    First time at MNSSHP!

    I like Frontierland. It's quieter, less crowded. Usually I pick my spot when I notice other people have done the same. I'll wait an hour or more for a good view.

    First time at MNSSHP!

    We'll be there this year, too, our fourth time for MNSSHP. IMO the parade is the highlight of the party and I park myself early to have a great view.

    Walker Mobility

    I've used walker several times and would recommend them to anyone needing a scooter. It is less convenient now, last trip (2013) we had to meet them in the parking lot for pick up and return. It was ideal when the scooter used to be waiting at baggage when we arrived. But they are dependable and...

    ebay question - new user + awaiting payment for buy it now item

    Unless you selected the "immediate payment required" option, only certain categories require immediate payment. eBay sends an invoice when the listing ends. I'd give it a day or two then send a polite reminder message or duplicate invoice. Two days is the soonest you can file for non-payment...

    first trip west May 2014 - any advice?

    Thanks for the quick responses. We have reservations at Desert Inn & Suites. I guess I better figure out where we'll be staying over Memorial Day Weekend if it will be that hard to find vacant rooms (we need two.)

    first trip west May 2014 - any advice?

    Traveling are myself, DH, (adult) DD & her friend. We will fly in and out of San Jose, arriving 1pm, Friday May 16, leaving Saturday, May 31, 2014. Flights are booked so the dates are firm. Loosely, our itinerary is: from the airport take a couple days to travel along the coast (to...

    ~* May 2014 *~ I'm going, are you?!

    We're WDW vets but this our first trip west. Well, I was at DL once as a kid but it was so long ago (late 70s). First time for DH, adult DD (21) and DD's friend (20). We are in California from May 16, through May 31, 2014. The plan was to arrive in Anaheim late on Sunday, May 18, do three...

    Merry Christmas Broken Transmission ((Vent))

    finished reading... If it's a CVT then the dealership might be the only option as parts are difficult if not impossible to acquire on the aftermarket. However if it's a CVT then $3000 sounds low. Get a written estimate. correction: area shops might be able to provide a remanufactured...

    Merry Christmas Broken Transmission ((Vent))

    (I haven't read all posts) I'm not a mechanic, but work in the industry. I'm making a couple assumptions: like your vehicle isn't a hybrid. Actually, I'm guessing that it's a CD4E trans, which is a labor intensive job. Prices vary by location. Here (NJ) that transmission could easily run...

    1st time flying SWA is early bird boarding worth paying for?

    Thanks for the input. The flight originates in Philadelphia but stops in Denver (where we change planes) before arriving in San Jose, CA. But the way I read it the charge is per one-way (origin to destination) which means it covers both legs and will cost $25 per person. I've paid that much...

    1st time flying SWA is early bird boarding worth paying for?

    We're a party of four. No young children. The plan is to sit two & two; either across the aisle from each other or one pair in front of the other. We're flying coast to coast so it's a long flight and being able to sit close together is important to us. Can anyone with experience on Southwest...

    Tweens and phones! Need a prepaid flip phone recommendation

    I like ATT go phone. There are a few different plans but the one I like best (if you don't use the phone often) is the one that has NO MONTHLY FEES. You pay more per minute talk time and for texting you can pay per message (which gets expensive with kids) or pay like $20 per month unlimited...

    ebay shipping question

    sniped by Richmond. also, when you are plugging in the weight, don't forget to include the weight of the box and packing materials. It all counts. Richmond is right, if you put the correct info in you won't have a problem.

    ebay shipping question

    I believe that you must include shipping information to list an item on ebay (unless it's designated local pick up or free shipping). You can choose between FLAT RATE or CALCULATED SHIPPING Calculated shipping is determined by the weight and destination. You plug the weight into the...

    Opinions on May trip to DL

    Hope it's okay to pop into this thread. Fellow Jersey Girl planning a trip to DLR in May. I read HydroGuy's DL for WDW vets thread. It's full of fantastic information but I keep coming back for more. I figure the more I know before we go the better off we'll be.

    A DLR Guide for WDW Vets

    Thank you, HydroGuy! We are frequent WDW vacationers. I went to Disneyland once as a kid, so for all practical purposes this is a "first" for my family. I feel so much more confident in planning our May 2014 trip after reading your thread. Thanks again :goodvibes

    Flying spirit airlines

    For a two hour flight it's doable. I buy a bottle of water at the airport (AFTER passing through security) cheaper than onboard. Checked bag $30, carry on $35. Personal item free. Personal item must be able to fit under the seat, though you can stow it in the overhead. The fee that...

    Flying spirit airlines

    Normally I fly Spirit from Atlantic City, NJ to Orlando. For a flight just over two hours it's convenient and cheap. However, we are currently planning a trip west and I'm not sure that the savings will be worth it on a five-plus hour flight. The seat pitch (translate - leg room) is the tightest...
