Ever picked up hoppers at Disney Will-Call?

On the Disney site, they offer the option of picking up your pre-purchased hoppers at the parks rather than paying the $3 s/h charges to get them mailed to you. This sounded like a good deal to me since it saves you $$ and you don't have to worry about your pass not arriving in time or at all, or forgetting to pack it, etc. Just wondering if anyone had used this option and how it worked out? It says all you need to do is go to the will-call desk at any park and present a photo ID along w/your confirmation #.

I used the will call window last year--it was very easy to do! I went right up to the ticket window at the International Gateway with my receipt and picture ID and picked up our passes

Thanks! I will definitely try it now!

I was wondering what the "Will Call" window was for. I just purchase mine at the Disney store closest to me.

We did this last year and I would definitely recommend it! It was wonderful, no worrying about losing passes. I ordered them online about 2-3 weeks before our trip. Our first day we just hopped the first theme park bus that came along (MK) and went to the Guest Services window. No wait, and in 5 minutes we were on our way with our passes.
You can only pick them up at Guest Services at the 4 theme parks though, not at the hotel. I did ask when we checked in just in case.

We did this on our recent trip just a couple of weeks ago. I had ordered the tickets too late for them to be shipped to us, and the CM suggested that I just pick them up at the Will Call window.
She gave me a number (actually a combination of numbers and letters) to use to pick them up and I needed picture ID. We did have a little bit of a problem, but only because the number was very long and had several O's and zeroes in it. When the CM read the number to me when I ordered the tickets and I repeated it back, she said "Donald" for D, etc. but on the zeroes and O's she just said "O." When I got to the window the castmember at first told me it wasn't a valid number, that they didn't have numbers anything like that. He said (in a polite way) that that could not be the number I had been given. I assured him that it was, and that since we had spent over $2,000 on the tickets, I knew he would be able to find them, which he did, by searching by my name. I would definitely do it this way again, I would just be more careful about making sure I knew exactly what the number was. When we read zeroes and O's they may look the same, but computers definitely know the difference!

I picked my ticket up Will-Call last year. They were even the "Canadian Special deal" tickets. I booked them through CRO, and they connected/cross referenced them with my reservation number (just so, in the computer system there was more than one way to track it) and they gave me a confirmation ticket #. I pickup them up at the Epcot ticket window, because it's the least busy. Showed my ID...tickets in hand and away we went!
