***disney Dollars Alert***

[Netty]

Hi :)
I have seen quite a few threads in the past asking where to buy disney dollars here in the Uk.
As people wanted them for birthdays/xmas etc
So I had an idea! :idea: -don't happen that often!!:rotfl2:

I am going to wdw in July, so if anyone who isn't going and would like me to pick up some disney dollars for them, i will gladly do so:thumbsup2
Just let me know on this thread!

(thanks ukdeb!)

That is a very kind offer :goodvibes

A few dollars would be an ideal thing to put in Molly's Christmas Stocking to give her a 'BIG CLUE' as to what we are doing and where we are going. :banana: :banana:

If you can please let me know nearer the time whether you'd like a cheque or Paypal payment.

Thanks

Noob question Alert. Noob question alert. what are disney dollars???:confused3

Disney dollar
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia


Disney dollars are a form of corporate scrip or tokens used at Disney theme parks, The Disney Store and at certain parts of Castaway Cay, the Disney cruise-line's private island. Most of them bear the image of Mickey Mouse or a drawing of one of the landmarks of Disneyland or Walt Disney World Resort. Two small monochrome reproductions of Tinkerbell float to the sides. There is sometimes the signature of the Treasurer, Scrooge McDuck.

The dollars come in one, five dollar denominations from 1987 to 1989 and in 1990 they also added the ten dollar bill to the list, and are redeemable for goods or services at the theme parks, the Disney cruise ships, their Castaway Cay port of call and the Disney stores, unless indications to the contrary are printed on the individual bills. Also, they can simply be exchanged back to U.S. currency. They were first issued in 1987 and are collected by Disney memorabilia fans. Special editions are sometimes sold to Disney Cast Members as a form of incentive.

Disney dollars come in A dollars and D dollars. The former created for Disneyland in Anaheim, California (hence the A), and the latter D for Walt DisneyWorld in Florida. Since 2005 they also have T dollars (for The Disney stores).

New Disney dollars have been produced every year since 1987 except 1992, 2004 and 2006.

In 2005 only, Disneyland (A) and DisneyWorld (D) released a $50 bill for A & D) "and" they also produced a different looking special edition $50 Disneyland (B) (qty=1500) and DisneyWorld (D)(qty=500) that were designed by Mr. Boyer, (Mr Boyer personally signed a select amount of these bills) for Disneyland's 50th Anniversary Celebration). [1]

Disney dollars are exchanged on a one for one basis with US currency - one Disney dollar for each dollar tendered. Disney dollars can be 'purchased' using non-currency methods such as credit and debit cards. The Disney dollar program is a source of revenue for the Walt Disney Company. The company assumes that a certain number of Disney dollars will never be redeemed. The idea is that individuals will fail to realize that Disney dollars have a real value and should be treated as cash. The assumption is that a substantial percentage of the Disney dollars will be thrown away, kept as souvenirs or forgotten.


Disney Dollars are created with anti-counterfeiting features [2] such as microprinting, and hard to scan/copy reflective ink and imprinting on the front and back of the bill. In addition the bills are printed with serial numbers and letters which are unique to each bill. Security Features


The concept behind the Disney dollar was mocked on The Simpsons episode "Itchy & Scratchy Land". At the episode's titular park, Homer converts $1,100 to "Itchy & Scratchy Money", advertised by the ticket-taker as similar to regular money, but "fun". When the family heads to the merchants within the park, they discover that none of them take Itchy & Scratchy Money.

:goofy: :tigger: :sulley: :dumbo: :goofy:

I really don't mind! I have seen enough threads asking where to get them in the Uk, and people have needed them for xmas/birthdays etc!

[Netty]

Heres how it will work!
I just thought that the easiest thing to do would be to send the amount you wanted, to me in dollars by recorded delivery, and i would send you the disney ones back by recorded delivery.
I think that it cost around £1.00 for recorded delivery, but i will check with the post office.
Jeanette :)

[Mrs Doubtfire]

We are surprising DD in October - let me have the details & I will send you the $$.

Thanks for this kind offer

If anyone else wants disney dollars, please just reply to this thread!

[Claire L]

I think for recorded delivery upto £25 cover is 67p plus first class postage.

BTW Netty you should be able to go and say hello in the PE area if you explain to the cabin crew that you are just doing that.
