Anyone use the new memory maker discount?

[Capang]

We have seen the new memory maker discount for military and I was wondering if any fellow dis'ers have used it yet. You can't activate it until you are at the park or guest services but there is supposed to be no delay in using it, unlike the regular memory maker which has a three day wait. Wasn't sure if it worked as it is supposed to. I don't want a glitch to keep me from getting my pics and videos. TIA!!

The military discounted MM does work immediately. There's no 3 day delay.

Good to know. Disney is notorious for all the mishaps with its tech. Just wanted to make sure.

There is no before or after price for this discount, just buy it at the park and there will be no missed photos.

I am on a military Disney Facebook page, and several members have reported using the discounted Memory Maker with no problems.

The military discount is off the regularly priced memory maker, which does not have a waiting period. Anyone can purchase memory maker with no waiting period, and they can even buy it after their trip.

There is a discounted price for memory maker available online, and with this special offer only, there is a 3 day waiting period.

This is a rather confusing post. Are you saying there is an online pre-trip 3 day wait military discount version of memory maker that's even cheaper than the purchase on site only military discount? Where do I find infomration on that so I can add it to the photopass thread.

Sorry. I was trying to differentiate between the military discount and the pre-purchase discount available to everyone online. The OP, I had thought, was confusing the two.

The second paragraph in my first post above has nothing to do with a military discount. It refers solely to the discounted price available to everyone online.

Hope that makes sense

Just to add, military discount memory maker has to be purchased in person at Disney.

Thank you! This is their first trip and they are trying to save money. I know she was going back and forth on memory maker given the cost but hopefully this will be low enough for her. It's a great deal.

Is there only one type of Memory Maker right now? Does that include pictures from meals and rides? Also, it does include all members of our party, right? Traveling with best friend, her parents and all our kiddos and her dad is military, so we could have him buy it first thing when we get to the park, right?

Yes to all your questions. Make sure everyone is listed or linked to the MDE where Memory Maker is linked.

Here's a helpful thread:

Just used it last week. Bought it at the EPCOT guest services with my dad and used it that day. All of us linked in MDE were able to get pictures from rides and photopass photographers.
Great deal at the price. We had about 500 pics between us (3 adults and 2 kids)

Thanks everyone! We plan on using the military special when we get there. We have had tons of problems with mde when it was new and just wanted to make sure it worked without the wait.
