Hello! And welcome to Very Amusing, your one-stop shop for the story, secrets, and

shenanigans of a popcorn-fueled theme park journalist.

I'm Carly Weiselle, and in case you couldn't tell from the very first thing that I said, I lost my voice? And I don't really know how I didn't go to a concert. I didn't do much of anything. It's not like I yapped that much over the past two days that I would have lost it. But alas, I woke up this morning and poof gone. Poof gone.

It was one of those rare days that I selected where it's the lowest price possible.

It was 104 bucks per person, which a few years ago we would be having a different conversation.

But in 2025 to buy three Disneyland tickets for $312 is pretty, pretty shocking.

That's kind of the win that I was hoping for, and I'm delighted about it.

I know there were like pin codes being sent, like secretly to certain people, like they had

gotten into a sorority or something where you get a special Disneyland discount that's only applicable to you. I did not get one. I actually don't know

anyone who's gotten one personally, but I'm so excited that there's like those rare, inexpensive
