Dream FPs and Pins

[lucincia]

This week is our first trip during this special promotion period. We were not expecting to "win" anything, since it is a sweepstake.

But, so far, my DD8 and DD4 (crazy pin traders) have gotten at least half a dozen Tinkerbell pins that you get to keep one for yourself and one to give away from various CMs they trade with and we got Dream FP at EPCOT one day and Dream FP at DS the next. Great scrapbook materials!

Have they increased the frequency of "winners"?

No - you're just very good at being in the right place at the right time!

Right place is winning the DVC!

Exactly where and when did you get the Fastpasses?

We just got back from 11 days. We won on our last day since we rode Pooh twice watching the Dream team at the time enter the gift shop with a large bag. We saw dream teamers EVERYWHERE, but never won till the last day. We won dream lanyards and pins. We saw CM's with the tink pins but think they were mostly going to kids. I would not want the Fast passes since the lines were never long enough to need them excluding one or two afternoons but then we just fast passed the traditional way. One nice guy gave us his leftover fast pass on the way out of AK one day, so we had it for the afternoon.

Yeah, lines are not long enough now for Dream FPs. It's more scrapbooking purpose

I beg to differ on the lines. At AK, even the singles line on EE was almost 40 mins., and It's Tough to be a Bug was 90 mins.!! The safari was a good hour in standby. Sadly, the off season is over.

Actually we did EE today 5 times in 3 hours, 3 with standby and 2 with regular FPs. Our only problem was 60 min wait for Kali and that was our stupidity. We didnt use FP, it was middle of the day, and it was an AK evening EMH. The standby line clock said 30 minutes and we got suckered into it and was too stubborn to leave the line!

At MK, we did SM several times in the evening, with 5-15 min standby and used regular FPs when it is 20 or more minutes.

Not too bad.

We went to AK on Saturday and had a max of 15 minute waits. We were wven able to ride Kali twice without getting off. Later in the day there was a 30 minute wait for the Safari. The next fast pass time was for 30 minutes later so we got a fast pass and shopped rather than wait in line. We rode EE 2x, Kali 3x, the safari once, had a light lunch, sat and had a cup of tea, sat and shared a root beer float, did the animal trail, and shopped from 11-3. I thought that wasn't bad for 4 hours. What day did you go?

We did win pins and lanyards at Epcot on Sunday. The pins are really cute!
