Shelly, you are just an answer machine today!

Hey I just noticed! We are on Page 100! In less than 2 weeks! Seriously, if we keep going at this rate we will be onto PART III by Halloween! Part IV before Christmas! Will we even need a part V? Perhaps for those of us who are going nearer to the end of the month!

What a Talkative bunch that we are LOL!!! We are definitely going to be moving to a new thread sooner than later LOL

Yeah, I've received two of those emails so far. And my Best friend-I-travel-to-Disney-with (as opposed to the best friend who's a stepdad to 3!) has received one. She's, unfortunately, going on a business trip to South Africa soon (!!!) and my boss won't let me take time off in December (...and I work in academia!) so we get these emails and can't do anything with them. Very sad face!

Is there a special way to get these codes or is it completely random??? Just curious!!

Shelly, you are just an answer machine today!

She is simply wonderful!! I appreciate all the guidance she gives!!!!

 

[Momof2Disneyboys]

Thank you! I'll check it out after I pick up DDs from school and bring DD9 back for basketball practice an hour later, but before DD6 has gymnastics! *pant, pant*

Have a fun afternoon!

Hey Shelly, I have a Disney Visa question and you seem like the one who would have the answer? I don't have a Disney Visa, but I've been thinking more and more about it just because of the code and what not. What is the rate between rewards dollars and dollars spent. Hubby and I have an Alaska Airline card and we get 1 mile per dollar spent? So how do these Rewards work for Visa?

It's $1 for every $100 you spend. We charge all of our groceries and gas (which is a lot since DH commutes to work)etc., you know, things we would have to buy anyway, and then we pay it off every month and earn reward dollars in the process!

You ladies are so kind!

I should be able to answer the Disney Visa question, but I can't. I've had one for about 4 or 5 yrs, but we haven't used it much lately. We had TONS of reward dollars on our last trip. We used it for everything and had to pay hardly anything out of pocket.

Sometimes they are random. Sometimes they come out to all Disney Visa cardholders.

WOW 100 pages in like 2 weeks!!

We sure are a talkative bunch! I'm going to need this thread right up until the moment I get on my plane!

Hey, peeps, can you imagine what our thread will look like in JANUARY???? The flurry of activity! The sharing of the FUN! Oh, I can.not.wait!!!!

I was posting the same thought as you at the same time!!

You know what they say - great minds think alike!

Yep! We are a fun bunch are we not? Love it!

Yep, looks like they have Hanna Montana, Tinkerbell, Ariel, Enchanted, HSM, etc. http://digiblue.com/disney/cameras/pixclick/index.html#

Cool! Gotta check that out! My DD7 loves to take pics!

Thank you!! It is something to think about! My Hubby and I are like that we put the groceries and other household items on our airline card and have heard a ton of miles we are debating on how to use LOL!

WOW!! What a great a deal!! I will have to think about investing in one!!

Let the busy monday evening commence! Well I got the girls home from school, now we are off to swimming lessons and then home for supper and then I will be off to the Gym! Phew, I am exhausted just thinking about it! I will probably be around later tonite after I get home from the Gym! Have a great evening, Snowbirds!

G'night Peaches! I feel like I haven't talked with you in forever.

I know I'm late but... The times we rented a car we really never used it when staying onsite. It can be more of a hassle that Magical Express if the rental car site is not at the airport. Since ME is free and I also hate driving and am an expert at getting lost AND they charge daily premiums if you are under 25years old its ME for us!! I'm excited because I will be booking my package very very soon!! I don't have a visa card but I got the latest offer because I have an account on the Disney website. I'm not sure how they handle those sorts of things. Ok well I have an appointment at 5:20 then I go to the Learning Center at the college to tutor chemistry 6-9. I know there will be a TON of drop-ins because there is a General Chemistry I test on Wednesday Wish me luck, I'll need it! Now I just have to figure out when I will be able to eat dinner....
