[Texas Disney Fan]

Thanks for adding them and just a suggestion don't have to do it,
When I do them I spread them out more like this:

Texas Disney Fan & dbenlee
DW- Fran
DH- Ben
DS- Rob (10)
from Southeast Texas

Disney Fans
DW
DH
DS-age will be 9
DS-age will be 6
DGM
From Dallas area

and so on:
It reads better for the long run and I always ask everyone that joins a thread for their ok to post there family on the 1st page ( so that way the Disboard can't be upset about anything you add to 1st page) You just never know about people.LOL
That is why for example I did just you and me as example

I was given this advice when I also started a Cruise meet thread, so I am just passing along the info that was passed along to me.
Hope this helps and Thanks for adding everyone!! It takes a little time and sometimes people forget that.
Thanks again

If you need to know what the DD, DS, and so forth mean I can let you knows too if you need. Just let me know.

Thanks for the advice. I went back and remove the other names. I will add them to page 1 as people give me the ok.

Hope everyone has had a good Thanksgiving.

Did anyone go shopping this morning?

Did anyone go shopping this morning?

Nay I had already got most done already. It just seems getting up in and fighting crowds to save a few dollars isn't worth it.
If I was trying to buy a big ticket item that was on sale and saving alot of money then I would go but not to save about maybe 20-30 dollars total ( most of the things I was buying were not on sale anyway ) on a couple of things I thought about getting.

Hope everyone else has better luck!

I had great luck- and I've been ordering online today too.

I have been looking for really good deals online and didn't really see any for where I live?
Any tips for me that I am maybe missing?

Most of my shopping was done in the stores- but I read on here(Budget boards) that if you spend $50.00 online at Toys R us, and if you have a Paypal acct- you can get $25.00 off, plus free shipping if you spend over $50.00 as well. So I got 3 Leapfrog games for the Leapster I got this morning for $52.00 shipped(they are 25.00 each). I thought that was a good deal.

I just got back in. I did not go out until mid-morning, there was not anything in the sales ads that I felt like torturing myself for. I finished shopping for my son. Wed. night I order his big ticket on-line. Of course my DH is laughing at me when I say that I am done with DS. He figures I will change my mind and add something else (which is probably right).

We are leaving on Thursday, for a suprise and quick trip to WDW. We got great airfare and I really wanted to see the castle with the ice lights. We will be doing MVMCP on Friday and then Saturday we are going to split the day between Epcot and DHS to see Osborne lights. We come home on Sunday.

Now that the Holiday Season has officially started:

Merry Christmas Everyone

 

[RAC]

We were scheduled to go to Disney for Christmas, but changed to renting a cabin in TN. I kind of chickened out when I read how crowded it is there at Christmas. Maybe next year!!!

 

[Texas Disney Fan]

We were orginally going to go during Thanksgiving week. Actually had everything booked including ADRs. But after our cruise this summer and wanting to go back to do the 7 day, along with the Osborne lights not starting till after Thanksgiving. We cancelled everything to help on the cost of the cruise.

Well about a month ago, I got a wild idea and starting looking at airfare. Then I came up with this scheme to do just a weekend trip. (so much for saving for the cruise, although it is not costing quite as much)

We are both very excited and have been enjoying keeping it a surprise from DS.

I understand. I don't think I would ever want to go between Christmas and New Years.

I just want to go and see all the Christmas decorations and stuff.

I have family in Tennessee- where did you guys rent, in Gatlinburg?

 

[RAC]

I think it is between Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge. The place is called Bear Creek Crossing near Dollywood. I have never been, looking forward to it.

It's beautiful in that area. My family lives around Knoxville- we always go there to visit. Dollywood is fun- went there the first year it opened, and have been about 10 times. Do you live in Tennessee?

 

[RAC]

We live in Lexington SC, near Columbia. I looking forward to seeing the Christmas lights and decorations at Dollywood, they say it is really pretty. We are staying the 23-28.

It sounds fun, we always stay home for Christmas- I would love love to go somewhere like that.
