How many days before departure did your yellow ME tags arrive?

Hi-
We are leaving in a few weeks and still haven't seen any ME tags. I know that I may not get them until the day before we leave (or not at all ), but I'd like to know when you all received yours. I gave my flight into to Disney about a month ago. Thanks!

I think the official word from Disney is they get sent out 21 days prior to departure, although I've read here of others getting them sooner.

I received mine the day before I left, but that was back in early May when there were initial problems.

Keep in mind that if you booked through a travel agent the DME booklet will be sent to the TA and not directly to you. I felt like strangling my TA (actually, my mother-in-law's TA) when I received my DME stuff from her by REGULAR MAIL (her office is 150 miles from my home) even though it says in the materials from WDTC that they sent it to her by FedEx.

Obviously, you want to have the tags, but if you never get them you'll still be fine using DME and will still have a magical experience.

We are leaving on Sept. 8 and finally called to request the tags. Our flight info had been lost, so the original tags weren't sent. They fixed the problem and we received our tags yesterday. So we got our about 10-11 before our departure.

We got ours about 3 weeks before our trip!

I got ours this past Saturday (8/27/05) exactly 21 days before we leave. Back in May, I didn't get them until four days before I left.
