    ‘Wonder’ing through Alaska May 27, 2019

    Hi! The three of us will be aboard for our first ever cruise. We are Disney vets, but this cruise thing is still a bit of a mystery. It will be me, my husband, and our 16 y.o. We are celebrating our 20th anniversary (but still taking the kid along).

    a question for the cord cutters - best streaming service for live tv

    We just ditched DirecTV and are using PlayStationVue and adding Philo when needed. I used a website to figure out which service had the best combo of channels for our needs. So far it has been fine. PSVue's interface is a little clunky, but I can deal with that when I am saving $60 a month.

    Fantasmic dinner package reservation question

    I booked the Premium Fantasmic package for that Friday a few days after the 60 day window opened. I am guessing they might be sold out. You might want to call.

    Maintenance/Repair Question

    FYI, engineering came and said that they purposely removed the knobs and "it is really just a cooler and not a refrigerator."

    Maintenance/Repair Question

    Hi. We are currently staying at the Poly DVC on rented points. I have a silly question: can we still call someone for maintenance issues? Also, do the fridges normally have the knobs removed? I just electrocuted myself trying to turn the post with some tweezers. We thought maybe they were...

    What's a good cross-body bag for the parks that is under $30?

    I would look for a nice newish Baggalini Sydney on ebay. The only issue I had with it (I've owned 3) is that it can rub your neck when worn crossbody all day. I've added a small pad to reduce chafing.

    Beach, Yacht, or Boardwalk?

    Thanks! That should be fine. My weakness is mostly florals and the autumn scents like at Michaels. I can no longer shop there.

    Beach, Yacht, or Boardwalk?

    What is the smell? I am very sensitive to certain scents and we are looking at booking BC for next year.

    For those who use a Travel Agency to book a WDW stay

    I am 99% sure the pricing is the same from everyone. The only real difference is service. I use my agent because she checks for sales after I book and will rebook everything if needed. She is also extremely knowledgeable.

    Curious .... what agreement do you have with your college student as far as tuition?

    Please, show me your facts. Here are some I found: "75% of those who held a bachelor's degree in a STEM field didn't actually work in a STEM job." http://insights.dice.com/2014/07/31/stem-graduates-not-using-degrees/ "Michael S. Teitelbaum, vice president of the Sloan Foundation, opined that...

    Curious .... what agreement do you have with your college student as far as tuition?

    Thank you. I worked in IT out of college with an English degree and a master of public administration. We were often looking for people with a liberal arts degree for the higher-paid project management jobs. They have such a broad base of knowledge and they generally have much better people...

    Curious .... what agreement do you have with your college student as far as tuition?

    You are certainly entitled to your opinion; however, I would encourage you to do some additional research on this issue. First, are you talking employment or pay? There isn't anything to say that people with liberal arts degrees can't get jobs. Sometimes they are in lower-paying, but still very...

    Plus Size Formals/Homecoming Dress

    eShakti is an online company where for $7 extra they will make the dress to your measurements. I've always had good luck with them. It takes about 2 weeks to get your dress, but everything can be returned if it doesn't fit. Just look in the weddings section. They'll even change the hemline...

    washi tape

    Oriental Trading has a lot of it. They often have coupons that you can find through Retail Me Not and the like.

    wwaaaahhhh. ...my keurig is dying!

    I have saved my keurig from death 3 times now. If you haven't yet, search for all the YouTube videos on the subject. Sometimes I've needed to use the paper clip trick, other times the turn over and burp. Then, it usually needs a good descaling and it works for another year.

    Tracfone smartphone?

    I have the Motorola Tracfone smartfone and it is pretty good, but not perfect. The storage is somewhat small. I purchased a microSD card and moved as much as possible to it and I still seem to be running out of room for apps. It isn't awful, but a bit annoying. Also, the camera does not have any...

    Crowd reports from the last couple weeks?

    We were there the 9th and the 11th. I would say crowds were moderate. My cousin was in DL on Saturday, 3/7 and she said it was not busy at all. When we were in DL on the 9th, all the walkways were crowded, but we used RideMax and never waited more than 20 or 30 mins for even the busy rides (I...

    Help--questions

    1)Exactly how early should we arrive for rope drop? I've read conflicting things. We're morning people, so we have no problem getting there as early as need be. I've read that the park lets you on Main Street before the park officially opens; is that true? We went this last week and arrived...
