My DH had to go out of town out of the blue. He will be back on Friday night and I will have him send a paypal payment then.

Thanks,
Nikki

Hello ladies,
Let's talk money for a bit...
So far 10 people (including Parith1114) have paid $15 which is $150 and the stroller cost $197 which leaves $47 to be paid back to Parith. Nikki says she is def in so after her we still need two more to completely reimburse Parith for the stroller.


$197 Stroller cost
-$150 money collected so far
$47 left to pay off stroller
-$15 from Nikki
$27

Next, Faindrops purchased the rain cover which was $29. So the next two will pay Faindrops each $15 to reimburse her for the cover.

I want to spell this out because I want everyone to know that no one is making any money off this swap - we are all doing this to help each other save money.

(OFF TOPIC) At first I was very hesitant about starting this swap but I have to say this has been fairly easy. I also have very much enjoyed getting to know everyone and chatting everyday about the happiest place on earth. Since I work with a bunch of guys who just dont get Disney, the disboard has made me feel quite at home. I hope everyone does a trip report when you get back so that I can read about your vacation.

....I just realized the stroller is still MIA. I do pray luckymonkey gets it in time to use...

"Ike, Ike, Go AWAY! Come again Some other day!!"

Still no news about the stroller.. with just 2 more hours to go before it's the end of the work day, I sure hope that it is on the truck for delivery... I don't know what to do if it doesn't show up, we are out of here really early tommorow morning.. Just want to put it out there.. If it isn't here.. what is the protocol.. is that something that parith will need to take up with walmart or fedex? Let's all pray that this stroller comes.. Good vibes come this way.. As for the weather.. I sure hope that it is nice.. we have been looking at the weather report, and much to my surprise we are supposed to have thunderstorms for pretty much all of our trip.. but from what I hve heard that is pretty typical for this time of year.. sunny one minute, and the next a quick shower or two.. I will keep you posted about the stroller..

 

[debraW76]

YIKES Luckymonkey - I sure hope it is there when you get home today?!? Can you call the fedex place to see if they had a package for you?

Parith1114 is there a tracking number? I wouldn't suggest posting it here but could you PM it to LuckyMonkey?
Also what would be the backup plan in case it does not arrive in time? Can you have them forward it to her resort?

 

[parith1114]

Just got off the phone with 1LuckyMonkey and the stroller has arrived! Hope it goes together smoothly!! Good luck and have a GREAT trip.

 

[debraW76]

I am soooooo releived. I was getting worried that she wouldn't have it and that it wouldn't make it to disney in time either. I am sooo glad it is finally here.

LuckyMonkey, I know you probably wont have time to read this before you go but thanks so much for putting the stroller together and for transporting it for us. I hope that you have a wonderful vacation and that the stroller is everything we hoped it would be.

Parith, you're next with only 7 more days !!!

 

[1luckymonkey]

You guys beat me to it.. It's here!! You don't know how much of a stress reliever that is...When my hubby comes home tonight, he will assemble it. I am not making any promises.. but if we have time..we will definately post some pics.. I might have to figure out how though.. My skills on the boards here are pretty basic..lol.. Guys have a wonderful time.. Here's to the stroller swap

 

[faindrops27]

Yeah!!! It is there!! I think that deserves a dance!!

1Luckymonkey- Have a wonderful magical trip!

Good morning everyone! Ds and I took a quick trip to PHX to visit some friends, but I had to check what was going on here. I was relieved to learn the stroller showed up in time I can't wait to hear about Luckymonkey's trip!
It has started now, everyone's trip will just fall into place like dominos. It actually makes my trip feel closer. Thanks Debra for posting everyones DTV (days till vaccation) It is fun to see how many days everyone has.
Faindrops~are you ok waiting a while to see if we get more swappers to pay off the raincover? If we don't get them I will definatly pay my portion. I was thinking that it might be easier to wait a little and see, instead of having new swappers pay different amounts to the 3 off us. Let me know. BTW has the raincover arrived yet?
Well I should go enjoy some Arizona sun while I am able to as it has begun to cool off already in Nebraska. (not cold just not hot)
Talk to everyone soon

 

[parith1114]

Yeah!!! I love the count down!!! I hope luckymonkey was able to get the stroller together without any complications. Oh my, I realized I need to start packing....gotta go. Talk to you all soon

Pertaining the rain cover payments.
I will wait. It does not bother me at all.

I was out of the house yesterday. When fed-ex tried to deliver a package.. They needed my signature. So, they did not leave it. I am wondering if it was the rain cover, as I have so many other things coming to me. Like glow necklaces, food, etc. I signed for them to leave the package today. So, we shall see.

11 more days for me!


I will finally start packing tomorrow!

Parith- What do you think about my suggestion? Is that going to work for you. Or would you rather leave it at the front desk?

Melissa

P.S. Debra~ I will actually be arriving the 23rd. I am just getting the stroller on the 24th!! I also love the countdown. Thank you so much for taking the time to keep us all excited!!
