Bonnet Creek PAY IT FORWARD..PLEASE SEE LINK BELOW FOR NEW THREAD!

I would vote NO on opened wine.

1) I wouldn't drink it because I would wonder if someone else had taken a swig...or if a someone put something weird in the bottle (perhaps a kid or teen as a trick...who knows!)

2) Potential of spilling in the bin.

I dumped out the open bottle of wine that was in my bin.

I would say YES to unopened alcohol, but my husband was qustioning it, as it could perhaps be a liability if the bin were picked up by a minor.

true.... but I'm not sure of the likelihood of a minor being involved in this Pay It Forward. I also don't know off the top of my head what the resort's minimum age requirement is for a room.

I wouldn't use any opened food item. I agree with any single serve sizes. I've left the peanut butter cups, individual salad dressings and wrapped candy. Bottled water is also great. I feel if I would hesitate to use something, I don't leave it.

I think alcohol sealed tight even if some used would be fine. JMHO.
But as far as opened food items that I am not sure I would use.

 

[TwoMisfits]

I would say yes to open alcohol (it lasts for months/years and most alcohols have VERY sealed caps) and no to open wines (they last only weeks at most and most are still corked which don't go seal well)...and yes to any single serve unopened alcoholic beverages leftover...

Hi,
Is a bin is available for Nov 25 till Dec 2. I don't have a high enough post count yet to PM.
Thank you.

Bin #1 is open for part of your stay, 11/30-12/2...would you like it for those days?

I have a question about what is permitted in the bin. Are long shelf life food items like peanut butter, pancake syrup, unopened chips, pop, and (opened) cereal okay? I would have assumed they were okay but I didn't see items like this in recent enumerations of the bins and I saw a post where someone threw out peanut butter in a bin. These are things I would see myself having leftover and hating to throw away and, on the other side, would be thrilled to find in the bin.

As many have said, no opened food please....I think spices, oils and such are ok, but make sure they are sealed up good...preferably in a ziploc.

I don't really know where to post this. Pay it forward seemed to make sense. We are leaving WBC on Sunday, Sep. 23, and have a stroller we bought while here. I would be happy to leave it with Bell services here at tower 6 for anyone who wants/needs a stroller for their upcoming trip. PM me if you can use it and I will give you my contact info to work it out. The stroller has a Canopy, snack tray and storage underneath. Nothing fancy, but better than an umbrella. Fits the buses fine.

Thanks so much everyone for weighing in. It's great for my planning.
My 2 cents on the liquor - we would have no problem with that. I guess I tend to assume some level of trust and goodwill among people community-minded enough to participate in pay it forward.

Thanks Branabb, that's a very generous and kind offer! I appreciate you doing this, and hope I can pass it along to somebody else.

Our pleasure. Happy to give back to the DISboard community.

This is my first post on DIS and I was wondering if I could reserve a bin for 2/23/13 through 3/2/13 if possible. This really seems like a great idea that you guys have come up with. Thank you in advance.

 

[Peggy5555]

I'm so sorry I'm contacting you so late, and if the bin is still available I'd love it! Have been fighting a computer virus, that has driven us crazy!! Let me know and I will continue to check this post to see if we got the bin.

We'll be leaving on Friday and arrive on Saturday, and we are so very excited!!! Never stayed at the Bonnet Creek, but have stayed a several other resorts. First time having all my children and their spouses and only grandchild together for Disney!!!

If I get bin #2, can I leave a couple pair of Mickey Mouse hats? Bought some of the old style hats just to take a picture of Granddaughter, but don't plan on taking back home. Would anyone want them if I left in the bin? They are the old style hats with the hard plastic Mickey face from the 70"s?

I'm so sorry you found us so late...the unfortunate thing is, the DISers who have the bin right now are already set up with contact info for the person after them...so I can't just add you in, as it would mess up the names on the bin.
Have a wonderful trip!!!

I totally understand. I should have checked back after my first post a few weeks back. Maybe next trip!

Does anyone who has used bin #2 recently have a picture of it? So I will know what I am looking for. We get it on the 20th

I would love to see it too, if anyone is willing to share. We have it after you right blessed?

Disneyforus...
Can you please note that our departure date has changed a day earlier (11/4) and 3Goofys (that follow us) said they'd be happy to get it a day earlier? Just want to make sure to help keep everything organized
