Entertainment books on sale for $15

[wendym]

Hi
Just a heads up that the entertainment book is now down to $15 and free shipping - they haven't charged me extra to ship to the UK. I booked the hard rock ($167 - far more than previous years)for oct so need the card.
I got an email but I am sure their website would have the same offer www.entertainment.com (at the moment it is coming up blank but hopefully it is a temporary thing.)

What other offers are generally included in the book? I would be interested in dining non-disney mainly, and publix supermarket.

Wow thats a great price, was going to get one at $25 definately going to get one now, although when fililng out the form it wont accept my telephone number, keeps saying i have to have 10 digits, think i must be putting it in wrong.

Any help would be great.

Thanks

Lisa,

Just ordered mine and I put in my tel. without the first '0' and with no gaps and it seemed happy!

That is a good price - hopefully should save a bundle on eating out!!

Hi

Just ordered mine. Had difficulty with the tel no. also, but as previously mentioned I missed out the 0 at the beginning of my no. and it all went through.

Wendym,

How do you use it to get discount at Hard Rock Hotel? I have booked Royal Pacific for one night in April and it's $249 per night!

[wendym]

You should be able to get it far cheaper. Ask for the entertainment rate or even the fanclub rate - on the universal forum (not the hotels one) there is a lovely lady TinkBarb who will mail you one for the postage. Ask for the rates for all the hotels as the royal pacific often gets booked up with conventions.

The Entertainment Book is well worth buying. We bought ours for $20 and used it to book the Entertainment rate at the Hard Rock Hotel - instead of $239 we got it for $134! Just ring them up and ask for the entertainment rate for all the hotels, that's what we did. Just remember to take your entertainment card with you as you'll need it on check-in

Julie,

We are booked at Portofino Bay for early April and unfortunately the Entertainment Rate & The Annual Pass Holders Rates are not available - I checked with the operator and these rates aren't available for any of the Universal Hotels from about April 4th - 15th, so we are stuck with paying full price rack rates at the moment!

[juliebro]

Thanks for clearing that up Richard. I hate missing out on a bargain - but at least I understand why now!

I've ordered the book/card anyway as I guess that I may use it at other places - and $15 is a big discount from the usual price.

Julie

 

[richard3330]

Yes Julie, it's very annoying to think that just a week or two before or after people are paying literally less than half of what we are!

It's great for other discounts like you said too though, especially if you need to hire a car or plan on eating outside of disney a lot

 

[onlyholly]

Apart from hotel and car hire discounts what other discounts are available in the Enertainment book ?

Thanks muchly !
Holly

 

[richard3330]

There are lots of restaurant discouts for the Orlando Area, including a $5 voucher for Planet Hollywood, Vouchers for Mini Golf, some of the smaller Orlando attractions such as Wonder Works etc. and some coupons for the big shopping malls. Airboat vouchers, dicoutn seaworld tickets, free universal $ coupons ..... lots and lots!

Richard

 

[onlyholly]

Can't wait for my book to arrive now !!

Holly

 

[wendym]

Just had an email to say mine has been shipped and they have only charged the $15 - hopefully it will turn up ok! Looked online and they even have offers for Ghiradelli in Downtown Disney!

Ohhhhh I am sooo disappointed. I just received my entertainment book and was extremely pleased with the benefits and discounts contained in it, but the coupons expire on 1 November 2004 in the 2004 book! and we dont leave until Christmas Day, so it is completely useless to me this year

Just thought I would mention it incase anyone else gets caught out like me. Seems I will need the 2005 book for my 2004 holiday
