We didn't book the bounceback either, we have been three times at that time of year and are ready for a change of season. BUT it is sooo hard knowing we left without using that bounceback. Who knows when any 2013 discounts will come out...if any? It is hard not to have a new ticker yet.

How do I talk DH into a trip next year? I so wish we would have booked the bounce back offer we had in our room.
What was the BB offer in your room?

It was the FD offer that has been posted. I'm debating on booking a package with the hopes that it will be made a Disney Visa or general public offer next year.

Edited to add: It was myself, DH and our DD (4 1/2) and my Mom (who's in her mid-70s). None of minded the walk to the GCH for the resort loop monorail - we used it for our MK outings and dining at the Contemporary. But it was so nice and easy to also get to the TTC for transportation to Epcot, DHS and AK!

I was there a little over a week ago and the BB offer in the room was a room discount, not FD? When was this BB offer?

When we were there from Sept. 17-21 the Bounceback offer was free dining.

This sounds hopeful! We can't use FD for Sept. 2013, but a room discount for hopefully fall of 2013 would be very exciting!

We were there the 15-20? I looked at the BB and it was still the clock with the room discount? Boo on that!

We wanted a quiet out of the way room again so we asked for
1. 3rd floor
2. Tokelau
3. Fiji
4. Aotearoa

Crossed fingers for one of these. We had aotearoa waaaay in the corner. Watched the monorail go by.
