In two weeks I'm headed to Florida and plan on going to a Disney Park. Is there anyone here know where to go for discounted tickets?

Have you checked with your employer? Many companies have associate discounts that include theme park tickets.
There are several places that offer "specials" on tickets once you get there but be very careful as you don't want to end up buying a fake ticket and loosing your money 
I just got back a couple weeks ago and had the best time and I hope you do too!

I go to Disney world every year for 10 days , and actually there are no discounted tickets. The advertised ones are all fake. Trust me for the past 15 years that I have been going I have never found a reliable discount . park prices are what they are and there is no getting around that fact.

They do offer discounted hotels, but not on Disney property, but nothing on park passes.

That’s a bummer. I was looking online and I believe it’s almost $80 for one day. I know here Cedar Point has an offer of $10 dollars off with a Pepsi can or some kind of marketing gimmick. At least I know now not to buy "discounted" tickets from a guy name Mark in the alley. My employeer usually offers dicounts to just about everything but Disney wasn't listed.

Disney never is. I think park passes are in the high 70 dollar range now. Do you have kids? What park are you going to? If no kids or older kids. I would srtongly say go to Animal Kingdom. It is so great. I try to spend at least 2 days there each trip. Tusker house has a great breakfast.

No Kids. I'm going with a group of friends and my buddy's wife wants to go to the main one. I went there 10 years ago, right when the Animal Kingdom was being built. I would love to check out that place but more than likely she will win. I think we are only doing one park and that it. Epcot was a fun place and wouldn't mind going back to that one. We are headed to Davenport for 5 days and there is a few other things we wouldn't mind checking out before we leave.

Do the aminal Kingdom. Volley some of it is good, but all parking in the world is free.
Anyway, for a group of adults the Aniaml kingdom is so great. Lots to do. Thrill rides, shows, safaris . its just wonderful. The think in the expo is pretty fun, but the magis your way is expensive and for one day you cant get it. It uis usually a 3 day or more length of stay pass. we get it for our 10 day stay, and they are so greedy even for 10 days they chaRGE us exactly what the park would cost if we went daily. Only option is we can park hop. Disney is great but greedy

Ya got me on that one. never heard of it in 15 years. Could be because we dont take a car, and only use Disney transportation.

I'm back from the trip and wished it wasn't over. I found discounted tickets to Disney. I ended up paying $50 for two days at any park and one day to their water park. You have to do some work and listen to a time share, but it was worth my hour and a half. If anyone would be interested, PM me and I will give the guy's name and number who hooked me up.
