    Y.E.S. tickets

    We did Y.E.S. in June with two of our kids. DH and DBIL took two of our boys (ages 13 and 16) for the Dynamics of Technology class. They were able to enter EPCOT pre-rope drop, ride Test Track and Mission Space (green) early, along with other stuff. The class was about two hours or so. When the...

    Hilton Parc Soleil - Good deal or did I blow it?

    Whether going to the presentation is a good or bad idea really depends on you. What I mean by that is, what's your time worth and are you likely to be swayed by heavy-handed sales pressure? Full disclosure: I'm an HGVC owner. We own at HGVC in Vegas, but we just spent a full week at the Sea...

    Y.E.S. ticket question

    We bought Y.E.S. tickets for our group of 12 through open enrollment, even though only two kids and the accompanying adults were actually attending the class. Note: I haven't bought tickets through anything but open enrollment so this may not be the case for the regular Y.E.S. tickets. Our...

    Re: all the step-parent threads: What did you THINK would happen?

    Good lord, people...please don't feed the troll. IMO, the OP is one of those people who feeds off of negative energy and is getting his/her/their jollies off of stirring up a brouhaha. Don't feed the troll. Don't feed the troll. Don't feed the troll.

    Am I the only person who has noticed that people on here the past few days are NASTY?

    I originally came to DIS because I was looking for good information on how to manage our WDW trip. What I've found is that this board, while it does have some good info and a number of nice people, is rife with cliques, trolls, and downright rude, mean people. I got tired of advocating that...

    Medical question for the ladies

    I'll be interested to see if this post gets locked and the OP warned, since that's what happened when I posted a similar question.

    OT: any cashiers here?

    Funny semi-related story. Went shopping at a Harris Teeter's here in NC. As kids and I are walking up to the registers, we spy a short line and start turning our cart into the queue area. This mother and her teenage son zip in front of us, neatly cutting us off. Teenager gives me a smug look...

    Results of my cost comparison - LONG!!

    For us, off-site is way cheaper, given the size of our family. Plus, we like to sprawl out a bit. As a TS owner, it's obviously much cheaper for us; our 5-day / 6-night stay at a Hilton resort cost me $49. Even if we weren't TS owners, we'd still consider something like WH. The benefits...

    Disney YES Program Open to non-groups

    We ordered our YES tix on May 11, the payment processed on May 19, and we got our tix today (May 25). Maybe you should give them a call?

    Does anyone have a droid? Phone dilemma

    I have a Motorola Droid and DH has the Droid Eris. We both love our phones! My Droid does almost everything my laptop does and is fairly fast. We do get dropped calls but that has to do with the crappy VZ coverage in my area, bleh.

    Undercover Tourist for Tickets

    Had a TERRIFIC experience with them just this month. Bought tickets for two separate groups of people (my family, and the ILs) and then decided to go through Disney's YES program instead since the kids were really interested in doing a class. We were able to return our UT tickets with absolutely...

    Any hope for a scratched CD??? Help!!

    Unfortunately, if the scratches go all the way through (you can see them from the side that has the label), then you're right - the Azuradisc service won't be of help. At that point, I'd try seeing about a CD recovery program. Have you tried Amazon? You might find a few sellers there that...

    Calling all coupon queens (and kings!) . . .

    Have you tried All You magazine? It's Walmart's exclusive magazine that's sold in their stores and online. It's usually chock-full of coupons and I'm almost positive that some of the brands you mentioned are ones I've clipped from there before. If you go looking for this month's issue, it's...

    Any hope for a scratched CD??? Help!!

    Azura is probably the best CD repair system I've seen. I owned a video store for awhile, and it was a live saver for us. I'd suggest calling some of your local video stores and/or game resale shops if you're not comfortable sending your disc in via mail. I once cleaned a guy's entire CD...

    Im back and ohhhh boy

    Actually, once I saw the comment I went back and searched on the threads involving these two posters. Guess what? Things were way out of hand. However, this is a brand new thread started by the OP and the personal attack (IMO that's what it was and is what I told the mods) wasn't warranted. So...

    Sorry, but I find your comment to be rude and unnecessary. Reported to the mods as such.

    Please drug your kids before we leave for Disney

    Actually, I just posted because I'm amazed at the level of rude and mean on these boards. I probably should've left out the part about the other board, as it really doesn't have bearing on my comments. I don't need attention...I'm just amazed I guess, at how the DIS boards seem less focused...

    Please drug your kids before we leave for Disney

    Wow, this thread exemplifies why I've moved to another, invitation-only board that's way more friendly than this place. This whole thread is a complete FAIL on the part of the mods - it should've been locked as soon as people started hurling insults at one another. Oh, wait I forgot - the mods...

    Dis Mom's Club?

    For the most part, yes. I'll likely lurk from time to time. I found another forum that seems like it's a bit more friendlier.

    Dis Mom's Club?

    Sorry, gang - I've given DISboards a second shot at it and yet again, the Mod Squad has let me down. Getting a warning over a thread that was perfectly legit and had a number of replies is beyond stupid, IMO. With so many other issues, like the sheer amount of nastiness on the boards, for the...
