Disney experiments with designer fashion at its new Vault 28 store. The question is, how high-end can Mickey-wear go?

Cheryl - that is interesting! My take is that they are not selling the couture line online much (if they are then why is everything on sale now) and opening a store probably won't make it sell either.

Happy Anniversary Tim and Michelle!

Ugh!! I'm going to put you on ignore. As I've never used it, does that mean I won't be reminded of this song?

There was someone else who did that on our SSMC05 -- mikem861, I think. Another male from Michigan.

How does this ignore work????

 

[tinkerbelle77]

Well, that helped me make my decision. I'm leaving 9:55am. There is no way I'm getting stuck behind a bus of crazy DISers!

leaving @9:55...we will be there @10am!

Julie I'm so glad that the bags are finally right.

The mailman brought us a package tonight. It was the girls dresses for pirate night from England. I am so excited. They came in less than one week. The girls decided they wanted to be Elizabeth and we looked on E-bay and found white or gold dresses. They wanted the gold ones. The only problem was that I could only find ones in England that were afforable. They told me it would take seven to ten days and it took six. I can't wait for the girls to come home from gym to see them.

Cant wait to see the girls dresses!

I don't know if anyone saw this review of the 10/5 MNSSHP. It's a pretty good review with lots of pictures:

Ok I'm finally caught up, of couse I will be 10 or 15 posts down once this hits the server but oh well,

I want to admonish all those bratty chatties that a certain amount of restraint is in order here. There appears to be a sporting event on tonight that brings some cause for attention. So this household will be in dispose for the next several hours.

GO

I second that!

We've never had our guide leave us a welcome home message either. We have, however, gotten to see her at both Member Homecoming and at the DVC event in downtown Chicago. That was nice.

Wow - another UTOP! Shared with our guide Julie.

I have never got a message @ home, but I got one @ the resort!

Thanks Amy, I'm gonna check out Target for the water cameras on my way home from the gym (not that it's anywhere near close to the gym!) then I'm going to hit Party City to look for some Pirate stuff for the girls!

That's where I bought Walker's first pirate outfit. Whatever you do, if it's in a sealed package, open it and sniff before you buy it or at least before you leave the parking lot.

I went last night to return the original one I had for Walker that smelled of gasoline. I mentioned to the manager that maybe he should open it and smell it for himself and check the others in the same area to make sure they were okay. I even said it would be sad to have some child open their outfit on Halloween to find out that there was a problem with it. So, the manager opened the bag and proceeded to tell me that it didn't smell like gasoline, just plastic. I guess his idea of an ok smell is way different than mine as both Gary & I smelled gasoline on that outfit as well as one of my daycare dad's.

Naturally, they didn't have another one on their shelves in the same size, so I had to hunt one down at another store.

Something tells me they have one available for purchase today. I feel sorry for the child that brings it home.

Well Docless Diana - I am in the same boat as you and I forgot to call today, so I will call tomorrow morning. Of course I tried to call DCL and I got the snotty rep as well - you need to call DVC.... duh ... but the docs are from DCL correct. yes bet I cant give you this info... WHATEVER....

that you get your docs soon!

Congrats to Gail on 2000 posts!

Just a little PSA:


Ladies and Gentlemen - we are 1/4 of the way to a new milestone already.

Keep posting!...we will make it there soon!

 

[tinkerbelle77]

HOLY COW!!! This is the first I've had a chance to get on the computer today and I see I have nearly 30 pages to catch up on again. What, don't you people have anything better to do? I don't know how I'm going to get us packed and ready to leave by Saturday if I have this much to read every day!

WE ARE DOING THE HAPPY DANCE HERE!


OUR DOCS FINALLY ARRIVED!
​

I'll try to catch up later, but for now it's time for dinner...​

Congrats!!!!

Just back after a long weekend away and even had a day at WDW!! But....with all the catch up at home and work and then getting ready there is no way I can ever catch up on all the threads posted in the last five days!
We did receive our documents! YEA!!
I was in the Disney Outlet at the Premium Outlet Mall and found pirate t shirts for the kids so got that all set.
Congratulations to all on all the milestones reached lately.
Have a nice day.

For nighttime wake up's they have the special Cindy call!

Not this cruise.

That job's up for grabs.


Anyone interested?



In all actuality, that was a very scary event. I thought Lisa was going to end up having to leave the cruise as sick as she was that night. I've never seen anyone appear at my door that way that she did. As it turned out, no one had a list except for Lisa, so I'm sure there were some who showed up for the room tours only to find out no one else did. Wasn't it because of Ducky's presentation that we had to cancel?

 

[tinkerbelle77]

Don't blame me! I was in work all day!

So was I...But I still managed tocatch up...but this morning there was almost 20 pages!!!!
