July deals??? am i crazy?

[nettii]

we are considering booking the week of July 4th....any chance on discount or free dinning???

In the past we have gotten discounts for that time frame(i don't remember the exact discount, but i know it wasn't FD). There is another post on here from recent i saw about july discounts & someone posted they got a pin for FD for July 3 thru 13 i believe. So i guess it is possible but not a guarantee.

We are going for 4th of July. FD deal with pin code.... that goes till June 30th, so need to arrive the 30th or before it seems to be able to have it into July. Otherwise, no, other than room only discounts there should be to come out. should be... still waiting!

There's nothing specific you can do to get one. I've tried every hint on the boards and no pins ever! It's very random.

Summer deals can vary, and many times it's the deluxe and DVC that get the most discounts in the summer. Probably because most of the visitors are families on a budget, so they don't have trouble filling the values and mods. But keep your eyes and ears open and be prepared to book immediately if you see what you want. If you take time to think you may lose the deal.

We have the PIN for FD that goes to 6/30. We don't know if we will use it though. We are going to a convention at the Dolphin and will arrive on 6/30 but we think that there will be a bunch of wasted credits while we are at the convention and also we tend to go to dinner a few nights with the group we are attending with. We were planning to stay off site this time and when I have run the numbers it looks to be about even when factoring in what we might spend on food/hotel VS. booking with this PIN.

Overall, it seems that using the PIN will end up costing us more only because we will need to buy food while at the Dolphin and will pay for a few dinners with the group. Also, add in the fact that we don't need park tickets...we have leftover tickets from last year.

Just booked flights for July 4-10. got an amazing deal using our travel credits. Paid 93.60 for 3 round trip tickets. Now we are looking for a deal on resort. Excited.

I saved a vacation offer from checking dates etc... And 3 days later I got a Pin. Sadly it was only for 10 percent off room but I used it. I'm praying something else comes but so far... We are July 5 to 12

Got the "Game On" Pin via US Mail in November. 30% all resort levels. It said July 1 - 31. It was actually good all of 2012. We booked July 4 to July 14. FYI- I did save a vacation for July on WDW.com as we were planning a July trip.
