Don't worry, it's not THAT question;) ,

Are they still selling the YOMD mugs, or are they resort specific?
Or did they come up with some other design of "generic" mug for the Celebration theme?
Curious minds want to know....

Ooooh! Maybe keylime359 or TCD can find out for us this weekend? Another mission!

It's ok to fill our refillable mugs over at the Wilderness Lodge right? Then, we'll have fresh beverages while we're sitting in their hot tub! :goodvibes




Working very very hard to get some points!! ;)

I dunno. I have NEVER found the refillable mugs to be any use at the Fort.

Most campers, and the cabins, have coffee pots and refrigerators (or at least, coolers). But, we love our mugs, just to use everyday at home! (and, of course, at the WL)

We used our as an "excuse" to hop on the golf cart and take a spin. Time for a soda! <LOL>

You have to have a golf cart for the mugs to be worth it. Then make a loop get a refill and repeat.

Soda run! That's what we call it. Jump on the golf cart and fill up the mugs. Make a few loops and go back and fill up again :thumbsup2

YOMD (minus the year) were still being sold in January. Beer is not included as one of the beverages.

Nope, but if anyone here swings by our site the first 3 weeks of November with a refillable mug of ANY kind, we will happily provide you with a marguerita! :upsidedow

Here is a link to the picture of the new mugs. They are not resort specific. I wish they were. http://www.disunplugged.com/

Thanks, Lynn. I heard they were not going to sell them until the blue ones were gone. I guess blue is out, and red is in! Hmmmmm.....smacks of politics to me!!:rolleyes1

Thanks, Lynn!

Oh well, at least it's a design we don't already have. We used our Dixie Landings mugs so much, most of the picture is worn off. Now the CSR ones we have are starting to show their age, so I guess these will have to do. I suppose this way people who stay at different resorts can reuse their mugs without anyone noticing?:rolleyes1 (oops, did I say that? Not that anyone around here would do that.;)

Thanks for the new mug pics! They're cute, but I'm in the camp with those that would have preferred a resort-specific mug. Ah well. Maybe we'll just buy one this year...

I like the generic mugs. That way I can use it at FW,WL,CR. I eat at all three so it makes it easy.

Ok this might be a dumb question but here goes.....I thought that during our visit last year to FW the word was the mugs were not life time but duration of stay mugs. We were under the impression that our mugs from last year would not be accepted this year....anyone??:confused3

You are correct. At one time they did sell life time mugs. Wish I had one.

I'll be curious to see how many YOMD mugs we see when we go back in Nov. :rolleyes:

Hey, maybe that's why they made the new ones bright red... because they're actually planning to enforce the mug policy and the red ones are easier to spot. :magnify:

Okay, so if your camping and you buy a red lid mug, where can you get it refilled up at??

They sell them at FW at Trails End. Have fun on your trip.

I've bought one at the Meadow's snack bar too, but that was last year...I would check though if you are there and not at TE.

FYI- On Friday, 2/13/09, I visited the Meadow Trading Post to see if they had new refillable mugs. On my last visit, I had noticed the mugs for sale on the shelves. There were no mugs, new or old on display. I asked a friendly cast member standing behind the register if they had the new refillable mugs yet. He said, "Yes, we sure do. I have them right here." He then produced an old blue refillable mug. I said I was looking for a new one. He said these are the new ones! Same drill at Trails End. Nobody knew anything about a new mug. :confused3

However, they did have the new mugs for sale at Port Orleans. At the Polynesian, they still were trying to unload the old ones. I guess the Fort will get the new ones some day.

Thanks everybody for the updates and replies!

Do the mugs from last year (that they are still apparently selling) the kind that fit into cup holders or are they the fat kind, like the ones we have from 1998 and 2003?

Another thought....if they aren't selling the new red ones at the Fort yet, how about buying them at either WL or CR (if they're selling them) and using them at FW? Depending how close we are to the Meadows, we may not be getting too many drinks at the snack bars anyhow, but I love to have the mugs for soveniers.

They are the skinny ones. You can fit them in the cup holders. I don't think you will have a problem either way. We actually use the heck out of ours for coffee when we are not at the Fort/Disney.

Which is where we bought one on the 14th. I did refill it at TE on the 17th and thought I saw some there but then again I wasn't 100% awake. I also filled it three times at WL later that same day when we took advantage of the pool swap option since Meadows is a giant hole and they for sure had the new ones as well. We only bought one, and of course the 12 yo lost it somewhere at WL but we broke even. I wish we still had it though!

There is a resort specific mug in the trading post for sale but it isn't refillable. It is cute though.
