Haha yes we did! Nice to get the card that I wasnt sure I would get, but man it would of been awesome if that saying he won a vacation. Oh well, we will be there in less than 7 weeks, Ide just love to know our next one was free!

I was just able to enter using Chrome. Explorer still redirects, though. Weird, but then again it is a Disney website...

I entered earlier today, but was trying to enter my dad who's here right now. I'm hoping it'll stay wrong and up my odds for the day!

I read this on another thread too, what's up with the "skill testing" math question? That's so bizarre. What if you answer incorrectly, do you forfeit your prize? Is this standard of all Canadian contests or just these Disney ones?

It's a legal requirement with Canadian contests. I think they can't just give something away. No clue what happens if you don't answer correctly though. And no, this isn't just for Disney contests...it's for every prize won by Canadians, even if you won free food from McDonald's.

Yup that's the truth. At McDonalds during the Monopoly game I had to answer the skill testing question (lol) in order to claim my free muffin.

I got the 2012 Disney Planning DVD in the mail today. I'd rather see the FEDEX truck though!!!

I came home about an hour ago with a Fed Ex tag on my door. I was immediately excited because I haven't ordered anything. Entering the tracking number, it shows this came from Quebec, so I was deflated. No idea what I could be getting from Canada.

is the 2012 dvd any different than the 2011 one? I thought about ordering one but only if it is different

disney.go.com/memories is currently redirecting me to http://disney.go.com/xd/kickbuttowski/

I can't enter... Anyone else?

I am getting this too...

(For those of us with screen doors)

Does anyone else open their door everyday and hope there's a white envelope in there?

EVERY DAY when I get home, I hold my breath and open slowly.......... dang. Nothing today.

Canadians don't normally get taxed on winnings. We have to answer a "skill testing" math question in order to claim the prize instead.

That makes sense... and if "they" only knew what these qesutions look like

Yes! I wish I knew what the questions were like! They say you can't have any electronic or physical help...so hopefully any Canadians that get picked are good at math! Or lets hope the question is 2+2!

ONLY 2 MORE DAYS TILL THE NEXT ROUND OF WINNERS!!!
I think this is worse than waiting for xmas

My husband is going to be bound to the house all day Thursday...just in case

Happy Birthday!!

Speaking of birthdays, hubby & I decided that if we did win one of these trips - we would use it for our daughter's 13th birthday this year. She is SO excited about becoming a teenager. She & I will go, and she can invite 2 friends. Then we'll pay seperately for my husband & son to come along.

Unfortunately, she'd only be able to bring one friend- and that friend's mother or father! One of the rules says that an minor on the trip must be accompanied by a parent. We're a family of three, and my daughter was sad to read that if we won, we'd have to bring an adult as our 4th!
Good luck to you!

Here's some info on the canadian skill questions.

I'm guessing its on your affidavit. I am such worrier that I would check the answer again and again and again.

I'm confused then. I am the adult that would be accompanying minors. Or do you mean there's something specifically in the rules that state a non-relative minor would have to have their own parent accompany them? That seems like a silly thing. I would think all I would need is a letter of permission or something from the child's parents. Hmm.. I'll have to take a look at the rules later.

Of course, this is still daydreaming on my part. Need to win first!

Looked at the rules and it says minor must be accompanied by his/her parent/legal guardian. I do think Disney would not mind as long as there is written permission from the other child(ren) parent(s).

But in any case, if we were so lucky, then our family of 4 would take the trip and we would pay for the 2 girls to come with us. Whether we pay for the 2 girls or my husband & son - it works out the same. Thanks for the heads-up!

Maybe it's a math test

 

[missfigment]

does this remind anyone of the golden ticket from Charlie and the Chocolate Factory?

More like a French math test!

Not too different. Same girl being the host. Same spiel. The other girl who introduces the parks is the same and the clips seem the same to me. But then there is some info about "new fantasyland" in the MK information. And when you check the resorts they now talk about the new Royal Rooms. I didn't get to watch all the parks yet but it is pretty similar to the 2011. I was kind of dissapointed!

Now if only the FedEx man would show up and cheer me up!

Yep- Disney 's rule is very specific- read it
