Ok, so I picked our dates for '09 ... Feb. 2-12 ... Planned to call in the morning to see if RPC is available ... and then I read here on the DIS that because the Superbowl is in Tampa on Feb. 1, the NFL has blocks of rooms booked at the GF and have special things planned for the week before and after the Superbowl!!! Arrr! Back to the drawing board, it seems ...

Kelly, do you mean the ipod Col got? He is keeping it and rubbing it in everybodies faces. It is super small and thin and sleek.

Hey...don't get a shuffle. Get the nano. Did you look at overstock.com. I bought a 80 video one fro them but it didn't work so they wre awesome about returning it. Look there. You can get a better one for a better price. Even refurbished Apple will give you a year warranty and replace it if needed. Shuffles are lame - more for kids.

Andrea, we've been at WDW MANY times before, during and just after the Superbowl....OK..dumb butt question - is the SB always in Tampa?? If so, you won't notice a whole lotta difference because we never did.

hey princesses thanks for the shoebuy tip!!

I just went on and they are having a Memorial Day sale TODAY....20% off and free shipping!

I bought a great pair of my favorite Saucony tennies and a pair of mary Jane crocs for our trip....I hate Crocs, but these are kinda cute in a fun color.

So anybody else out there.....go to Shoebuy for great prices!!!! TODAY!

CHan

Glad you found some things! I went looking for some shoes for me but instead found a couple pairs for DD. I haven't checked out yet so I'm going to look again for myself tommorow!

I don't care for Crocs either but for some reason II'll wear them to Disney!

I don't wear them regularly at home, but I bought a mary jane style pair for my last Disney trip and whole them the whole time. They were very comfy.

I know crazy huh?

DD wanted me to get some Mickey ones like hers, so I was a sucker and did it. I am a flip flop girl and I hate the way crocs look - my foot is already huge, I don't need Crocs to make them even bigger! Even the flip flop ones make your feet look bigger,IMHO.

I was surprised at how comfortable they were, but I still wore my flip flops a lot! Everybody has Crocs at Disney so I didn't feel like a complete freak wearing them there. DD has outgrown hers so I think I can get out of wearing them this year!

 

[Alicnwondrln]

I love crocs

 

[lovemy2boys]

My boys pretty much only wear Crocs in the summer since they can put them on themselves.... I can't wear them though, they make my feet look huge! (I'm a size 9)

 

[triplefigs]

I love my Crocs and have 5 pairs and wear them all the time. I just got Univ of Alabama flip flop Crocs and wore them all over WDW. I will buy some new ones for this fall for nursing that are closed toes. I'll have quite the collection. Have a great Memorial Day!

I hate the way they look for me, too. But, before our last trip BF got a pair (he ended up not likeing them, the thing that holds the strap on on the side rubbed him funny) and told me I should get some too. I was like NO way, but he convinced me to buy a pair of the Cleos (they sort of look like sandles). I was just going to switch them out with my tennis shoes but ended up wearing them almost the whole time because they were so comfy and they looked alright too

good morning gals.

On the croc thing....well I found some croc flip flops at 6pm.com for $20 so I bought them...the light blue and pearl....they look awful on me, (DORK) but they are comfy. Havne't tried them at WDW yet but I';m bringing them in July. I do have brown mary janes that i;ve worn before & liked them. If anybody is interested 6pm dot com has many styles of crocs for $20.

I have a huge foot...I wear size 11!! So imagine me BOZO in my dumb crocs. I bought the sea foam Mary Janes this time hopefully they will match my summer clothes. I have lilac Keen Newport H2s thatn I LOVE..didn't bring thsoe Easter either. I wore my Mushes and got lower back pain & stiff ness so I am hoping Crocs and Keens will be better today.

I am addicted to Jibbitz. That's my weakness. I have a drawer full - NOT KIDDING - and they sit there becuse I don't wear Crocs. My girls have tons too (from me )

Have a great day! Talk to ya soon I'm sure.

BK would love the HM. Her old ones are too small. Off to shop!

 

[arbonnette]

Just my two cents about the crocs ... I really only wear them at the beach and at Disney World. I have the seafoam mary janes too, Channing! I wore them the whole trip (with the no-show type athletic socks! ) in Feb and my feet felt great!
I will bring them again on my next trip! I don't have any jibbitz, but want some! Hannah has tons as well.

I am thinking about ordering some of the Adara style for the summer. We go to the beach in AL a lot, and I like to were them there and save my "good" flip flops for dressing up.

Has anyone worn Volatile flip flops? They are super popular here and really comfy. A bit dressier than more basic rubber ones!

I hope everyone had a great Memorial Day!
