    Closed - Points gone

    I would be interested in renting points for May 9-11 at Beach Club Villas. Just need a studio. Is it available?

    Is it just me....

    Well, my point was since 2004 FL residents and AP holders always got 40% off and the base prices were much lower. They since hiked the base price drastically (not the usual $5-10 more a night)and lowered the discount for us. There was nothing wrong with the economy in 2004, so it makes me...

    Is it just me....

    No, that's what my park ticket gets me. As far as the hotel refurb, the Poly hasn't been redone in quite some time, so I'm not on board with your statement.

    Is it just me....

    For over 20 years I have stayed on property and loved it (many of those years, I was not footing the bill, as I was too young), but we have been finding more offsite properties lately. We go quite often since we are FL residents and AP holders, so Disney is usually a weekend destination for us...

    Site for renting points

    I saw a website on the dis boards about a year ago that you could essentially rent points for DVC properties, but it wasn't through individual owners. You just put in your dates and it gave you what was available and the cost. However, I cannot remember the name of it. I thought it had...

    Ways to sell baby/kid clothing

    I don't have Facebook, but a friend of mine told me about a site that has a limited number of members and it is mostly moms who buy, sell, or trade things. Also, for the eBay recommendation, do you sell like a group of say 12-18 months stuff or do you break it by outfit for the best results?

    Ways to sell baby/kid clothing

    My daughter has some nice clothes and accessories. Most are Baby Gap and I've tried doing the consignment route and I feel like it isn't the most efficient way. Also, I just bought her the Minnie dress from Disney and the ears for Halloween. My daughter is only 21 months, so she won't use it...

    Is it me or are the Epcot area resorts priced high?

    I was just telling my husband how crazy expensive Disney hotels have become. We have been going for years and the room prices are just not matching the economy (unless you go by gas prices, which are also ridiculously priced). They raise the prices each year and have lowered the discounts...

    Power outage: keep or toss?

    I read that before posting on here, but then I read you should have a thermometer in different parts of the refrigerator. My husband didn't want to open the fridge because the power came on at 1am and he wanted it to have a chance to get going before letting all the cold air out. He was so...

    Power outage: keep or toss?

    Thanks to Isaac, we lost power for 2.5 hours last night. No one opened the door and my husband checked the temp on the fridge when the power was restored. It read 22 degrees in freezer and 37 degrees in fridge. I'm worried for 2 reasons: 1. We keep our fridge at 37 degrees normally, si it...

    Disney Photo Session PART II

    We just did a photo session with 8 people-4 adults, 4 children. My daughter is 16 months old and the others were 5, 8, and 11. The photographer was really good with getting the baby and 5 year-old to smile. He played peek-a-boo and we got some really great shots. The hard part will be to...

    Sanibel or Captiva hotel suggestions

    Looking for a really clean and resort-style hotel. I'll admit that I'm a hotel snob and we are traveling with our 16 month-old. Found a few places. South Seas Resort looks nice. Would like to keep it around 200 a night.

    Wyndham Bonnet Creek- tips & helpful information

    Has anyone booked Bonnet Creek through Vacation Strategy? I received a great quote, but I am slightly skeptical, as I had never heard of them before. However, I did read up about them and their concept is pretty brilliant!

    Deluxe Resorts...how do you afford it?

    The problem is-they keep raising the rack rate and giving lower discounts. I haven't seen 40% off since last year. We still stay deluxe, partly because we need a balcony to go out on after we put her down and the other reason is because we've had bad experiences the few times we've tried...

    Flying this summer, not so budget friendly

    Did you pay for you daughter's own seat or just keep her on your lap? I'm afraid she will freak out because of the whole pressure on your ears for the take off and landing. Not to mention, I'm not the best flyer (I get motion sick), and I know she will want me and not my husband. That is a...

    Flying this summer, not so budget friendly

    No, the destination city isn't Orlando. In fact, that is the place that would be a few hours away that we could spend a night before and after the flight and make a little vacation out of it. Do you know if you can leave your car at the hotel and take their buses back and forth? The issue...

    Flying this summer, not so budget friendly

    Okay, my husband and I need some advice. We have 3 options to fly to see some family. First, let me say that we will be flying with a 16 month-old and only want a non-stop flight. With that said, our choices are the following: 1. Drive a few hours to another airport that happens to be...

    Can a stomach virus make you feel really "full"?

    Has this season been awful or is it just us? My one-year-old daughter was in the ER and then admitted to the hospital because of a stomach bug in both November and just a few weeks ago. Then, she got a fever and now has a cold. I feel like we can't catch a break. The second I get her off the...
