40% off AND free dining pin, anyone?

[lucynme]

Can anyone who was lucky and got the combo deal pin of 40%off AND free dining PLEASE enlighten me as to how and when they received it? Was it by post or an e-mail, and if an e-mail, what was it titled? My worst fears may have come true!!!

Normally email PINS come from Disney Destinations and the title of the emails are something like: "Special Offer for the xxx Family" ...something that does let you know there is a 'deal' inside it...not just your monthly email.
HTH

OK, thanks! I know my In-Laws got an offer by snail mail last year. I purged a bunch of e-mails from a personal account that doesn't get used much (have work e-mail) and it dawned on me that THAT is the address Disney uses!!! *fingers crossed* a pin # wasn't among the deleated! UGH!

I have gotten the 40% pin and the FD pin in the last few weeks. They will not let me use them together - DARN IT!! Boy if they would, I would have made ressies for as long of a vacation as possible!!

Wow i guess i must be the Lucky one. I got a code in my email then mail saying A Dream offer for the XXXX family. I was offered 40% off plus free dinning. Saved me some change. More goodies for me to buy now. Will be at At the World from Dec6 - 13.

Oh my goodness you ARE lucky!! I just called Disney when I saw this post, and asked if by some chance I had a pin code under my name, but alas, I don't. We're going to WL at the very end of November/first week of December, and we used the 40% off code that I got back in february.

I was hoping I'd have a little chance at some extra cash, if the dining could be free (or discounted, since we got the deluxe this time) but oh well.

Maybe I'll get lucky next time. I am going to take my son sometime in the late winter/early spring.

Can you tell us what dates it was for?

If it's not too nosy, would you share the resort you got and the price for the package? Also, did it include tickets? I've been searching my inbox like crazy but no luck for me yet.

You are so lucky!!!! Oh man, i am hoping for this pin!! I hope they still offer some type of discount to the General Public soon!!

We are staying at POP for 2
7 night Preferred
8 days
plus park hopper & more
DDP plan
Total $1067.00 plus 200 ins. if i want to add.

If you add it up without discount it would be almost $2034.00. All i can say is Santa came early.

That is an AWESOME price!!!! I was thinking it was only for the Deluxes which I can't justify the costs, 40% off or not, but to see that you were able to use it at POP makes me want the code even more.

Hope you have a GREAT trip! And hope I get the same PIN code!

i took a few days away from this board after the 8/12 debacle and it looks like i missed out. question: when did you get this code?

 

[mazdabug]

I got it thru email, then they sent card via u.s. mail.
About 2 weeks ago.

 

[scgustin]

Did the e-mail/offer have specific dates that were valid for the offer? Can you just copy the e-mail in the boards so we can see it?

 

[jtdl]

WOW!!!! If I get one of those pins (40% off and free dining) my mind will defintely be made up between WDW and a Caribbean resort!!!! I've received email pins and snail mail pins in the past but not for about 3 years - my fingers are crossed

Any chance these 40% off pins ever come AFTER you've paid for your vacation? Like maybe allowing you to recieve a refund of 40%?

It sure would be nice since we sprung full price for AKL and now many people in the value and moderate resorts are getting free upgrades to delux.

Not really trying to whine or anything--we're VERY excited about our upcoming stay and going luxury was a decision we made and were willing to pay for to make sure we got it rather than rolling the dice, booking value and crossing our fingers for an upgrade--just saying that a price break would be NICE and more than a little helpful with our budget.

Providing availability, you can always apply a discount to your trip after you've booked.

Cool. Not that our chances of getting one are high or anything, but it's fun to know it's even a possibility!

When are you going? There is almost always a way to get some type of discount.
