I just got a Free DIning Pin for Dec/09

[nat1234]

I'm so jealous. No pin for me. I've signed up for the DVD. I've been on the web site pricing packages, even though I have one booked for November. What else do I have to do to have Disney honour me with a pin code, stand on my head. I'm pretty sure that isn't going to happen. Oh well, I've got my fingers crossed.

I can't believe we got a pin! I never get anything. We are going in October and I have been fishing around the Disney website, signing in at least once a week and ordering maps, dvds etc... maybe this is why they sent me one. I also applied for a DVC dvd for more info so this could be it too. Whatever the reason I am glad to have the pin, we will be booking tomorrow.

i was so excited! i jsut got my first pin....too bad were already booked!!! i wanted to go for our tenth wedding anny the 16th of october and with this pin its included. what a drag!!!

 

[amberg@eastlink.ca]

one thing i just noticed...no park hopping...its for one park per day....so if you booked then wanted to make you adr's and had to park hop you coudlnt.

You can always add the Park Hopper add-on to your tix.

Does anyone know if you can use this offer if you have an AP?
I got this PIN too. We're going in Aug with free dining and we were planning on upgrading to AP's, in which case I would DEFINITELY go again Dec for free dining, but I noticed it said with purchase of room and tickets.. Anyone know?

When we booked the 4/3 deal, we only had to buy a 1-day park ticket to be eligible. Rules may be different for free dining, but it's worth asking about.

We got the pin too -- and it's for the time of year when we would not usually be in WDW -- I think that may have something to do with who gets the offer.

I just got this pin today, my first one ever, too bad I just booked my trip yesterday for August, I am still getting free dining but if I had got the pin before I booked I would have went in Oct or Nov instead.

Call and have them rebook with this new discount. Disney does it all the time - no problem!

 

[spatulaqueen27]

hehe same here. Booked for mid august (the week before free dining starts). And I start School in Sept so I don't have the flexibility. Oh well, here's hoping for a new pin someday.

really? we booked through sears and our first installment was just paid. i think id have to cancel and rebook it all, altho it cant hurt to call my ta!

I've never dealt with Sears before - but Disney will do it if you had booked with them and CAA will do it if you had booked with them. So I would see no reason why Sears couldn't - I'd definitely make the call.

 

[amberg@eastlink.ca]

cant hurt to try. i know i asked before about upgrading after we booked and she said better sooner than later as it would be treated as a cancellation. have to discuss with dh first. hes supposed to be going to gagetown for another training weekend on our actual anny. no point in switching if they say no you cant go!

I just got the same pin this morning, we wanted to go in Jan/Feb for 10 days next year. Who knows with this offer maybe we can squeeze another one in, drive down and save the flight money. (a man can dream can't he)

With free dining being extended and all these pins makes me wonder what is coming for Jan/Feb. Last year 4/3, next year.....only Disney knows.

ME TOO!!! ME TOO!!! ME TOO!!!!

I got it last night.... I was dancing around the living room shouting " I got a pin, I got a pin" DH thougt I was nuts and DD(14) was rejoicing with me then said "what's a WDW pin again? "

So, the thing of it is: that a have booked a 2bd timeshare for the end of Oct, but now that I've got a PIN with free dining, I think I'd rather go the first of Dec. , even if I have to go SOLO, . (I guess I'll just Kijjii my Oct week-- unfortunaley that week is non-refundable)

So anyone think maybe WDW checked the Cdn Dis board, to see who to send the Pins too

Whoowhoooo, been waiting years for this!!!!!

 

[b-1]

I got the pin yesterday evening at 540 pm. And the dates are PERFECT. whoo hoo

 

[iluvwesties]

ME TOO!!! ME TOO!!! ME TOO!!!!

Whoowhoooo, been waiting years for this!!!!!

Yay MaMudduck, same for me too

Now to see if I can go with my DD

 

[squirrel]

I got the same PIN. I don't think I will be able to go again. Maybe if it was for the spring.

It's my first PIN also. I have been logging into the Disney website and pricing out trips and ordering the trip planning DVD.

I believe that you can just purchase a one day park ticket to make it a package and still get the free dining. If you have an AP, save the one day ticket for the next year - you can use it towards the renewal your AP if you want or add more days to it.

 

[DisneyCapers]

I also got that pin today!! First ever! I'm already booked in for Aug with Free Dining. What a tease!

Me too! At least I know they have my email now, I was beginning to wonder!

 

[bbrnca]

got mine today also..... DW will probably say yes to the offer for just the 2 of us.... we were thinking about going early Dec. for the Xmas party at MK... now with free dining even better chance....

 

[emmsmama]

Without the pin you can still get free dining from 8/22/09-10/3/09. The benefit from the PIN is that you may also be able to book a free dining pkg. from 10/2/09-12/17/09. Just wanted to make sure people were aware that you don't have to have a pin to access free dining, just to access the extra dates (I know most are aware of that, but some might not be ).

Just wanted to say we Canadians must have been jumping all over this deal! Between DH and I, we were doing some booking yesterday for family with the PIN code - and all the CMs were saying how many bookings had come in for late November/early December under the PIN deal. We were actually having some trouble getting rooms at the desired hotels, so limited availability was right. Two different CM's were cracking jokes it was like the Canadians were going to take over "the World".
