Disney Movie Rewards ????

[MickeyP]

If you're looking at the last reward going from least amt of pts to most, there is a 3 night stay at Disney's Art of Animation Resort. Tell me how one would ever require 22,000 points. I have purchased 3 Toy Story 3 dvds and it only allowed one entry per title. I believe when I tried to enter a 2nd code, it came back with, "You already entered Toy Story 3". What's the deal and what am I missing? 22,000 pts? How?

Well, I suppose if you had never redeemed any points, and had started accruing points with DVD purchases (100 pts), then Blu-Ray purchases (125 pts) and bought the smaller releases (like Mickey Mouse Clubhouse, Jake & Neverland Pirates) at 75-100 pts each, plus redeemed max points for all the Disney movies released (200 pts for 4 ticket stubs), over a period of years, you could get to 22,000 points. And they do bonus points at holidays (got 50 pts for New Years) and birthdays (I got 100 pts for my birthday last week). You could probably get there, eventually. A quick look at my account shows me I've accumulated probably over 7000 points since 2008, and the program has been in existence longer than that and I've bought nowhere near all the DVDs, Blu-Rays and such available, nor have I been to all the movies. It's definitely possible!

I'm wondering the same thing! We have around 15 Blu-rays, and only 2000 points. We have redeemed any, either. I feel like by the time you had 22,000 points, you would have spent more money than the reward is worth!

I have written to DMR before (and never received a response) as to why they do not allow you to enter a code twice...my example: they apparently use one code for each dvd TITLE, not each individual DVD. I have purchased multiple copies of the same TITLE (one for DD in college, or to replace a broken dvd), but when I have entered those codes, it tells me that they are already used. I have written in with photos of the new receipts showing that this is a new purchse, but apparently that doesn't mean anything to them. I suppose I could start separate accounts for each purchase, but that seems silly since I am the one paying for the duplicate copies...
Sorry, to take over your thread, but I had to get that off my chest!

I thought the exact same thing! that's ALOT of DVD's to get to that amount of points! Something we will never get to, that's for sure!!!

I have over 13000 points, but I can't imagine getting up to 22000 either.

They can't use one code for each title. I am sure that they use a special sequence for each title to tell them what movie it is but one for each title would let people share codes and everyone would have the points without buying. It doesn't work that way... thank goodness.

They probably set the point values for those big ticket rewards so high figuring no one will ever actually earn that many points. I suppose it's possible, but not likely.

The best reward they've ever offered on DMR, in my opinion, was a $20 Disney GC! I grabbed one when they had them up last year (it was one per account or I would have gotten more) but they haven't offered them since. I don't need memorabilia or DVDs or other random stuff, but $ for Disney is always nice!

I keep holding out hope that they're going to bring back the $20 gift card too. That was an awesome reward!!

I missed that one!! Do you remember how many points it was? Thats truly a great "reward"!!

We got our monthly newsletter today from DMR. Received 7 points for clicking through. In the past it was 10-20.

By sending in the ticket stubs from the movies, we received 100-125 pts for each. But with our family, that's way too much $$$ to spend.

About 6 months ago, the Cars lunch box was lowered to 300 points for a few days. Snagged that.

Right now I'm just saving my points. Yep, that vacation is a dream...

Someone I know is a day camp director at the local park district.

The campers go to a movie once a week. She submits all the movie tickets on her account. I think they allow like 30 tickets per movie (I can't remember what she said). She has a lot of points.

I have just over 6000. I will never make it to the AOA award. I did get some faires essken floaty pens. I love Danish floaty pens. They make me happy.

As far as I know, they only allow 4 tickets per movie.

That seems extremely unfair. I work at a day camp, and I am most certainly not paying for the campers tickets out of pocket. Their parents pay or the theater donates the tickets. So I wouldn't feel like I deserved those rewards I hope Disney does not actually allow 30 tickets per movie, because that allows for people to cheat. Unless they are going to the movies 30 times, in which case I think they need to reevaluate their budgets

 

[MickeyP]

If someone chaperoned my kid to go to the movies (paid or not) I think they truly deserve to keep my kid's ticket stub. In fact, I'll even go as far as saying I think a parent who asks for it is being petty. I'm sure that is a small perk for being a low-paid camp counselor.

Does anyone know the latest movie that they accepted tickets for? Or the next one?

They're currently accepting stubs for Monsters Inc 3-D, Wreck-It Ralph and Frankenweenie. As far as I know, they accept stubs for all Disney releases.

As a previous poster said, there is a maximum redemption of 4 stubs per movie for a total of 200 points.

 

[Sagginit]

I think it is an aspirational award and as others said you may spend more trying to achieve it than it would cost. they most likely know people are not going to actually redeem their points for these but 1) it gives you hope you could earn a free hotel and thus is almost like a carrot on a string 2) it is an easy reward to offer for those that for some crazy reason have massive amounts of points (if no one takes them up on it there is no product sitting on the shelf unlike the lower point rewards).

How?

Blu-ray, not DVD, is the answer -- and Disney wants to sell lots of them!

For a few dollars more, you can get up to 150 DMR points, which adds-up twice as quick.

Currently, I am closing-in on 13,000 points (I'm working on that behind the scenes trip at the Disney studios in Burbank, CA) -- the majority of those points were acquired through Blu-ray purchases, while a select few were DVDs that never had Blu-ray counterparts released, movie tickets, and other promos. Been doing DMR since "The Jungle Book" was released on DVD in 2007 (and I made the jump to purchasing Disney Blu-rays in 2008).

It should be noted that you cannot enter multiples of the same title (in your case, "Toy Story 3"). Also, if you have any Disney Blu-rays, you cannot enter a code from the "DVD Only" version of that same title.

Good Luck!
