Hello everyone. We're going to WDW the last week in November and I read these boards just about every day, sometimes more than once! I was wondering how often others read the boards. How soon before your trip do you start? Am I going to burn myself out doing this?

I'm on the boards every day. My DH is looking for a 12 step program for my addiction. LOL

I read the Boards everyday! We are going on our first trip in June and I've read the boards everyday since January. I am far from being burnt out.

Just hoping the time I spend on these boards don't lead to a divorce before our magical June trip :D

I read these boards at least once every day, I try more if possible. I have learned so much for my trip in November. Michelle

I read the boards everyday (sometimes up to 4 times a day)! I just know that I'm going to learn something new on every visit and our trip isn't until November! My husband would have the proof he needs to claim me as insane if he knew how much I'm reading the boards!

Well,

Pretty much everyday and the frequency keeps going up!

I just must get my daily fix!

That would be me. Twice a day if my DD3, DD10 and DS13 let me. DH also thinks I am insane.
Be back in a few hours. ;)

That would be me. Everyday and usually 2 to 3 times per day. I've learned quite a bit for our trip in November. I only wished I could have found the boards before I booked our trip through a travel agency. Fortunately I am a AAA member and was able to save 15 - 20% of the room.

I read these boards every day. I got back on last night after my computer being down for 11 days. If it hadn`t been repaired when it was I think I would have needed something to treat my withdrawal symptoms. I celebrated by being on DIS for 4 hours.

I am on here at least once a day. I always tell myself I'll take just a short look, but I always end up on for at least an hour! These boards are very dangerous!

Thanks Shelly for telling me about this site! :eek:

I read them daily (sometimes more than once a day...at work and home at night).. I started reading them after I came back from my 10/00 trip and am looking forward to my 10/01 trip. I don't think I could get burn-out!!

Since I found this board 3 weeks ago, I check it 3-4 times a day. I can't believe the little tips I have picked up . My dh(I'm catching on to the lingo) looks in our computer room as the first stop when he comes home. Yes, I've got a date in WDW in 86 days with a mouse!

You should hear how many times my hubbie asks me... "Honey, are you on that Disney website again???"


*Definitely a few times a day*

I have gotten so much free stuff/ or just fantastic hints and tips using these boards, I consider myself addicted, I am afraid I will miss something good!!

My husband always says - are you talking to your "friends" again? Well when I told him my "friends" let me know about the $49/nite @ All Stars, he changed his tune and now reads the boards with me. I'm always afraid I'll miss something if I don't check in!

I check the boards every morning, and when I have down time during the day which is normally before heading to the theatre. Of course when I get a down afternoon I'm on alot more. My Dh always gets an update on Disney news at night....

I am an addict. I read these boards every day at least once. I'm not much of a poster, but I sure do enjoy reading these boards!!!!!!!!

At least once a day, usually twice or more. Why is so addictive????? :eek:

03-30-2001, 03:08 PM
I'm hooked! I check several times a day since we are planning our first trip in 10 years for June! I can hardly wait and planning seems to help with the anticipation! Just made my first call for PS today and talked to someone so nice - I can't wait to get there!

61 days to go! :D

I am laughing so hard right now reading everyone's reply. You are all me!!! I am on this
site at least once a day and my husband is ready to leave me. He says "Are you on that THING again". But I'm so afraid I might miss something and I have learned so much! He'll just have to live with it until we go in November.

I'm with the rest of you, my DH also is getting tired of my addiction to this - I check it at least twice a day, sometimes more (I have to admit this is my fourth time on here today!) But our trip is only 8 days away and I want to get every last little tip I can before then - I have already learned soooo much that I did not know before finding these boards back in January and it sure has helped in my trip planning! I don't even know how I managed my last Disney trip in '96 without all the info I have now - I feel like I missed out on so much last time but thanks to all of you and these boards that won't happen again! :D

Kymack, we're also going the last week of November. I began reading these boards in January, and I don't think a day has gone by since I registered that I haven't read them.

I check them at least once a day. This is our first trip (43 days to go!) in 13 years so we're trying to utilize the tips from all the experts here. There's no doubt that our trip will be better because of these boards!

I actually bought a computer so I could check the boards before our trip last Sept...thought i should be visiting the grandkids when i was at their house instead of being on the Boards..Thanks all for so much info.......

On a normal day, once or twice a day. On weekends off: about 4-5 times a day. "Hi, I'm TSI_Fan, and I'm a DISaholic." :eek:

I must admit, I'm there with you all. It's very hard for me because I actually work at home on my computer (and get paid) so it's so tempting to just be lured here! Unfortunately, when I am DISing, I'm not making money!! I wish someone would pay me to do this!!!! :D

I'm on several times a day. It's a great way to keep myself in the "Save money for Disney World" mode. I just love sitting here checking these boards. It keeps me pyshc'd. Have a great Disney Day, I hope that didn't sound to cheesey?
