It's all about the shopping... with Wigd and Shocker

[wigdoutdismom]

I had to go back and see what I was accused of. Yes - I am such a FB loser! OK - I know I keep making excuses but maybe when I get my new phone in March and I have to pay for the data package - well then perhaps I will feel inclined to FB.

Ok - moving on - update please!

We really need you on FB! It's such a great way to keep up!

Must resist the pressure.............

I figure if I join FB I'll never get anything done, Don already gives me grief about the amount of time I spend on the DIS, I can't imagine adding another addiction to the mix!

Mary Ellen, we must support each other in this - if you join I'll almost HAVE to, I'll be the last person alive without a FB account







Oh my gosh, I hear ya on this one! I had always thought that once Justin started high school sports (instead of youth league), my life would slow down a little. HA! I had NO IDEA how much volunteering I would be doing for the booster clubs, and it's always the same small group of people who do everything too Oh well, when I quit working it was so that I could be more involved in the boys activities - I asked for this!

Michelle, we NEED you on FB. I know it's a bit addicting but you wouldn't believe the way you can keep up with folks!
The kids sports can really fill up your time. I know how busy you are with both boys....
Whew!

about both the Epcot inferno and being mean!

Do your students know where you go on vacation so often? They have got to be soooooooo jealous being that it's nearly every kid's dream to go to WDW!

My students do know where I go and they beg me to take them along.
I wish I could....

Just wanted to say I saw some of Anita's shopping first hand today and that woman has great taste!!!!!

Now Jen, are you teasing them?

 

[pooh'smate]

I went to my TJ Maxx here in Omaha and they didn't have anything. I went to Marshall's (owned by the same company) and they had a hard suitcase that was blue and then had mickey heads all over it. I would have bought it except that it was $99 and I am saving my money for a D&B bag when we go.

Unless it was a full sized bag and not a carry-on size, I don't think I would have paid $99 for it either. Do you have a D&B picked out?

Me tease NEVER I'm an angel LOL!!!!

Hmmm....I may just have to stop at TJ Maxx though with all those pictures! This thread may be dangerous to my budget!

It was a full sized one. I have looked and looked online and can't find a picture of it. I like the balloon ones, but I want to see them in person before I make up my mind.

Did you see the new Vera Bradley designs and bags? The Carry It All Wristlet in Barcelona is calling my name!

 

[uncw89]

I went to my TJ Maxx last weekend and there wasn't a mickey suitcase to be found They are cute!

Cute Disney luggage

They are cute! and I don't really need them but...
The small one is small.I just have to figure what I can use it for.

Uhhhh, yes you.

I plan on helping you ride Tower of Terror.
Connor will not be disappointed this trip.

Michael and I rode it last weekend and it was fun! It was better than I remembered it. It's been several years since we rode it!

I hope you manage to make it down for NYE!
Just get here when you can and I'll do the same thing!

I'm sure I'll have plenty of hecklers. See below.

I really like the balloon D&B. Didn't buy one but liked it!
When you get your new Vera's be sure to show us!

I like the black balloon one. They have a smaller one on Disney shopping that is cute, that I haven't seen at the parks. I looked!


Hey burly!

Hi Janell, what's better? Shopping, Disney and Christmas? So glad you are here!

Marc just put them on tonight. I don't think he did them one by one, but they did have to go onto the computer first. If you have photobucket on your phone you don't have to do that.

I have photobucket on my phone, but I've just been emailing them from my phone to photobucket. Thanks for the tip!


I do know how it is to fall behind on a trip report. My July TR......
Yes, anytime you get a pack of kids together it's "where the wild things are".

Barbara, you have the best excuse ever! Welcome home and glad you are here!

Oh we are the best shopping buddies around!!!

LOL Tracy, let's coax them over to the "dark side".

Heckler.

Can this count an a shopping update?
I need to go back to TJ Maxx!
I love those bags!!!

Sure, it's shopping!


I haven't been to our west store but I feel a visit coming tomorrow.

Very cute!

Can't wait to see what you bought on your trip!

 

[2xcited2sleep]

You started! Heading back to catch up. Love the title!!

Oh yes, you tease!
Please do a TJ Maxx update! I know you have a full day planned today as you get ready for your trip! I plan to get there today after I get this TR under way!

It was a full sized one. I have looked and looked online and can't find a picture of it. I like the balloon ones, but I want to see them in person before I make up my mind.

