January 2009. . . Calling all Snowbirds ~ Part III !!!

[MindyLuvsMickey]

Is there any love for people staying at deluxes?

I'm already booked at the Poly and want to stay there!! I am on hold and have been on hold for about 5 minutes. Am I going to be here forever?

 

[Lil'Mermaid75]

I don't know for SURE my savings, but I priced it online (CBR rooms were available!!!) and it was about the same as your's Shelly! I'll know for sure tomorrow.

WOW!! Congrats to all of you scoring great savings!! My DH told me about the deal while I was at dance with the DDs. I said, oh, too bad. Since we're only staying 4 nights... He says, well, I could go for longer. I say, but I have a plane ticket that only gives me 4 nights. He says, But I could go sooner WHAT? That's not fair. You can't go without me! I could get out of work, but how much would it cost me to change my flight?

AARRGH!!

Anyway, a quick question for you AP experts -
If I want to take the AP 40% off room deal, and I need 2 rooms, do we need two people with APs, or can just one of us have an AP and book the rooms? I'm thinking about trying that deal, and then buying more days, with no exp. for the rest of the family since we're planning to go back in Dec.
TIA,

My TA just e-mailed with the deal if we switch from the Poly to the Grand Floridian. It is a savings of almost $1100!!! Do we go for it...... I am so confused!!! My dh really wanted to stay at the Poly but this is such a good deal. Do you think the GF is too formal for a family with three boys under 8?

Help!!!!!!!

TIA, Susan

How is everyone saving so much??? I only saved $300?

 

[pamouselover]

Can I cry on someone's shoulder. My little baby is having his first sleepover. I've never spent a night away from him in over 4 years.

I'm really sad.

I dont sleep well when my children are not sleeping under the same roof as me.

You know you live in the south when your school has 'Camo Day'? All the kids dressed in camoflauge and hunting apparel. Seriously!

Jen, your DH would be in hog heaven!!!

That is too funny.

 

[Monny2AE]

Okay, I just re-figured. I was going off of 6 nights instead of 7. I actually saved $542 plus will get the $200 gift card!!!!!!!!!!

Hooray for you!!! An extra day at Disney

Tough call I don't know. I would think you'll be okay til tomorrow but after waiting on hold for so long I don't know. They are really busy tonight.

 

[pamouselover]

What a deal it is. I would just take the $200 gift card!

How is everyone saving so much??? I only saved $300?

At a guess I'd say it's the difference between staying at a Value, and staying at a Deluxe.

Wouldn't $1100 pay for some great stuff to take home, or a pirate adventure (if your boys are the right age), or even kids club time for them and a fancy dinner for you and DH, not to mention fireworks cruises. The Poly would only be a monorail ride away wouldn't it?
