January 2008 Code Watch

Oh! can I subscribe to getting the discount codes too?

Not sure if I am understanding your question correctly, a little brain dead today but here it goes... you are now "subscribed" to this topic. When discounts become available, someone will post them on here. so you will know about them!!!!

There is also the discount to "subscribe" to TGM. You get that by the link on the top of the DIS pages.

Hope that helps. Also, disney sends out codes to certain people randomly. Those in the know say to make sure that everything "Disney" has your information. Disney websites, Disney Visa, Request a planning DVD... this may improve your chances at getting an even better code. BUT... this is totally random and more like winning the lottery! So... just stick around here and you'll be as informed as can be!

ok question, what is "wonderful Weeks"????

Wonderful Weeks are times when Disney considers it to be smaller crowds. DM and I went in March during one of these weeks, and it was great, a really slow time! This year's weeks are posted on the WDW website.

Oh My!

There is so much that I DON"T know!

You are definately not brain dead............I am so far out of the loop that I am making you question your sanity.

I think you will be seeing a bit of me around here. Apparently I am totally unprepared......BUT I feel the need to prepare! I can understand the addicition now.

Believe me when I say my sanity is always in question


But welcome to our group. Do you know when in January you are planning on visiting?

Subscribing to this thread as well....plans are sometimes January to Feb 2008. Thanks to all you experienced WDWers for sharing your knowledge! It will be an enormous help to me as this will be our first trip to WDW.

We will be going just after the marathon. Hopefully the crowds will gone and the discount(s) will be generous. LOL!

That should be a quiet time to go! This past January, on the Wed. after the Marathon, my family won the Dream Fast Passes at MK. We really didn't need them. It was so quiet that most fast pass lines weren't even open! (They still opened them for us though!!! That was nice)

This year the Marathon is a week later, so we will be there the week leading up to the marathon. Oh well. even during the marathon the crowds weren't bad!

 

[stitchsfourkids]

we too are going the week leading up to marathon. hoping for a quiet start to our new year with few lines and great weather

Well, we found good airfare so we were able to firm up our dates. We will be there Jan 16-22. Has anyone been there over MLK day before? Were the crowds a lot heavier? Right now we are in the all star family suites, I would love a good code to upgrade though!

When exactly is the marathon in '08? Is that usually a black out date for codes?

The marathon is January 12/13, 2008. I don't know the answer about the codes...do they traditionally not offer codes during an event like this? New at this so don't know, but if they offer codes during the summer when I'd think they could fill up without codes, why wouldn't they offer codes for lesser occasions?

...the discount for January last year? Was it only a ticket upgrade??

 

[Luv2Roam]

Usually January is Value Season, so costs less anyway. That was the case when we use to come here in January.

Well, it was this year (Jan. 2007). It was get a park hopper and more for the base ticket price. Better than nothing!
