    I am having trouble in finding bands that are discounted w the resort stay. How do I go about buying those magic bands and applying it to my account. My upcoming trip is this later august.

    Hello Sharon! 

    Welcome to planDisney! Guests in the United States can take advantage of the discounted prices for MagicBands and I hope that everyone does! I love using MagicBands in the Parks as it makes things so much easier. 

    All you need to do to order the band is to head to the "My MagicBands and Cards." You should see your Disney Resort hotel reservation for your upcoming reservation and the people on that reservation. Click on the blue "Get Started" button which will bring you to a page showing all the guests in that room. You can now select a MagicBand for each guest or decline one. You can then check out and finalize your purchase. You will get an email confirmation and a notice again when the bands actually ship. When picking out bands for your trip know that every guest in your reservation must either pick a band or decline a band. You won't be able to check out until everyone makes that choice. Another thing to note is that sometimes the band designs change up but you could lose a band you love if you want. It's a bit of a gamble but my rule with all my Walt Disney World shopping is that if you love it you must buy it right away or it will never return. I have had this proven to me so many times. Make sure that you decide at least 11 days before you arrive so that it can arrive in time before you leave for your trip!

    I hope this helps and if you have any questions please feel free to let me know!

    Happy Planning!
