles, you will receive redeemable codes to enter and add to the account. These Magical Codes are pieces of paper inside the DVD box, look on the outside of the DVD book and see if includes a “Digital Copy.”  You can use digital purchases, DVDs or any other movie purchases for this program. Additionally, over time, you will even earn rewards for the digital content that you buy too. You can also use your rewards to gift cards, disney souveniers, etc.

When getting started, look for eligible movies that are clearly marked as Disney Movies Anywhere available. Simply go the website and enter the magic code to add your titles there. Inside your account, you will see a list of library of movies and a layout that feels very similar to Netflix, which is makes it familiar and easy to navigate. In your account you can create a collection or mark favorites. You can also do a search by title, keyword, or browse based on genre (like comedy, action, princess).  You can learn more about this program at www.disneymoviesanywhere.com/support.

Watch When You Want. Where You Want.

The advantages here are obvious but they stretch to so many areas of our lives. Having your kid’s favorite movie at your fingertips when they are cranky in a public place is a lifesaver, right? Now you will buy something one time and no longer have to worry about replacement copies. There are so many advantages to this that you will realize over time. The best part is, it is free!

Everyone loves Disney Movies and now we can enjoy them all the time without a ton of hassle with multiple copies. What better way to build a library and watch your favorite movies for years to come?

 5 Ways to Save at Chuck E. Cheese

Pin to Pinterest

It’s the place your kiddos ask about when they think about having a fun day! If you pass by it, it will most certainly get a ‘Can we go there?!’ Chuck E Cheese has long been one of the most entertaining places to take your children, but it can really rack up a huge bill. Although the experience tends to be worth the money, that doesn’t mean that we can’t take some steps to save a bit of cash. Every little bit helps, right? We’ve put together some great tips to check out before your next adventure to Chuck E. Cheese so it doesn’t just become a place to go only for a birthday party or a once in a blue moon visit.

Here are five awesome ways to save cash when you visit Chuck E Cheese:

Use Coupons

Coupons are readily available for Chuck E Cheese restaurants and you can really rack up the savings. The key is to look around for them in advance and find the ones that save you the most. (Generally you can’t stack them and use more than one at a time) The best places to find Chuck E Cheese coupons are newspapers, cereal boxes, kids stores, magazines and their website. You can visit there regularly to see what is available.

Buy Discounted Gift Cards

If you are willing to spend a bit of cash for a gift card, you can save a ton of cash through their discount program. Many people buy large dollar increments so that they get the maximum amounts and this works well if you visit often enough. This is especially well for a child’s birthday party. This bill could be in the 100s but the ability to save up to 20% off by buying a discounted gift card can take your money a lot futhur. One website I use to buy discounted gift cards is Raise.com.

Eat Before You Go

Although this might sound counterproductive, the truth is the food is optional at Chuck E Cheese. It is certainly not the most exciting part of the visit for the kids. Eat a little something before you come and you will save a ton of cash right off the bat.

Take Advantage of Free Refills and Share

If you are going to eat, while you certainly shouldn’t share drinks, it is perfectly fine to share food. One order is often enough for a few kids and you can buy each one a soda to get refills throughout the time they are there. There is certainly no need to buy large amounts of food when the kids are going to be focused on the games and so on anyway.

Visit the Website and Get on the Mailer List

As mentioned above, the website is a wonderful way to save cash. One of the best ways is to get on their mailing list. This way you will be getting notifications from them when they do something special. Chuck E Cheese always has something going on and this is a way to find out without having to think about visiting all the time.

Chuck E Cheese is a great place for kids to come and have a good time, but it can certainly be expensive if we don’t pay close attention. These steps should help you to stave off the costs and keep it affordable when you decide to visit.
