I've tried locally (Walmart, Target, Sears, JCPenny). Nothing to do but make a trip :yay:

Thanks! I'll check out the app. Here's what I'm looking for.

My classic Mickey sweatshirt has worn out to the point my wife says I'm not allowed to wear it out in public any more. I cannot find one online any where, so guess I need to make a trip to WDW. Just wondering if they are available at the parks/DTD. Won't keep us from making the trip, but want to...

Heard this on NPR this morning and remembered this thread. Thought it might be interesting to those following the topic...

Another vote for the L.L. Bean bag. I've used mine 3 days a week at the gym for years and it hasn't even begun to look used. L.L. Bean products are not always the cheapest but I have found that you get your money's worth out of them. I had a shirt that my wife bought for me before we were...

They're more like "guidelines" as Jack Sparrow would say. If you get a good vibe from corresponding with the owner and you can use a credit card then you are probably OK. I believe using a credit card will protect you from fraud in most cases. I may be naive about that, but that is my...

I'm interested to here other opinions, but here's what I have done in the past and so far I have had very good success. 1) Look for properties that are "active". This means reservation calendars that are fairly well booked out, lots of recent visitor comments, rate information that is...

We stayed at this house in Indian Ridge Oaks (just across the street from Indian Ridge) in May and loved it. The owner was great to work with. Very good price on the house. We enjoyed it much more than Windsor Hills. Having our own pool was much nicer than a community pool. Not having to go...

Checking with the HOA is not a bad idea. I usually look for some indication that they are actively renting and "in good standing" so-to-speak. If their rental calendar is up-to-date and fairly full, if they have recent reviews, if they are listed on more than one site, etc. Normally, you can...

After doing the condo thing and looking at the townhouse thing, we ended up going with a pool house just down the road at Indian Ridge Oaks. We paid about the same for a house with a full size pool as we would have for a townhouse with a splash pool. Boy what a difference! It was so nice to...

In addition to all the others who have mentioned things like looking at averages, throwing out out-liars (highs and lows), I also look for whether or not management is engaged in the comments. I doesn't bother me if somebody has a complaint as long as the hotel/restaurant tries to correct the...

We stayed here the first week of May, 2012 and loved it. It was virtually the same price as a townhouse at Windsor Hills but had a full sized pool and a game room. It's about 2 miles further down the road which may or may not be too far for some folks. Also, it's not a gated community...

I wanted to post an update. My DD15 took her frying pan into the MK and got it signed. Rapunzel was amazing. She told my daughter she like the "handy travel size". My DD13 produced a wanted poster of Flynn and asked Rapunzel "if she had seen this man." Rapunzel went on and on about how...

Thanks for the suggestion. I'll take a look into it. I've found that to be the case with all the full page themes I'm using, but that it is a great suggestion for fixing. It may not work, though, because Google scales the background image, but if I cut off part of the bottom, it might help.

I've created a full page Magic Kingdom theme that changes throughout the day. If you want to check it out, just search the themes for "Magic Kingdom full page" and you should find it. Enjoy!

We already made it clear she's carrying it! We were planning on getting a 3" pan due to weight, but Robo's idea of using the lockers may change that. She wants something to hang on her wall. I also like the idea of trying to get Flynn's autograph. I've had good luck getting character...

My teenage daughter loves Tangled and came up with a plan to get Rapunzel to sign a FP (Frying Pan) when we are at the MK next week. I'm wondering if she will be allowed to take a metal FP into the parks. It seems like I've read you are not allowed to take metal beverage containers into the...

One thing I have to give credit to TP for is that they tweet how well their predictions were against reality. They are usually pretty close to their predictions. It gives me some level of comfort that their predictions are accurate. That said, I check easywdw, too, since it's free. I don't...

They just brought their new planning tool online yesterday. It was very slow and flaky yesterday but seems to be working much better today for me.

Where is WDWMagic getting the information that Flynn is coming back? The Disney Parks Blog that they reference doesn't mention that. I hope it's true because my daughters really want to meet him.
