Chit Chat Thread - November ADRs...

[Trinity88]

I like WDW Table Finder too. I have a few I'm using, including buddy and scout.

I use Scout since it is cheaper. It checks for ressies every 30 minutes (it says anyway!). It has helped me with a couple ressies, but honestly, these boards help WAY more.

Yes I got one from this page one from my FB page some from scout but a few from searching a couple times a day. My early morning breakfasts were from occasional searching on my own

I know you can all relate to how frustrating and heartbreaking this is... I've been on the hunt for a certain reservation and earlier, much to my surprise, it popped up! In the middle of making the reservation, it randomly glitched and booted me to a different page. Checked again and it was gone. Waited an hour and checked again, nothing. Grrr it slipped right through my hands! Sitting here cursing the website and DH just doesn't get it haha!

So sorry it happened to me with CRT so I know how you feel. You will find it again there is still time. I am however not sure I will get the ADR for Via Napoli that I need next Thursday for my daughters

I'm spending so much time stalking reservations for our November trip. I'm not sure where I'm going to find time to stalk FP+ once that time comes!

 

[quakechicago]

we tested all 4 and wdeewtools was much faster and had direct links. The other 3 if they notified you at all, they were long gone.

 

[Rumpletinker]

Yay! I found fellow ADR strugglers!

My DSis(s) and I are going November 8th-14th, and are currently stalking BOG (lunch or dinner), Chef Mickey dinner, and 1900 Park Faire dinner. Boy is this week booked up or what?!!

Welcome!! Sounds like some good eating! Hopefully in the next few months you'll find all of these ADRs!!

I've never had a problem getting my ADRs that scout notified me about. If it was one I wanted I've always gotten it. We can agree to disagree but none of them are searching at the exact same time which is why you may get a notification from one but not the others. I like scout because I think it is the better value.

I think this is the kicker - they all search at different times, so you never know which one will be the first to pick up on an opening. Though, they probably search at different intervals though, so one that searches every 10 minutes is probably going to first to find one that searches every 30 minutes, as an example

I agree. I have both buddy and scout but only paid for buddy since I didn't know about scout first. I've received alerts from both so I managed to get some ADRs I wanted. But I also got an Ohana on my own when I was randomly checking. I had that exact date and time set up on buddy but no alert from them since they don't check every minute. So that was a waste of $8.

Same for me I signed up for buddy before I found out about scout. I wish I hadn't signed up for buddy but oh well.

 

[River Country]

So you are telling me I wasted my $8 on the buddy??????????

I am stalking what I think is going to be the impossible ADR

Hollywood and Vine Minnie's Dine on 11/7

Oh look a unicorn!!!

Depending on how many people you need, I see H&V on the 10th on dining agent.

I need for 5 people but I am leaving on the 9th. I had an ADR on the 8th but I let it go because I also have CRT and MVMCP that day.

The 7th is my only option

I have both as well but wish I never signed up for Buddy. I signed up for Buddy first and while I did get several notifications, once I changed the dates of my trip the $16 I spent for 2 searches was useless as Buddy will not allow you to change the date or restaurant in a search request after 24 hours. I spent $6 on scout and I have 8 searches that I continue to modify dates and restaurants as I further refine our schedule. I have gotten several notifications with Scout so I feel it works very well.

Finally got our BOG... Now searching for the ever elusive Minnie Holiday and Dine with Fantasmic for 11/9. I currently have a H&V w/Fantasmic for 11/6... I had this before I knew about the Minnie dine, so now I am trying to change it.

Nice getting that BOG!! Did it just pop up from searching the Disney website or did you get an alert from a paid service? I've got a BOG but would love to move my reservation up some...although, I am ecstatic I even have an ADR.

Also, the cancellation thread doesn't allow 'want' posts so could you remove the specific date you are looking for a new reservation so it doesn't look like a want post...we follow the rules on this thread so the moderator doesn't shut it down thinking people are trying to circumvent the rules on that thread. Thanks!!

And good luck with the with the Minnie Dinner! I'm sure something will open up by November!
