    Have a Photopass Question? Ask me!

    Why would I pay $14.95 to download the photos when you can do it free? Is there a difference between the 2 options?

    How long does it usually take to get your Disney GC in the mail. Just ordered mine after the Black Friday in store deal it says it could be the 12th before I get them which is cutting it pretty darn close to leaving. :/

    minimum amount to tip mousekeeping when going solo?

    I would figure out how much you want/can afford for the entire stay and divide from there. I think tipping is a nice gesture and I'm sure mousekeeping appreciates any amount. It can add up among several rooms.

    Too excited...impatient

    Posted this on the planning forum but no one is answering so even though it's not budget I thought I'd try here... My magic bands have been in the 'being personalized check back for shipping details' status for 10 days. Is this normal? We're hoping to surprise the kids on Thanksgiving with the...

    Thanksgiving plans??

    I hate the idea of spending TONS of money on a big Thanksgiving meal when it's just my small family. DH doesn't like big meals and my kids don't eat that much. Looking for a new idea. Does anyone do anything totally off the typical dinner tradition? I'm thinking possibly going somewhere or...

    Believing in Santa Clause/Buying Gifts

    In our house Santa brings 1 gift and stocking stuff. They can "ask" for 3 things (mostly so they don't know exactly what they get but also so we can pick according to budget that year). You may be very surprised at their reaction getting something "smaller". We go overboard a lot. Last year we...

    Gift card question

    We did that our last trip. I called to do it and she said to hold onto the gc in case we needed to cancel as the refund would go back on the same gc cards.

    Departure day surprise or time for anticipation?

    If it's your first time surprising I would do it in advance. We surprised our kids and it was a total let down. They didn't believe us and to top it off we were stuck in the airport for several hours with delay after delay. We should have been in Orlando at noon and didn't get in until midnight...

    Would you "get" this costume?

    You could make it better by getting a t-shirt and gluing on faux fur and a real sock. Would be simple, cheap, and more like a costume then just a fun Disney tee

    Homeschool Chat Part III

    We are new to homeschooling this year (4th and 2nd grade) do you have a budget you care to share that you spend each year? I'm a little overwhelmed with the cost of all this! (And yes, I know my children are worth it, but the funds only go so far) :)

Great for birthday stash or stocking stuffers. There was another coupon to I didn't print I think it was for the sets. I'm...

    Sorry another meal idea request...dont hate me. :)

    I know there are tons of ideas for cheap dinners/quick meals/etc on here. Our situation is a little different. I need ideas for high protein, healthy snack type meals. My DH is a drill sergeant and often has to grab a quick bite from his car between activities. It's really important to him to...

    Target Cartwheel worth it?

    Absolutely worth it. But to me even a small savings adds up and is worth it to me. Just make sure they scan your cartwheel BEFORE they total for payment or it doesn't work.
