Answer 1 :
I'm not sure about tolls up north but there are not tolls down south.
Answer 2 :
I imagine you'll be taking I-95, so the only tolls you should hit are thru New Jersey - according to http://www.state.nj.us/turnpike/toll-rates.html, looks like about $9 each way. However, there are some tolls in Florida, especially around Orlando, and the expressway directly between Orlando and Miami (avoidable if you take I-95/I-4 instead, but does add significantly to the length of the trip.) If you're hitting the sights in/around Jacksonville, might either want to do so on the way south towards Miami or on the way back after Orlando...doing Miami-Jax-Orlando would add about 170 miles of backtracking between Jacksonville and Daytona. Foodwise, hard to say as it depends on where you plan to eat...however, if you're hitting the big theme parks, be aware that food/drink in the parks can get pretty pricey (not to mention long lines right at peak meal times)...you might be better off to pack a lunch and rent a locker to store it if money's tight
