    January 2015

    Hi everyone! We are looking to go Jan 1-5th. (maybe the 6th if I can talk my DD into missing a day of school….can you believe SHE doesn't want to miss?!?) Been a few years since we've done the WDW thing and I can't believe how much it has changed! I have a lot of catching up to do. Good...

    What is your not so normal item to pack, which is helpful while at WDW ?

    I saw someone mentioned moleskin for blisters. Just a bit of info to provide to prevent those blisters. Each morning, after the shower and before dressing, spray your feet with antiperspirant/deodorant. Any kind will do---a cheap $1 can of Suave works fine. Spray in between toes, soles...

    mypoints what do you redeem for?

    I just redeemed for a $100 Sears gift card so we can buy a cordless drill---need it asap for putting up plywood to cover windows for hurricane preparation. I've cashed in for gift cards to give at christmas time for relatives. I usually never buy anything for me with them, but that at least...

    The Oldie but Goodie Freebie Thread for 8/25/08....

    First, thank you all for the freebies. I appreciate them tremendously---even if my mail lady doesn't. We travel and I put them all into a special box for our vacations (like detergent, shampoo, soap, etc) Nice to take them, use them, and reduce what I have to carry home. I enjoy freebies and...

    Was this rude or am I oversensitive?

    Boy, this question certainly seems to have touched alot of nerves, mine included. Do people expect to be thanked for polite behavior? I think most folks do. If I've gone done something nice for someone, a response showing recognition of that is somewhat expected. When I hold the door, let...

    Was this rude or am I oversensitive?

    I have done the same thing with my kids and I, too, find my kids getting run over by others because they are trying to maintain their manners. It's frustrating when you try to be respectful of others and that behavior is not returned. I have told my children that manners can help you...

    Was this rude or am I oversensitive?

    It really irritates me when you step out of the way for someone to pass and they don't say ANYthing---no "thanks" or "excuse me" or anything. I often say "excuse me" and when they don't respond, will say "NO, EXCUSE ME!" People are just rude! It drives me crazy. I try to teach my children...

    Hilton at WDW

    We just got back from WDW today and I just wanted to share a few things regarding the Hilton. We did not have a good experience with this hotel, though I do have to say the location was wonderful---directly next to the walkway leading to DTD. We arrived Friday night--check in was simple and...

    Hi everyone! My kids are going to the grandparents for a few weeks. Husband came up with the idea for an adults only trip--next weekend! :banana: Any ideas on how to do this quickly and cheap? Does anyone know if there are "last minute deals" from Disney World? We've got a couple of old...

    Need TY address

    January 1 2007, we were made Family of the Day in Epcot, thanks to Elton and Stephanie. They were wonderful to us, staying with us a while, bringing signed autographs of our favorite characters, riding some rides with us, etc. Two days later, we were the family that got a private meet and...

    mypoint users what do you earn for your trip??

    i just turned mine in for $200 for amazon--I had another one from a game site that I go to for about $90. I bought a video camera that uses the small discs for $41 out of pocket. Thrilled. We will be using it on our cruise, then again at disney in October. This way we can "bring the magic...

    Any Mom's work Full time overnight??

    I'm in southern Alabama where (I'm told) pay is a bit below the national averages. I make an extra $3.50 for night shift. And because I work a weekend program on the night shift, I earn an extra $2.50. I also took advantage of a special program they've recently instituted because I don't need...

    Any Mom's work Full time overnight??

    Hi. I'm a 6:30 pm to 7 am RN. I work Fridays, Sat, and Sundays. This allows me to take a nap Friday while my kids are at school and be awake when they get home. I can cook dinner, shuttle them around as needed until about 6 pm when I have to leave. My husband gets to be mom on the weekends...

    6 Flags Kentucky(have free kids tickets) or Holiday World

    Madge, I've been in Spanish Fort, AL (just outside of Mobile) almost 3 yrs. My family is still in Elizabethtown, and my husbands family is in Leitchfield. So, we go home a few times each year. I cry every year when the Derby comes on. Alabama has it's advantages too, but there's no place like...

    6 Flags Kentucky(have free kids tickets) or Holiday World

    I hate to be the stinker in the group, but my children enjoyed KK when we lived near there. We had season passes and went often. Everyone is right when they say the concessions are expensive. We were so close by that we would eat lunch before we went and then again after we left. If you have...
