We've rented our points for many years via Dave's. This year we used another company for the first time. (We submitted our points availability to both outfits at the same time and the other company found a renter first.) But unlike Dave's, presumably because it is a Canadian business, the...

Thanks for the replies. I will check with GS before going for sure. I just wanted to see if there are folks with actual experience here as well. damo: for purposes of determining the price difference, did Universal honor the price you paid UT or the official child price on the date of...

I bought our family's Universal 2-park tickets last year (the ones that don't expire until 13 days after first use) from Undercover Tourist before a price hike to lock in prices. We didn't plan to go for a few more years. At the time I didn't even think about the...

Yes we've managed to have a couple for each kid since my original post. I took a lot of the cleaning tips I got here, let go of the need for everything to be "perfect," and kept the door shut on the rooms that got all the mess we didn't have time to organize. We haven't had more since my work...

It is a small/cramped aquarium compared to other "modern" built aquariums; even if your kid plans to read every sign you won't need more than a couple of hours. We went once with discounted passes; both DH and I said we were glad the family didn't pay full price.

DH and H had never heard of this place until recently -- and we both used to live in So. Cal. Based on my research, this is a small theme park geared toward the younger kids; my 10 year old may be on the high side but the place sounds perfect for my younger son, who still doesn't feel...

How was it?

I have no experience with these vehicles, but I think we may need to rent one for my mom if we go to DL during our summer So. Cal. trip. If we rent off site as recommended, how easy/hard it is to load these vehicles to the back of our minivan? Are they super heavy or okay for one person (DH)...

OMG Thank you for the wonderful step by step, room by room instructions! I need this and reading the steps laid out makes everything seem less overwhelming. I'm going to print this out and follow this.

I forgot to add a thank you to all the parents who provided insight into introverts; I hadn't considered things from that perspective and I suspect this lack of play dates is more of a problem for me than it is for DS. I just want to make sure he has a healthy relationship with his friends and...

Thanks for the replies. I'm feeling much better after a night's sleep and reading some of the replies and suggestions here. I've spoken to DS and he sounds interested in having someone over (but not jumping up and down enthusiasm). I just emailed one of his friend's parents to invite the...

My older son is turning 10 soon and it just hit me that I've been a terrible parent. We've never invited any of his friends over to the house to play. He used to get invited to a lot of playdates; but those invitations have dwindled over the years, and I'm guessing the lack of reciprocity is a...

You know that three day "free" option ticket has to be used by some date this May, right? Edited to add: Oops, I just noticed your signature and see you plan to be there this May!

This is one reason why I decided to buy actual tickets (instead of the evoucher via Universal) from Undercover Tourist. I want to leave open the option of having someone else use the tickets. Also, UT has better prices and I've used them before for WDW tickets.

It sounds crazy, but I just bought tickets via undercover tourist at the old discounted price (as it remains unchanged) for our anticipated trip 3 years from now! The price increase is significant for the 3 day park to park tickets (~$20+ per person). I can't imagine that Universal won't be...

I just set up the lights on tree #2 and it looks lovely on the living room end table! Just what we need to add that holiday touch to the room. I can't wait for the kids to get back from the pool and see this. Thank you donor and Sarah for coordinating this exchange! I took a pic on my phone...

During the online check-in steps the My Disney Experience automatically showed the credit card I have been using to hold my dining reservations. I was a bit startled as I don't recall authorizing Disney to "save" that cc (and if that option was ever available I always deselect it.) The only...

I recall reading one of the many MB problem threads on the Theme Park forum and someone mentioned finding another family's meal charged to his account even though he has MB with PIN. So we're trying to minimize potential problems.

Not sure if I should start another thread with this new but somewhat related question. Our BLT stay consists of 3 separate back to back reservations; the one in the middle is via a rental of another member's points; I added reservations to the front and end with my points. MS has notations...

So sorry to hear about your experience! We're heading there in a couple of days with my FIL joining us, and I so hope that we won't encounter similar problems. I hope they fix the situation for you soon.
