An article I found in February mentioned that WDW is considering adding a resort fee of $15. It also mentioned that they are thinking about changing the parking fees to the following:

Less than 30 minutes: Free

$5 an hour up to a max of $30 a day

Daily overnight self-parking will be $30 a day

Valet will be $50 a day

What's everyone's opinion on this???

With ticket prices the way they are, the parking fees should be left alone.

To some degree, I believe it is Disney (Bob Iger) is trying to squeeze more money from tourist.

I can't find it., But I recall somebody mentioned Resorts charging for Groceries ($5@ bag) delivered. Well Not true. Just Got back. Had 10 bags of groceries delivered from Garden Grocer to AK Jambo House. Brought up by bell services. No charge.

It came from this forum under "Discussions and Questions About Planning a Trip to WDW" and "Delivery Service". Here is the first post on the thread made by Missy.

"Everyone has their favorite delivery service for all those things you don't want to pack for your trip. There is Amazon Pantry, Green Grocer, and etc. Which is your favorite and what tips can you give on ordering. (I also understand that Disney adds a$5.00 handling fee per box and/or bag to deliver to your room.)"

I have seen people complain about the fee on other sites. I may be wrong, but I thought that was an agreement between Garden Grocer and WDW though where you are not charged for these packages. The individual complaining had shipped things through FedEx I believe and got charged.

With that, I have also seen people say it is hit or miss and get charged sometimes and not others. So who knows!