I would have to take a serious look at it if it were a full sized bag. The weight would be the only thing that would hold me back. My bags are too heavy now when they are empty...

Did you see the new Vera Bradley designs and bags? The Carry It All Wristlet in Barcelona is calling my name!

I looked it up and it is very cute! Not sure what I would do with it though, I'm a hipster girl. I need my stuff!

They are cute! and I don't really need them but...
The small one is small.I just have to figure what I can use it for.



Can't wait to see what you bought on your trip!

Hmmmm, can't decide if I'm going to show the goods first or not.
Probably not!

You started! Heading back to catch up. Love the title!!

Yay!!! Christine is here!!!

 

[Mndisneygirl]

My students do know where I go and they beg me to take them along.
I wish I could....

That's funny, when we go, my kids' teachers are jealous and beg us to take them along!!


When I got my D&B hipster type bag, they had a special online that I could buy the balloon pattern cosmetic bag for $15. Yup, I got it!!! I haven't used it yet, I think I'll save it for our trip. I think that special might still be running now. I'm just sayin...

I've got my eye on the cruise ship D&B designs now. I've heard that at least on the preview cruises, they didn't have much that specifically said Disney Dream, so I might have to find something else to buy! Maybe a larger D&B...

 

[wigdoutdismom]

It was an early morning flight that took us to Disney. Typically we would run to make our connection in Atlanta but not today. We had a layover. A BIG one. So we had breakfast and pixie dusted a couple of troops that were traveling and eating near us. Such a small way to thank them for what they were doing for us all! We left before they got the surprise...
Headed to our gate and waited to take off.

When we landed we made our way to a new place that was not ME it was Alamo rental car!

With our GPS in hand off we went and before we knew it here we were!

It was not our typical early arrival so our villa was ready, we hurried up, bags in hand, dropped them off then drove to the Poly, parked and hopped on the monorail so we could get to our dinner ADR...

We were a little late for our ADR at LTT so we rushed in that direction. So pictures on the way....
We walked in and I explained that we had just arrived to Florida and apologized for our tardiness expecting the typical Disney graciousness. WRONG! The CM that checked us in was rude. She told us that we would just have to wait until they had something available. So we sat.
They called us immediately.

Here's what we had.
The typical evening fare....

[/COLOR][/COLOR][/SIZE]

Elena uncw89, John and Michael were eating at LTT around the same time as us and we saw them come in....
It seems that John spied us too!
Elena and Michael came over and said hi!

DIS friends turned REAL friends!!!!

Dessert came...

After we finished up our apple crisp alamode I spent a little more time visiting with Elena and fam while they waited for their food. We were hoping she could hang around in the park after dinner while her guys went back.
The problem?
She didn't have a ticket for the party....
She would text us.
Bundling up, we made out way out into the chilly damp night.

I've a saver too. Like to have that special occasion to use the bag or piece of clothing!
If you decide to get the cruise bag, be sure to get it early in the cruise, they will get picked over. Ask to see them all. Some have better placement of the ship, characters and such....
I did see that offer.
I can't decide what or if I'm needing a bag right now.

 

[MegansMom]

Sorry about the rudeness, but the dinner looks yummy as usual!!! What a fun DISmeet! Can't wait to hear more!

 

[Native NYer]

Rude CMs, or rude people for that matter, just stink. I'm glad it didn't ruin your meal and you were seated quickly.

A DIS meet and dinner sound perfect

 

[2xcited2sleep]

I can't believe the CM was rude to you! That's too bad. I have to confess that I'm not a huge fan of LTT. I'm really looking forward to the new sit down restaurant in Fantasyland as another option in the MK!

 

[sharonW]

Brought back memories of our nov trip and dinning at LTT
Your pics are great but the food doesn't taste as good as
they look in your pics, my opinion of course!!

 

[Mndisneygirl]

Funny how the CM was rude and for no reason - you were seated right away anyhow! What a waste of energy to be rude like that. What was she trying to prove?

Thanks for the tip on the bag shopping! I will make sure to check before buying! I am really hoping to find some things that say Dream on them.

 

[micandminforever]

The pictures of the food at LTT looked so yummy. We have reservations there in March I can't wait. Do they still announce you by state when you are called?

 

[manntra]

That was so kind of you to buy the troops breakfast A wonderful gesture
Boo to the rude CM but happy you were seated promptly
I have never eaten there
Looking forward to your car rental adventures!!
