    AAA package and room "discounts"

    I used a AAA discount through starwood at the Swan for January 2015 and got a good deal. This is obviously not through Disney, but still an available deal.

    Aulani Construction Update

    We have been here for a week and the construction has been off and on. During the weekend there was hardly any noise but come Monday it started again. We could handle it but the jack hammering can be a bit cumbersome. We rented a cabana and the noise was right behind us. They gave us a pin at...

    Few things I've noticed.....here now!

    When I was speaking to your name being on the card, I was referring to your room key if staying on site. I believe that any other document with your name on it should suffice. A credit card, room key, etc. If you have anything else with your name on it, that should be enough. It is Disneyland...

    Few things I've noticed.....here now!

    She never indicated to the security guard that she had drove her and I strongly disagree. That is none of disney's business. Disney may ask for ID, but I think there are several other options rather than an ID. If you are staying on site your name is on your card, and there are several other...

    Few things I've noticed.....here now!

    I understand why they want to see ID, but it really is a hassle. I watched them turn people away yesterday because they didn't have a picture ID. A family was talking to a security person after they were turned away and a woman in her 40's I would say said "I left my license at home." The...

    DLH at 400.00 a night

    We have stayed at all the hotels several times and I wouldn't pay that much for the DLH. I might consider it for the GCH. I second the thought of renting points. We have DVC points and have rented them a few times. You can find legit people that are wanting to spend their vacation time somewhere...

    Where to buy cheap cute socks?

    I was just at our local goodwill store over the weekend and they had tons of crazy socks that were brand new for a $1.00 each. It was a great deal.

    Bake sale favorites?

    I know it sounds kind of funny, but chocolate dipped strawberries always sell out fast at our bake sales. I'll make a ton of them, put them in cupcake wrappers and sell them individually. Cheap and delicious.

    Paradise Pier arriving early

    We were there a few weeks ago and were able to drop off bags at 5:30 and then use our magic morning. It is definitely a good way to get two days of MM with only one night stay.

    Don't know what to do for Thanksgiving...

    Mimi's. What a great idea. We have done the DLH banquet some years ago and I would never pay for that again. It was like herding cattle, plus we didn't get seated for over an hour after our scheduled time. Mimi's sounds perfect. Thanks for the tip.

    Don't know what to do for Thanksgiving...

    Thank you for the tip on the vouchers. I think we will try to hit target on the way and stock up on snacks so we can cut cost there. Other than that, we can also cut back on souvenirs since the kids are there so frequently.

    Don't know what to do for Thanksgiving...

    I am registered for a conference at the GCH over thanksgiving. Therefore, we got a stellar rate on a room. We have stayed at all the hotels several times so I know what to expect; however, now I am concerned about costs. I need to get four park hoppers and I know food is going to be out of...

    The Sun-Tues before Thanksgiving...crazy?

    Thanksgiving week is always crowded, but lately it seems like every time we go it is busy. Try to do things in the early morning and then site see during the day. The weather is beautiful and so is the decorations. I would much rather deal with Thanksgiving crowds then July crowds and weather.

    Question for those who have stayed at both DLR and GCH

    We have stayed at all three hotels several times. My issue with the DLH is that they no longer have the balconies. I found the rooms to be a bit stuffy now especially after everyone has taken a shower. I like the ability to open a window to get fresh air. I think GCH is a bit costly, but still...

    Wednesday was a good day for me!

    That is awesome. I am trying to do the same thing right now with a conference. Have a wonderful time.

    Christmas decorations

    We were there last year and saw many of the resorts. However, my children loved the GF the most. The gingerbread smell fills the lobby. We really enjoyed that. The wilderness lodge is also quite beautiful.

    Aulani 7 months out?

    We booked feb. 10-17 2013 right at 7 months and didn't have a problem. Tool a look yesterday and four of the days are booked. I think it should'nt be a problem on opening day but I wouldn't wait too long after that otherwise you may end up on the dreaded wait list. Yikes.
