I will be there.

 

[lucas]

Great!

Several years ago we went to the Epcot event and then a few years after that we went to a pin event they had at MGM.

I'm looking forward to going again.

Most all of the Figment people will be there.

Whoa! Figment people!?

What am I missing and could you please fill me in?

 

[pixierella]

Oh how I wish. I'm dying to go but I can't do FL in summer time and my bank account will scream at me if I try to do Pin event and my regular trip. Too many pins, so little money...

I'll be there. I haven't missed one yet. I almost did this year though. My hubby isn't running as many runs with his trucking company. So we're feeling the financial bite. So it's gonna be pretty tight. So good thing for me there's not many pins I want. I'll mainly be going for the fun of seeing old friends, making new ones and doing some trading for some Pooh pins to add to my collection.

As for Figment at the event. What the poster meant was that there are alot of pins and framed sets with Figment. So the fans of Figment are quite happy, but will also be quite broke! LOL!!

If you want to look for me, I'm be the one wearing a Pooh T-shirt of some kind wearing Pooh ears and a denim vest covered with Pooh pins. And I'll pobably have my little Pooh bear with me and he'll have his pin vest on covered with tiny disney pins.

Blessings,
Winnie

With all those Figment items, I'm definitely there and my money will stay there! Besides, these days who needs to pay their mortgage!

 

[olbear]

Yupper! Daber is one who will be busted broke. A MAJOR Figment fan indeed!!
I'm looking forward to seeing you Daber!

Blessings,
Winnie

Agnes, glad to hear you'll be going. You are gonna love it!

Gotta think of something to wear to stand out. The first full day, I'll be in my WDW red shirt with the huge 71 on the front. BTW, that shirt was for the year WDW opened, NOT my age as one very funny CM asked me!

Any hoo, dh's lanyard stands out as it is loaded with the Mickey state pins that the Disney Store sold several years ago. My lanyard has all Christmas pins.

I can't wait. I am busy making shirts. However, this year I bought a red waiter's vest for my pins and realized you won't be albe to see my T-shirt DISigns . Bringing two kidlets with me (niece 14 years old and great niece 10 years old). It is the niece's 2nd time and she knows nothing about pin trading. It is the great-niece's 4th time (her dad used to be a CM & now he is a Major in the Army in VA, so they have been getting there at least once a year lately). Her sisters will be staying with Daddy & Mommy (my niece) in Saratoga Springs. We will be staying at BW DVC. She is just all that & a bag o chips as she is hanging out with a 14 year old and Aunt Penny said we could "close the parks" if they wanted to do that. I have a feeling I will be sleeping in my ECV while they are riding TOT, just one more time. Can't wait. Penny
