I was hoping someone could describe what the box looks like so if the CMs cant find it under your name, you could describe it. When I started it, it wa a green shoe box with mickey heads glued to it. Is it the same? If not what does it look like now. We leave in 4 weeks and 2 days, cant wait!!

We're planning on being at POR from 5/22 - 5/29 this year and would like to be part of the PIF swap. It's my first time back to WDW for 12 years and will be the first time staying onsite, and I'm really excited.

This is similar to the fish extender gift exchange we did on DCL last year, but much simpler. I love finding out about special things like this on these boards!

We just got back from our Disney trip & had a ball. We passed the box onto the next family in line and left it with Luggage Services, having their assurance the box would reach its intended destination.

This box is recently new again, I believe. I think we were the 2nd or 3rd family to receive it. Physically, it is a brown cardboard box about 12" x 12" by 8" tall. It's considerably larger than a shoebox. It is NOT decorated. Pretty plain indeed.

It had some good maps in it, a coffee mug, some laundry detergent, hand sanitizer, a beer, some hot chocolate and a few other things I can't recall.

We added a number of makeup & lotion samples, shampoo, hand wipes. A bunch of drink boxes, some bottles of water, bandaids, 2 adult ponchos etc.

I think I left my tape with it, or at least I meant to.
Fun to participate. My kids were excited there was a box waiting for us upon arrival.

Hope it stays on & others get to enjoy.
Cheers!

When the time comes, just swap your info w/ the swappers before & after you.

Thanks, cdnmomof2!! Glad it went well & thanks for the description of the box!!

If anyone wants to add some personal touches to the outside, you are more than welcome! Just report back with what you did so the swappers know what the box looks like.

We have decided to move to POP since the trip head count keeps growing. Thanks for letting me join but please take me off the Port Orleans Pay It Forward List.

We just got back tonite from POFQ....had a wonderful trip. The weather was a little chilly but didn't ruin anything for us! We arrived last Sunday and the box was delivered to my room with our luggage. It WAS a plain brown box, but my son decorated it with DVC stickers they give out in the lobby area. We did use one or two things in the box...it wa exciting to get it! I'm not going to tell what I left....better to be surprised....BUT I would make a suggestion to someone who is getting the box soon.....a great thing to put in would be a roll of packing tape and a Sharpie to make a label for it.

I really enjoyed participating in the swap...hope everyone has fun!
Thanks!

We just returned from our magical POFQ trip.

Thanks for the great box! My son was very happy to look inside, my hubby couldn't understand how it worked! We enjoyed items from the box and left MANY more inside it. Just a heads up to the next people- there are lots of oatmeals and water flavoring packets in the box.
Enjoy!
