Also, it appears that FD is not typically offered marathon weekend.

Thank you Bephus! I ended up calling RunDisney and it turns out that the information I received over the phone the last time was incorrect. I worked with a lovely CM who hooked me up with a Magic Your Way Package with the DP and everything is all set! Also, I did ask about FD and she said that there was a very slim possibilty that it might be available during the Marathon. If it does become available (which would be amazing) then I would need to cancel my reservation and rebook with the Disney Vacation hotline.

oh my goodness. seriously, where are the january discounts? i am waiting anxiously with all of you.
based on last year's timing this should've been out by now. should i interpret this as if disney may not do the free timing this time around?

Don't worry, it will go down again

For us about three months before our departure date is when Southwest airlines fares seem the least expensive.

We are all booked at BWV but I need one night since we will be arriving at midnight on 1/15. Hoping for an AP discount of some sort

I'm heading off to bed but wanted to post quickly first.
WDW in January 2013 and of course would love to find any news
on discounts and such.
If I hear of any I'll be sure to share them here!

Really... Really..... Pixie dust Please for free dining??

C'mon..

Still waiting

All we need is a yes or on... on FD, It's not that hard is it to let us know so that we all can book or rework our budgets.

FD or RO; I don't care at this point just give us something so we can plan. Even better release fD for January and send me an email Pin code or hard copy pin code so we can stay longer.

I am so glad we are not the only ones waiting for any type of discount. Don't want to admit how many times a day I log in checking for a discount.

I bet I check it at least 5 times/day looking for a January discount! You're in good company

Good to know I am not the only obsessive...er, uh, persistent one logging on multiple times per hour...oh I mean *day* to check for any type of discount for January 2013.

I am already booked at POR....hoping I didn't shoot myself in the foot for already booking w/o a discount. I know discounts are generally released to fill rooms. However, last quarter reports said room occupancy was down at WDW. So, hopefully that means good news for us?m

I talked to a cm today asking about a "pin" and he told me he hasn't seen a pin for anybody in atleast 2 months, but did say some sort of a discount should be coming soon going by the history of years past
