    Is anyone from Calgary or Edmonton going to Disney World?

    Hello, I know it is a long shot, but is anyone from Edmonton or Calgary going to Disney World in the next little while and mind picking up the Boardwalk lounge fly for me? We have been Boardwalk fans for years and stay there whenever we go. I hoped to surprise my wife with it, as she...

    Selfie Sticks..Observation

    This is not a comment on whether selfie sticks should be allowed or not, but just an observation from our recent trip... We noticed a couple of times on this trip people with obvious selfie sticks (not gimbal's for vlogging), doing the typical self-videoing (or pictures or whatever it is they...

    Hagrid's Before Close - Estimated Wait Time

    The line gets shut down right at park close. So as long as you are in the line before the park closes, you can ride the ride (assuming it does not go down).

    Are VIP tours hard to book?

    I still struggle with making sure I am tipping enough. We are a family of 5, cost for 7 hours is $3,150. Is $300 enough for a tip (that's $50 per person, plus and extra $50).

    Wow, I have never encountered a really rude cast member until today

    Just to put a positive spin on this - I had asked a cast member what the cost would be to move my inlaws from the Carribean Beach to the BWV, where we were staying. This was so they could be closer to my wife, who they now only see once or twice a year. She asked for a minute to look and when...

    Which neck fan did you end up with? Were you happy with it?

    Your best “beat the heat” products

    Yes, it may blow ambient temperature air but one of the main ways your body cools down is by sweat evaporating from your skin. Fans increase the rate of evaporation by moving more air over your skin. More evaporation = cooler skin.

    Grocery delivery

    We were big fans of Garden Grocer, but the price and lack of selection (no Costco) eventually led us to InstaCart 3 or 4 years ago. I have also activated 14 days of free delivery just before our trips by joining InstaCart+ and then canceling the membership right after the trip before the first...

    Rental Car Rates

    I had the opposite experience on our August 13 to Aug 26 trip. The prices have come down sharply in the last couple of weeks. One anomaly that I noticed this year is that budget.com has had the best price, even better than Costco Canada or Costco US, but you seem to have to catch it on the...

    DisneyWorld too expensive for Canadians?

    This is interesting. I made a cost comparison on an upcoming stay, and renting DVC points through Dave's was a 35% savings over the rack rate. This is on a 1-Bedroom villa at BWV. The only caveat is that there is now a 25% off offer, so the results are less impressive with that factored in...
