DAP and pin trading

[disneydreamgirl]

Just curious if anyone remembers from last year if any of the CM's had pin lanyards on at the TSM party. Any other DAP'ers planning on pin trading?

I'm thinking the answer might be no and no! Would pin trading without my DS be a little geeky? I just love it so!!

I always have my pin trading lanyard on and was hoping for a chance to meet fellow pin traders. I am an avid trader.
I also will probably be wearing my pin vest most of the trip, if it is cool enogh. It is normally too hot to wear it, but I don't think that will be a problem this trip. Penny

I am not sure about whether the CM's will be wearing trading lanyards at the party, as I was unable to attend last year's event. However I do know that there are a few DIS'ers that enjoy trading.

Myself, I collect more than I trade. But they make good impromptu engagement jewelry.

Glad to hear it! I wear mine normally and refresh with about 8 or 10 pins daily. I've met so many people because they are admiring one pin or another. I love to make someone's day by giving one...last trip we met the sweetest little boy who took a shine to my father and it was his birthday so I had to give him the Epcot pin on my lanyard that day as that's where we were. I'll never forget my dad walking hand-in-hand with this little boy who seemed to have adopted him as Grandpa for the day.

I agree, I love the look you get when you surprise a child with a pin. Penny
