    Is Trader Sam's at WDW ECV-friendly?

    It sounds like it's tricky to get a table at Trader Sam's under the best conditions, so I'm wondering how much luck we'd have as a group of 4 with someone in an ECV. Alternatively, can ECVs be parked outside the bar?

    Walmart+ (Plus) delivery/free trial with Canadian credit card?

    The Walmart+ sign-up page requires a US address, but I was able to up using a random state and a dummy zip code (00000). That address, along with my credit card info, was accepted for the sign-up. But signing up on the website isn't the same as starting a Walmart+ membership, and Walmart offers...

    Magic Candle Company - hefty fees/taxes over the border

    I did, but they didn't seem particularly concerned or inspired to change their process.

    Magic Candle Company - hefty fees/taxes over the border

    I asked them about this, and they indicated that they've had problems with USPS in the past, and prefer FedEx and UPS because they handle all of the paperwork/duties/fees for them. I sympathize, as I realize Magic Candle Company is a small business. I just can't recommend them for Canadians...

    Magic Candle Company - hefty fees/taxes over the border

    Hi all, This isn't strictly Disney related, but for anyone considering ordering from Magic Candle Company (a sponsor of the DIS), I wanted to share my experience. I realized that ordering from the U.S. might carry duties/customs fees, but I was not prepared for how expensive it would be. Using...

    MAGIC CANDLE COMPANY SCENTS - UPDATE

    Have you found the waxes to smell any better/different compared to the oils? I placed an order of 8 different oils after doing a couple hours of research, and my partner and I are incredibly disappointed -- especially considering how much money I paid for them (nearly CA$100 shipped to Canada)...

    Anyone else dying inside from the exchange rate?!

    My most recent trip will have to be the last one for quite a while. WDW is expensive enough as it is without our dollar diving.

    What is the best prepaid card for online purchases?

    BMO has a great International PrePaid Mastercard. $6.95 per year, and that's it. It works like a normal MasterCard, so you can use it anywhere. It can be loaded via online banking from whichever bank you prefer, just like any other bill. There's no charge, but there's a minimum $100 deposit.

    OT - ETFO Phase 3

    I'm going to have to respectfully disagree. I fully support the union and what they're trying to accomplish. What they're seeking is in the best interest of my kids. In my own best interest, I'm going to abstain from further comments on this issue. :D

    Is this a good flight price

    Seems like a great price to me, especially considering the additional expense of flying out of BUF (gas, potentially parking, potentially a hotel room).

    Flew in this morning. Gorgeous day, if a bit hot and humid. And to think I was worried about Erika a few days ago...

    Hotels in Buffalo with a fridge?

    Stayed at Days Inn last night. They have mini-fridges. Pretty happy with our stay overall at $89/night including park and fly.

    Frozen fruit for smoothies at the BoardWalk?

    What are the odds that I'll be able to buy frozen fruit somewhere on the BoardWalk? I'd like to make my own smoothies while visiting, but I'm thinking I may have to use the services of a grocer. Thanks!

    So Disgusted-Weather

    My first trip in almost 9 years begins on Tuesday. I knew the risks and shrugged them off, and now I'm a bit anxious. But it sounds like the situation won't be as bad as it could be... more rain than expected, but hopefully that's it.

    In-room coffee at BoardWalk Villas

    I'm staying in a studio at BoardWalk Villas by renting DVC points. 3 quick questions regarding coffee: Do these rooms have coffee pod machines, or older-style drip coffee machines? Either way, will my coffee supply be replenished during my stay? Are disposable coffee cups with lids available in...

    Did You Know?

    I meant that it would be easy enough for them to add this functionality to Magic Bands so people don't have to whip out their passports to prove their age. But quite right; there's nothing to prevent swapping them.

    Did You Know?

    Bizarre. And totally unnecessary with Magic Bands. If they don't include a verified age on file, they should.

    Walt's office removed from One Man's Dream

    True, but it's hard to imagine they'll be keeping it around much longer if they've removed Walt's desk and shipped it away.
