You're not being cheap at all, its expensive. I've always felt the "sticker shock" of Disney is more with food than with tickets or accommodations. I guess its because you deal with tickets and hotels ahead of time, but the meal costs hit you when you're there. It seems even the cost of a simple lunch (burger, fries and drink) has steadily and quickly increased from $8 to $10 to $12 to around $14 now.
What we've often done is stay offsite at a place with breakfast included, have a fairly large breakfast, then only a snack in the park for lunch, then sometimes eat at a Disney restaurant for dinner, or offsite. There's almost every kind of restaurant you can imagine somewhere within a mile or two of Disney's gates.
