Counter-Solution: Declare AMEX dead to me once again and go back to getting a CIP and an AA Biz for both players every 90 days, HAHA!
MS is just so not my thing, lol!
How many table service meals do you plan on? Do you eat breakfast in the room?
Have you tried calling them? I know when chase travel had them they had to call Disney for me to add the dining plan as we had annual passes. Then I was able to use UR to pay for the dining plan which really saved since I used the CSR so I really spent less. Boy do I miss the days of using UR for disney
We just got back from a Saturday to Saturday stay and we spent about $1200 on food. That was for 2 adults and 2 kids (6 and 3). For table service we had: Snow White dinner, Teppan Edo, Bon Voyage Breakfast, Ale & Compass lounge, Jungle Skipper Canteen, Spice Road Table. We did a few quick service lunches/dinners, a refillable popcorn bucket, and a few dole whips. We ordered groceries from Amazon Prime Now and had most breakfasts in the room, and a couple of lunches in the room as well.
If the temporary wall isn't up, you'd be able to get to the lounge pretty easily. You'd take the tram from the SWA gates to the terminal and then walk over to the tram going to gates 70-90 I believe. I'm just not sure what time the lounge is open until or if they allow you in upon arrival. We stayed at the airport Hyatt last week after a 9pm arrival and loved it - so convenient!
1. My preferred business is my nannying. I do it every summer and make a decent pay from it (almost as much as subbing). Dh’s preferred business is our band. Both of these will no longer exist after we move but I’m sure we’ll come up with something new. I’ve talked to Dh about maybe tutoring so that could be one. I also could teach drum lessons so lots of choices.How about a fun Tuesday exercise for the greatest group on the DIS...
We often advocate for biz cards and I have my token list of “businesses” that I share - you know the list, selling on eBay, rental real estate, teaching piano, tutoring, babysitting, consulting, etc.
I know we all already have our go-to “businesses” established now, but what if our awesome group of DISchurners do this:
This could be somewhat interesting for people who are on the fence about biz cards
- Share what your preferred business is currently for credit card apps (and/or what you’ve used often in the past)
- Think of one other legitimate way(s) you earned some amount of money in the last year that could be considered a “business”
I’m interested to see what creative legitimate sources of money our group has!
EDIT: repeats are ok. Original answers are awesome but don’t feel like you need a “new” answer to participate! Repeats could actually be cool to see how many of us have the same potential “business” opportunities.
) Even terrible business models, in my case, or generously philanthropic ones spend money and generate swipe fees. Folks should keep that in mind when thinking about if their side hustle is "big enough" to qualify - you don't have to actually profit from it to count (and many real businesses don't either).
LOL... Well to be honest I closed my Arrival plus a few months ago and have not used my Barclay Aviator or Jetblue Personal past the MSR. I guess I just lucked out and got a good rep. She picked up on the first ring and was in a good mood.
I love my spreadsheets and try to average what I will spend based on ADR/QS plans. I budget for mugs, $50 per person for snacks, and either look up the average price per plate at a restaurant or if I know we have been there before I will calculate exact menu items we will order. I got used to this from multiple attempts at seeing if a dining plan would save me money compared to TiW and it never wins for my travel group. Things can obviously change, but I have to say I am usually within $100 if we do not completely cut out a meal. If I have extra GC $$ it just goes to merchandise, activities, or the next room deposit.
I see ours in the mail today. Will have to see what they say...
