$118 discount for family of 5

I was on the line booking (tentative) our trip with CAA this morning, and the savings compared to booking through Disney is only $118. I was really expecting there to be more of a deal, although $118 is $118, and I'm happy for a savings, but so little? I thought I had read on mousesavers that I may get a 15-20% discount? The plans are 2A, 2C (12,8,2) on Oct28-Nov4 at Pop with ddp and 8 day myw ticket with water park and no exp. She gave me a price of $3149, and from Disneys site its $3267. Just wondering if I should put down my deposit, or hope for something better?

I am wondering if it is because your 12 year old is an adult and not a child? (According to Disney). So if you are plugging in the numbers as 2 A and 3 Kids (though your post says 2A/2C) it is charing the 12 yr old as a child rather than as an adult for the DDP, etc.

Disregard my last post because I just went to disney's website and ran the trip with your details and I came up with the same quote ($3,267.22). I don't have kids so I never knew you had to type in the ages.

If you have a good agent and a general public discount is announced that can be used by canadians then you can switch your reservation to the new discount. If your agent isn't so great you might not have an easy time getting it switched. I'm sorry it's not so much. I wonder how much of it has to do with the exchange rate? (total shot in the dark)

The quote that she gave me was also in US funds, she said Disney only takes US funds?
