CLOSED - FRIDGE LOST - The Under-POP-ulated Fridge Swap

[maroo]

Hey, Maroo...I just read your trip report w/ Lauren...it was beautiful!

Aw...

Thank you!!! I just saw this, by the way!

I have about 130 threads going in different sections of the DIS and I can't keep up!

Did you see the pictures from her 16th birthday? They are on my Sept pre-trippie, since her TR is now locked. I think they are on page 10?

She must've had a ball! She is such a beautiful young woman! 130 threads, OMG. LOL I'll PM you if it's important!


Well, goodnight, all! Have a great night!

I didn't realize we had a big gap in June - I will have to start hunting down June travelers! We have a trip planned to Mexico on 5/15 so I haven't been checking on my Disney trip plans as much.

I love the pay it forward idea. We always have left over water. I'll have to check with my swapper to see if she likes Bacardi Raz coolers

 

[Avonlady1001]

OK...just talked to Marge from Wegoshop. Gave her our payment info & we are confirmed for delivery sometime in the PM of May 6!

I can't remember if I posted this already, but I ordered paper towels, a marker, packing tape, cleaning wipes (lysol or clorox type) and our FRIDGE (the one on the first page!)

Yippee! I'm glad that weight is lifted off! LOL I kept having nightmares that something would go wrong & Marge would call back & say, sorry! No can do. LOL

I wish I knew. I'm still waiting on my kids school schedule to come out. There's been talk of our schools being on a 2 week break around this time, if that's the case we'll probably be in the area until late afternoon. If not, we'll be leaving pretty early.

I think that check out at POP is 11am though so the fridge will probably need to go to luggage services for a little while. We can work out the details when we both get our times worked out. Of course, I could just come on that cruise with you.

You are invited on the cruise!!!!!!!!

But as it gets closer I will make sure to stay in contact with you. I love reading the boards.

 

[Avonlady1001]

Good morning!!

Just thought I'd bump us up this morning! Looking forward to being there in 2.5 weeks and having a blast!

I was PM'd by the mods and asked to stop bumping. Apparently it's against the rules. I see every other thread bumping like crazy...I can only assume they'll be getting similar PM's? Whatever!

So, thanks, Bambi...but we don't want to risk getting in trouble.

I'm so jealous you're going in 2 1/2 weeks! I still have 151 days. It'll fly by though! DD4 doesn't know we're going yet. She thinks we're going on the disney cruise next year! Which we are...but she has no idea we're going sooner. LOL

 

[jjhardy]

You can't bump? Wow! Every thread out there bumps! I wonder if they are just doing it for the swaps?

Yup! Because the swaps have stickies on the top, so there's "no need for bumping." Can't imagine who it's bothering...but they asked me to stop us from bumping our thread, so we'll stop.

We can make meaningful conversation instead.

 

[aka-mad4themouse]

Please cooperate with the "no-bump" rule. It's been around since the swaps were started and it hasn't been enforced as of late.

This also includes no posting off-topic chatter and smilies for the purpose of "bumping" your thread. There's a link in the sticky for your thread. New members should be able to find your swap through it.

 

[Avonlady1001]

OK. So no joking about no bumping either. Got it.

And now, back to the swap:
One of our swappers PM'd me a question & I'll post the answer just in case anyone else has the same question..even if there's a space between you & the next person, that next person in the swap is the one who's info you need. He/She is the one who's name, res # & check-in date you will put on the paper taped to the front of the box. Keep checking the front page though, hopefully, we'll fill the spaces in between & you'll need to contact the new swapper for the correct info.

Also, I read in one of the other swaps, they taped a sign w/ their swap name on the fridge box to make it easier to find...I think this is a good idea! Any thoughts?

 

[3"Mouse"keteers]

I an interested in the dates Oct.18-25. Please let me know if those dates are still available!

The swap I was in last year used colorful wrapping paper to wrap the box in and then took a picture and sent it to all the swappers. When I originally just gave my name and tried to pick up the fridge they told me it wasn't there, but when I took the picture I printed out of it back to them, they found it without any problem! Just an idea!

Consider those dates yours! I've added you to the list.

We'll definitely have to do something to make it stand out. Bringing a pic with you is a great idea. Maybe one of the first few swappers will do something brilliant & creative and take a pic for us all.

I am interested in August 8-13. Please let me know if those dates are still available.

Thanks!

Yes!! Those dates are still available. I've put you down. to our swap!

Sorry I got us in trouble for the bumping!!!

I have printed out two pages with the info for the swapper after me. I was going to tape to the front (or side) of the box, and again to the top of the box. I printed her name in large, red letters. I am happy to print off a sheet that has out group's name on it. I am the 2nd swapper on the list, not sure the 1st swapper is going to be able to do anything for the box decorating. I've been looking for stickers to put on there, small to very large. Haven't run across anything yet, but will keep looking. If I go w/ wrapping paper, does it matter if it's Disney themed to you guys? I don't have any Disney wrapping paper. Actually, I just have some generic x-mas paper. But, happy to take it, and taking another roll of packing tape just in case.
