I love credit cards so much! v2.0 (see first page for add'l details)

Since each passholder gets a magnet or gift after the visits I am willing to make it unpleasant. Last year our October trip was with my parents. For the fourth visit we drove to Epcot after finishing night at MK. Saturday night at Food and Wine with group of 7. It was a little scary! Still worth it though. The girls don’t care right now about things like a cutting board (or even really magnets) so I have a box for each of them that I am keeping their stuff for once they get older. Maybe kind of silly, but something I would have loved to get. I have the one I get and my husband gets to use and enjoy.

I love it!! I think I can fit it in this year! I am ending at BC rather than CR which was my issue last year. We would have either had to double back from MK on the party day/night or head into Epcot before departing on DME. We discussed and all agreed we would rather walk into MK and do 3 FP+ since our only MK time was MNSSHP. I think Minnie Mouse and a coaster will convince my family to do it. She is my mom's favorite and she will get more use from the coasters. I am going to make us take a bus from AK to YC/BC/BWI on our arrival night. Run through Epcot, and monorail back to CR. That will get us our 4th swipe (technically be our 1st) and we can pick her up on departure day after extra EMH in DHS and before Cape May Cafe breakfast (last seating around 10:45am).

One successful Serve load at WM from my debit to so I feel comfortable with the process. DH was with and he's on board with helping so getting him a card now.

Then a stop at Randall's to grab VGCs. I wish his Randalls acct had the offer on it as well.

I also thought it was a Nemo reference! The SWs pic with it threw me off, but I never EVER thought it was a drug reference LOL

I do like Star Wars, but I never saw the original movies until I was dating my SO. They are his favorite movies. I’m into the new movies. lol I’m epicvader on reddit.

I’m so jealous your DH will help. My SO is fine with me having the cards in his name, but will not load or buy a money order.

Sorry, but the new stuff sucks harder than the prequels.

Sams has an egc in $50 denomination. I just bought one the other day.

Yep. They just don't get down to $25 like BJs does. I just realized while I was typing the technicality that the $75 is really 3 $25 cards, so my nitpicky self just had to point it out

But I'd save up and then combine to go for the $50 online option. (Out of curiosity, did that ever show up in store? Used to be online only and the lowest in store was the $75 pack) I think @amalone1013 had a way to do it all online since I think you can still buy a WM GC with a WM GC - or maybe I'm wishful thinking.

The new stuff is way better than any of them. I haven’t made it through all the prequels. I have tried numerous times but I keep falling asleep.

I grew up with episodes 1-3 so those are my favorites

This is how my DH would be

Wishful thinking... I did do WM GC with WM GC to combine some into a bigger WM GC at self checkout, but its been a long time. I was using swagbucks VGCs to buy WM GCs online to get around the 2 Visa rule with Sam's. Lately I've had enough orders to do that I havent needed to combine GCs, I just put in separate orders to use them all.

I do like Nemo. I’m glad you didn’t think it was a drug reference. I swear it wasn’t it was just a random thing lol

Never did I think of a drug reference either. That's why I googled and asked, not even on my radar. I like the name!

I hurt my back this morning doing yard work. I hope it’s just a muscle strain. It wasn’t an actual injury where I fell or ran into something, I think I just overdid the weeding. So I decided to sit with the heating pad on my back and spiff up my churning spreadsheet. It’s looking much much better. Leaving for our DW trip Wednesday morning so I gotta heal up before then!

If it has anything to do with a disc, Ice and Advil, no heat. Think of it as a blow dryer on a bowl of jell-o. Hope you feel better soon. After doing too much yesterday I am flat on my back again.

Truth! I really didn't think it would get worse but it did. I'm not a big fan but I do strongly prefer the originals.

 

[amalone1013]

DH is off to Chicago next week. That will put him 3200 RRs shy of A list Preferred. Has anyone tried the SW trick for the Plat lately...?

Thank you! I was thinking of you today with extra empathy. I don’t THINK it’s a disc, I think it’s muscular/ligaments. Or it’s possible it could be a kidney stone since they run in my family unfortunately. Hope you feel better soon too!

I understood what you were saying! Just wanted to make sure others realized there is a $50 option. I use that option when I have $5’s and $10’s I need to use up. Never have seen $50 in the store!

4 - 6 originals are the best, then the new stuff and we can just forget the prequels ever happened

I am not obsessed with Star Wars. I have to honestly say I will probably be more excited visiting TSL than SWGE in WDW for years to come just because it is what I grew up with. My parents were never into it so I never saw any of them until Revenge of the Sith was about to come out. I watched them in order of release and finished with Episode III in theaters with friends in 2005. Episode I and II were absolutely painful to get through. I tried again later in life and just couldn't. LOL I can tolerate III. Maybe because it bridges the story? I only saw The Force Awakens from the new trilogy on HBO and it was ok. I didn't hate it, but I wasn't obsessed. It just seemed like A New Hope got recycled. I should probably finish the newer films before visiting SWGE.

Looked on my student loan's site for the address and found out that they only direct over payments with a slip of paper if sending a check, you can't just note it on the check memo. And since mine combines 2 loans and I always over pay a bit I'm sticking to paying it normally and not through plastiq. Hopefully SB keeps selling SB's and I'll do that. Even if it's an extra 99 cents and I get some back with goals and stuff it'll work itself out vs the fees there. I'll worry about it more when I'm back from WDW but I'll buy some while I"m going to keep my streak going.

While I agree I will also say do what feels better. I can have the same pain and sometimes I need heat and sometimes I need cold. My chiro would prefer I don't take anything because ice does the same as advil and I agree to an extent, it all depends. But if it's a muscle thing I've found neither advil or tylenol will help so I don't bother.

@Limes96 do light stretches when able to just to help with any stiffness. More of back back issues any more are my muscles, they live to fight with my spine over who's going to win the battle of where it should be

I guess HighAsAkite was already taken?

On Monday when ShopDisney was offering free shipping on all orders, I ordered the DVC tote bag. I love my Christmas Mickey tote bag I picked up at Mousegears a couple years ago - large and handy. The DVC items were also on sale and of course I paid with a discounted giftcards and used a mileage portal. The tote came today and it is just perfect - I wanted it from my cruise this month.

 

[CyndiLouWho]

As a Mom I would have been horrified also! Lol!

Eh. We were engaged already. I’m a pretty good judge of character. Of course my parents were shocked when we got engaged at Christmas and had met in June.

I prefer not to react to the posts that are fishing for them

Same.
