I am doing some last minute packing for my trip to Disney on TUESDAY! :cool1: I have a few questions that I am hoping you can help me with . . .

~ How much is customary to tip mousekeeping? This is our first time staying onsite. Is this done daily, or at the end of our stay? We are staying at Pop.

~ Do you know how much it costs to do Laundry? Do they have change machines, or do you have to bring your quarters?

~ Do you know if you are allowed to fly with a disposable razor in a carry on? I do NOT want to get jacked up in the airport! :rotfl2:


~ Do you know where I can buy Body Glide (to help with chaffing). If I were to go to Walmart, what department would it be in?

~ Finally, I have been looking to buy the waterbottle fans but have not had much luck finding them- have any of you found them recently, and if so, what department of the store you found them.

Thank you so much! I admit, some of these questions are quite random, but I know you can help! You all are a WEALTH of knowledge! :wizard:
 
It is customary to tip housekeeping between 3-5 per day based on how many people are in the room. You should tip every day since you won't have the same housekeeper all the time.

I forget how much laundry costs but I know they have change machines. You can also buy overpriced detergent in there.

I am not sure about the razor. I would put in the checked luggage since it is a blade and their rules now border on stupid.

I am not sure if you can buy Body Glide at Walmart. I know you can get it at sports stores. I would check the sports section. But probably Dicks or Academy Sports.

I have not seen the waterbottle fans yet this year. Check your seasonal stuff and also over by the fans. Walmart likes to keep them over there.

Hope you have a great trip!
 
I just saw the waterbottle fans the other day at Walmart. They were in the same aisle as the fan and air conditioners were.
 
Hi,
I didn't think about tipping daily. How dumb of me. I left a $20 for 5 days.

I did do laundry and if I could, I wish I would have brought my own soap and stuff. The soap, bleach, and softener cost $1 each per load.

The laundry machines cost $2 a load. The dryers seemed to go on forever which was nice, even if you stopped the machine to check it.

I was POR.

Good luck and have a fun trip!

~ How much is customary to tip mousekeeping? This is our first time staying onsite. Is this done daily, or at the end of our stay? We are staying at Pop. We usually tip $5.00 per day, we're a family of three, and we leave the room relatively clean each morning. just beds to be made and wet towels on the bathroom floor.

~ Do you know how much it costs to do Laundry? Do they have change machines, or do you have to bring your quarters? I believe it's $2.00 per machine, but i could be wrong, i've only done laundry at pop once. if you can find single packets of detergent and fabric softener, take them! the prices at the pop laundry are OUTRAGEOUS!

~ Do you know if you are allowed to fly with a disposable razor in a carry on? I do NOT want to get jacked up in the airport! :rotfl2: sorry, we drive, can't help with this one.

~ Do you know where I can buy Body Glide (to help with chaffing). If I were to go to Walmart, what department would it be in? you won't find bodyglide at walmart. you MIGHT be able to find it at a sporting goods store, but i got mine at a bicycle shop. now, i order it online from drugstore.com.

~ Finally, I have been looking to buy the waterbottle fans but have not had much luck finding them- have any of you found them recently, and if so, what department of the store you found them. the only time i've seen these at wal-mart, they were selling for $2.00 on the clearance aisle.

Thank you so much! I admit, some of these questions are quite random, but I know you can help! You all are a WEALTH of knowledge! :wizard:

Hope this helps! enjoy your trip!

$3-5 per day, daily.

$2.00 (I think) - They do have change machines, and soap is only $1.00. While you're at Walmart you could pick up some Purex 3-in-1 sheets to take with you.

~ Do you know if you are allowed to fly with a disposable razor in a carry on? I do NOT want to get jacked up in the airport!

I always do. Haven't had any problems.

~ Do you know where I can buy Body Glide (to help with chaffing). If I were to go to Walmart, what department would it be in?

It will be with the Band-aids. It's called Blister Block.

~ Finally, I have been looking to buy the waterbottle fans but have not had much luck finding them- have any of you found them recently, and if so, what department of the store you found them.

Walmart has them on the aisle with the fans.

Enjoy your Trip!
