Thank you for sharing your story! I had not heard/read it before. I am glad you were able to make some amazing memories with your Dad, and help us all in the making of our memories with our loved ones.

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!

I'm so glad that you have such wonderful memories of your dad and that you get to relive those at each visit and feel close to him. Thanks for helping us all make our own memories. I will definitely be thinking of you and your dad on our next trip.

Made me tear up. Thank you for sharing. I never had a parent that I was close to, I am hoping to create those same type of memories for my children.

Thanks so much Joe for everything! And thank you for sharing your story, that is a very nice story and I think it's a great way to remember your Dad. I think often of my first trip with my mother and have been blessed to be able to go back with her two other times.

And thank you Dave for your insight and help! The numbers also were helpful and made me head hurt

Joe, thanks for sharing your story. Your Dad is there with you every day - and he knows that he raised a wonderful son.

Thank you so much Black for all that the information you have provided. It was very helpful. We would've still went with or without the FD but being able to receive it was definitely a plus. Thank you for all your hard work that you do for us to provide this information.

Thank you so much!!!! I still can't believe we got a discount for Thanksgiving week. The earliest we could leave was 11/23 and I was hoping that Disney wouldn't change the FD to end on 11/22. It would have killed me to miss it by 1 day. We would've gone anyway (POR RR), but now that we have free dining, we upgraded to AKL for $33 less

Joe and Dave,
I would like to give you both a HUGE THANKYOU!! We have been to the world many times, and each time dd loves to bring a friend that has never been, and otherwise would not be able to go. The feeling i get seeing the expressions on their face when we enter MK is awesome! Thanks for not bailing on us when the negative comments came!!

 

[staceycrouton]

Thank you so much Joe! It is because of you that we were prepared to make the change from POFQ to CSR this morning in order to get free dining. You have helped make a lot of dreams come true by helping many, many DIS'ers be able to jump on this offer as soon as it came out. Many of us would have had to cut back or cancel their vacations without the free dining. You are awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[JediBonas]

Huge thank you! We got the RO discount we were hoping for!!

 

[Happyjen27]

Yes, and a big thank you to Dave!!

I know you were instrumental in helping out with this info and reporting. In no way did I mean to slight you. You've been awesome.

Big thanks also to Smitch! You've been rocking out the advice and helping with the ins and outs of all of this, often in real time.

I titled the thread Joe Black Appreciation because it was Joe who was taking the heat from a few naysayers. So, I wanted it to be Joe who received our gratitude.

Joe, thank you for that beautiful story. I will be thinking of you and your dad when I visit in December. I'm sorry he was taken far too soon, and I'm glad you've been able to go back to Disney again, and to feel him enjoying it right along side of you.

Thanks so much to you Joe and your older,balding,heavy set buddy Davewas able to get my fd at POR and was able to score a garden view room at pofq for my ro before my fd starts can't believe pofq was 20% off this time.

Joe, thanks for sharing your story It's beautiful. And thanks to you and Dave for all the information you continue to bring! You both saved a lot of folks a lot of money today, and I for one am extremely grateful.

Thank you so much for sharing your story and thank you so much to you and Danny for letting us know about the September discounts. We lost alot of money last year because we were in a car accident and could not make our January trip. It happened right before Christmas. We did not get our van back until Feb. Thankfully no one was hurt and we did not have to pay for the damages. We lost money on the insurance we bought for the trip and the less than 45 days until the trip. If it weren't for your being able to let us know about the discounts that might happen, we would not have been able to look forward to taking one last family trip with my son and daughter before my son goes into the Air Force. So A Really Big Thank You!!!!
