    DVC at the Post Office

    We got a "DVC discount" at the local farm stand last fall! The lady rounded down because she didn't want to break a ten dollar bill. She owns at AKL!

    names listed on travel plan

    And when it happened to us, it was very difficult for me ( owner & planner) to make, modify and cancel any ADR's. Then the thank you postcard went to another person in our party which upset my kids.

    Concerned about DVC

    After staying two nights at Port Orleans-Riverside in a Royal Guest Room, two nights at AKV, and one night at SSR, my 12yo DD said POR is a hotel but DVC is home. We own at BWV and have stayed there several times in addition to OKW and BCV. Yes we have had some issues but overall we are very...

    Sending a package to yourself

    Thank's so much! I just wanted to make sure. We are flying so we are very limited to what she can bring. At least if I can send a box with her immediate "must haves," there will be less shopping at that end.

    Sending a package to yourself

    I am taking my daughter down next week for the college program. We will be staying at AKV. Can I send a package with some of her things to AKV addressed to myself with my reservation number on it? I know BWV's will charge an additional delivery fee, will AKV?

    DVC Occupancy Thread Part 2

    The good thing about Disney is that there will be beds for everyone in your party. I have made reservations at other hotel and then once we get in the room there were accommodations for only 2 out of the 4 of us. No rolling beds, nothing. The management could care less. At Disney I never...

    Transportation from A.O.A to Chef Mickey's??

    When we were there in April there was no 6:30 bus. Our only option was a cab. Well worth the $15. It picked us up at our door at OKW & dropped us off at the door of the CR. It all depends on MK hours as to when the buses are running.

    July 2012 Car Rentals

    Wow! The prices went down about a week ago and now they went up. We are looking to rent full size/intermediate SUV July 3rd to the 16th. Prices are about $100 more. I have an SUV reserved for $342 and now it is $430 and up plus mileage is not unlimited. We are driving from Chicago so that...

    Just bought tickets through Undercover Tourist

    I ordered tickets on the 3rd before the increase but have not heard from UT. Starting to worry. Sounds like they have been busy. It's hard being patient when we need them soon!

    Watch Your Points! MS Changing Reservations Without Consent

    Yep, happened to us too. Was told by member services that the CM at the resort (BWV) did it. Left us short 34 points that will not be given back. Said it was because of the dining plan on a segmented reservation. Very frustrating.

    Rainy days and Mondays?

    We go on with our day with or without rain! Or if it is cold, we get dvd's and bond with a "home cooked" mean in our villa! Either way my kids have fond memories of just hanging with the family. This is one of the reasons we love DVC!

    Question on linked DVC reservation and the DDP

    As vicki c said, we had waitlisted days treated as segmented days even though I did not want them segmented. The reservation was linked, the waitlisted days had the same reservation number as the rest of the reservation. It was a nightmare, had to go back to the front desk to get it fixed...

    DCV for family of 5?

    We are a family of 5 (3 girls) that often stayed in a 1br when the kids were small. Now that the youngest is 10 and the the others are in high school and college, we find that a 2br is most comfortable. Having 2 bathrooms makes a huge difference not to mention the extra space. Yet with DVC we...

    Kohl's or mom & pop for sneakers?

    I agree with many of the others here. Go to a running store. Kohl's is fine for casual wear. If the shoes are being used for any type of serious sports, the running/sports store will have the appropriate shoes. Kohl's will carry the top name brands but usually only the lower end of that...

    Just back from Kidani--some random thoughts...

    Palaemon, it seemed like the smoking areas are in more prominent areas. At the Beach Club it is right on the main sidewalk. There is another one adjacent to or on the sidewalk by Stormalong Bay. The smoke was very strong while sitting in that section of the pool. Plus CM's were very tolerant...

    MAC + Disney Venomous Villains Makeup Collection

    No it is not "budget" but to create such dramatic looks no other makeup has the pigments in their makeup like MAC. So it kinda fits into the budget since you can do more with less.

    Just back from Kidani--some random thoughts...

    Have they recently changed the locations of the smoking areas? We are not smokers and it seemed like they added more locations or moved the smoking locations to very prominent places. I never seemed to notice before. On our last trip, the first week of July, we found ourselves walking through...
