    Summer PIN Code!!

    For anyone who got the pin (I get PINs all the time, and figures, this time I need one, and I don't get it....holding out hope for that snail mail as my last 2 codes came that way:-)), can you tell me if the POR Royal Rooms are included? We are going this year for my daughter's 16th bday bash...

    Driving to Disney from Michigan - Split up drive?

    As a mom of a 3 year old and a 15 year old, I will tell you there is no way in H-E-double hockey sticks that you will make it to Florida in 16 1/2 hours. I live near Ann Arbor, and yes, it *should* take about 17 hours based on mapquest, BUT....we drove to Florida with them last summer. Drove...

    July 2015 Car Rental Code Watch...hoping there is not already one!

    I just got an SUV from Dollar on the "City Special" from MCO for $220 with taxes and fees for July 14-21. So I plugged in your dates July 1-11 and you can get a midsize for $219 all included, or an SUV for $282. P.S. Dollar has some other awesome deals for anyone else looking!

    minimum amount to tip mousekeeping when going solo?

    YES!!!! It's not that *she* got that vibe, it's that *I* did. To me, intentionally tipping just pennies is disrespectful. That's just my opinion.

    minimum amount to tip mousekeeping when going solo?

    It's not that *she* was disdainful about the change, it's that I, as a very good tipper, was shocked. The fact that someone would leave a note that said "housekeeping tip" next to literally a few pennies (I'm talking less than 10) is shocking to me, sorry. Quarters, dimes, etc, would be a step...

    minimum amount to tip mousekeeping when going solo?

    When I travel alone (on business, not vacation), I tip $2-$3/day. I make sure my room is neat and tidy before I leave (because I like it organized), and essentially, all housekeeping is doing is replacing the towels, toiletries, and making the bed. I think $2-3 is definiitely something I can...

    How much for tips?

    Oops! I posted here on accident (meant to comment on the other tipping thread).

    Help Me Figure Out What to Say

    Not *all* babies need sleep. It's a proven fact that there is a subset of the population that requires drastically less sleep than the "norm". My daughter happens to be one of them. I can count on one hand the number of times she has slept for 12 hours straight, actually, maybe on one finger...

    SURVEY DONE - Thank you! Re: Help Please!!! Disney Vacation survey for stats class

    Hi all, my sister is taking a statistics class this semester and had to come up with a topic to research. She wanted to know (since she has a sister who is addicted to Disney) why people choose to vacation at Disney World. I posted this on a Disney Group on facebook and it got deleted...

    Free/Cheap Movies for Kindle Fire? or alternative?

    Thanks for the great suggestions! I am a Prime member. I had no idea I could download shows and movies for free to watch later! I knew I could stream them, but thanks for the suggestion on downloading. I did that last night and it worked like a charm! I also love the audiobook idea. I...

    Free/Cheap Movies for Kindle Fire? or alternative?

    Oh wow, Sherry, yes, that's exactly what I'm looking for! I would actually *rather* have TV shows, since that's what will probably keep the little one's attention the longest. I'm going to go check it out. I don't mind paying, just don't want to spend $100 for the week:-)

    Free/Cheap Movies for Kindle Fire? or alternative?

    Hi, my family and I are taking a roadtrip from MI to FL in a few weeks for a cruise and WDW vacation. I have a teen and a 3 year old. I have one portable DVD player, but I'm looking for another solution as well in case both kids are bored out of their minds at the same time. Reading is out of...

    Anyone done a priceline name your own price car rental?

    Typically the companies will place a hold on your available credit on your CC, but that's it. My Hertz reservation placed a $200 hold and it was reversed the day I dropped it off. If you pay with a Debit card, then I believe they hold up to $500. Hope this helps!

    Anyone done a priceline name your own price car rental?

    Yes, and I would do it again in a heartbeat! I had to rent a car last minute for my grandma's funeral (out of town, 2 hours away from the closest airport), and the going rate was like $100 a day (with taxes, fees, etc), and I needed the car for 3 days so $300 total . I bid $15 a day, and with...

    Have you heard of "attachment style parenting"?

    I wouldn't necessarily blame attachment parenting for that. She may just have a bad sleeper. I have an almost 3 year old HORRENDOUS sleeper. She's slept in her own room since about 5 weeks of age, and stopped any nighttime feedings at all well before 6 months. She still woke up anywhere...

    Those using swagbucks ???

    So, you can have more than one account per household? So I could potentially earn say $25/mo and my hubby could earn another $25? He's a SAHD, so he may just be able to let the computer run all day :-)

    Directv question

    Also, Directv ran a black Friday promo over the weekend, so she very well could be getting a huge discount.
