Does Disney accept large bills?

I have brought $100 bills to WDW several times and have never had any trouble having them accepted in the parks and resorts. If you had any concerns, you could go to the front desk of your hotel and periodically ask them to change your $100s into $20s. They should be able to do this for you with no problem at all.
