Last night i saw costumes for 16.99. When i tried to add Aurora size Small it kept showing up at 24.99, all other sizes were 16.99. The Buzz was 16.99. I thought i'd just call this morning. However now they are all at 24.99. When i called i was told too bad.

I should have ordered it and exchanged the size later but i didn't even think of that. I can't believe they won't honor the price.
 
I am sad today too. I saw the Belle Deluxe costume was $49.99 and I paid $84 for it in August. I was going to call this am for the adjustment, but today is $59.99. I still am getting a refund, but it is $10 less than it would have been yesterday.
 
I ordered at 1 AM this morning, and the price was still 16.99 for Cinderella. I just read this post, and saw they changed it to 24.99. While I am glad I ordered before they raised the price, I still feel bad for everyone else who would have ordered this morning. I have already ordered waaaayyyy too much, and especially too many costumes. I had just decided to get the Evil Queen costume for myself (feeling a little self conscious about the Minnie I ordered, but haven't received yet), and was less than thrilled to pay shipping of 6.50-8.50 just for that, so I threw in Cindy and her crown. I paid 8.50 shipping for all three items, and am getting the free light wand, so the 60+ total (after the Disney Visa 25% off, which also came off the crown) is not so bad.
 
that made my decision easy enough, LOL....I was on the fence about ordering a "spare" Aurora costume, to have, just in case...LOL

I did wonder why they had the prices so low on Halloween costumes in mid-September, though!

Frannn,

I received my Minnie costume and I am less than thrilled with it. The quality isn't that bad but it is not the most flattering of costumes :sad2: I am a size 12/14 and it makes me look huge. This is definately another one for the ebay pile!

Let me know what you think of the evil queen as I was thinking of ordering that one instead :)
 
Am I mad at myself for not ordering Pocahontas last night!! I wanted to make sure I had final "approval" from my daughter because she's been going back and forth on what she wanted to be. Showed it to her in the catalogue last night and she says okay. Got kind of busy and thought I'd just order it from work today. WRONG. I guess 8 bucks isn't that big of a difference but it really bugs me when stuff like that happens to me.
 
If I were the OP, I think I would plead my case with a supervisor or via email. Since it appears there was a web problem that kept you from completing your order, I would expect most companies to allow you to place the order as originally priced. When you politely make it clear that they are losing the order because of this snafu, the only reasonable response would be to help you complete the order at the discounted price.

I had the same problem, I wanted a size small and it would not come up $16.99. I emailed them, and they emailed back saying, yes it was our mistake, but it doesn't matter as the costume is back up to $24.99 now, sorry! I wasn't to happy! :confused3
 
I ordered 12 costumes at 1/2 price, but didn't notice my 49.99 Belle wasn't added to the total. When I went back to order it I noticed the price increase, and my visa 25% discount can't be used again either. :badpc: :badpc: :badpc:

Is it a true to size 12/14? I'm more of a 16 and was thinking about getting Minnie for myself. Although I haven't been to a Halloween party in ages, so I have no idea if I'd wear it. But I'm still thinking about it. (Pretty much already huge, so it wouldn't make much difference. :rotfl: )

It runs a little big so I think you would be ok. Although the decision is up to you, I would seriously advise against this costume for anyone over a size 4 or 6. It really isn't flattering especially to the lower region.
 
jeepgirl30,

You are not alone. I am sad too and been sad for a few days now. I had the Cinderalla and the Aruora in my basket. I also want size small of the Aurora and noticed that it was 24.99. So I put it in my bakset thinking that it will drop to 16.99 once they find out their mistake. I guess I will wait again to see if the price ever drops again.
 
So glad I ordered the tinkerbell for DD 15months. I got it for 12.49 and then 25% off of that. I actually ordered the 18 and 24 months to see which one fits. they turned out to be about 10.00 each.
