    Coupon Train ~~ New Riders Welcome!

    I had both last year, but let my Sam's membership run out. I prefer BJ's. They mostly have the same stuff, but my BJ's has a gas station and a better car care center. They also send out way better coupons. I don't think having a membership to both was worth it. Of course, YMMV!

    Coupon Train ~~ New Riders Welcome!

    Hi everyone! I would love to get in on this. I used to be a part of it - back around 2009/2010 - and am interested in getting back to it, if possible! :)

    Wild Africa Trek VS Sunrise Safari

    Wild Africa Trek VS Sunrise Safari - we currently have both booked, one on Tuesday and one on Thursday of our trip. Do you think that doing both is overkill? Should we drop the sunrise safari and do something else instead? Or are they both so unique and different that we should keep them?

    Teachers and School Supplies

    I can confirm that when I was a teacher in NC until 2011, I did not get a dime for school supplies. Also, with a master's degree, I earned $31,000. This was in Charlotte, one of the larger cities, where the cost of living was very high. Now I live in SC and teach education majors at our...

    Facebook group

    It's too bad that the main DIS bride group went secret. One of my friends told me about it - she was lucky enough to get in like a week before it disappeared for the rest of us. I hear that it is a lot more active than the forums. :(

    Honeymoon Registry

    The Disney honeymoon registry just puts all of the money on a gift card. Therefore dates can change, plans can change, etc. If someone purchases you "dinner at Cinderella's Royal Table," you will actually just get that $150 or so on your Disney gift card - you do not have to eat at CRT to get...

    No Pixie Dust Yesterday!! I Hate Magic Bands!

    That seems a bit dramatic. We keep ours in the glove compartment just in case we want to swing by whilst in the area. Not very difficult.

    Dessert Party ?'s

    We are doing a small Fantasmic! dessert party. I wanted to keep the cost down as close to the minimum as possible, and requested fun basic desserts instead of anything fancy ;) Here is what we're having: Rice Crispy Bon Bons Fairy Dusted Tie-Dye Cupcakes Bags of Airy Cotton Candy...

    Shades of Green

    Dr. Tino is our officiant, and he and his wife are so nice and helpful. Randy Chapman is incredible. When we heard about the deal with Beatue Speciale that he had going on, I called him and we upgraded to that package for no extra money. They have also had great communication. That's really...

    Shades of Green

    Forgot to mention, in case you are interested! We are getting married 10/18/2014. I know that SoG is very hands off with their wedding, but I want laid back, so that is totally fine with me. Also, ALL of our vendors gave great discounts just because we are at Shades. We aren't military (FFIL...

    Shades of Green

    I originally spoke with them in July of last year, and then went down in August to check out the property and book. In July, via e-mail, they told me that the Gazebo alone could be rented for $200. In August, in person, they told me that I had to purchase a package, and that they had just had a...

    Shades of Green

    We have ours scheduled for 10/18 at SoG this year! The planning process has been super easy, and everyone is really friendly. We are not doing a package, just doing everything a la cart.

    No wedding dress for Fantasmic! party - would this be okay?

    Thanks ladies! (Part of me might want to wear it as a wedding dress, too, Disney_Alli...thinking about it! ;) )

    No wedding dress for Fantasmic! party - would this be okay?

    So I'm a SoG bride, and will be capping our evening with a Fantasmic! dessert party. I'm not allowed to wear my wedding dress to the event - which I totally get! No worries there! I've been looking around for a dress to wear to the event. I really like this one - and some of the reviewers have...

    Group transportation options

    Hello, transportation board! I need to move around 30 people from Shades of Green to Hollywood Studios one night in October. People are more than welcome to ride the resort provided transportation back whenever they want. I don't want to rely on SOG transportation to the park, as I can't...

    SOG wedding, Wishes at the poly?

    We are having a SOG ceremony, with dinner afterwards at one of their two restaurants. Nothing big. We would, however, like to go across the street to watch Wishes. Is the Poly better than the GF? Will the DVC villa construction block our view at the Poly? The wedding is in October. If we...

    Expedition Everest Line

    How rude. I've also never waited so long, and have used the FP+ system a few times now. PS - don't try to dichotomize "vets" and "newbies" - especially when you've only been around here a year.
