June, July, August PLANNING thread

[mouseaddicts]

Oh ....... did I mention that DH booked us a "fall" trip with the new AP discount? Yep ... we'll be at CSR 8/31 - 9/3 ...... We're planning to go to the and party on the 31st with his boss.

We did MNSSHP last year & had a ball!

EE22- DH is reading over my shoulder tonight & saw that you aren't going back until next year. He is sad for you .... He said "They don't get to go at ALL this year? That will be TWO years with no Mickey for them. That IS sad."

It has been more painful than any of us thought, but!! I really believe it pushed DH over the edge for DVC his parents had a timeshare and hated it so he wasn't for it. I did the math for him and I've been working on him since last fall...we knew it was coming due to friends that work there...they told us last June. I may never get my spilt rail fence but I have DVC. DH's dad also told him we didn't need spilt rail fence I have always wanted one. It took me 15 years to have my whiskey barrels rot that my MIL painted white you know the planters...I went to work one day and while I was gone she took it upon herself to paint them white. I was so upset. They finally rotted and I got new ones.

So...at least we have DVC.

We went at Christmas though so it will only be a year and half...still too long to go without the Magic.

mickeywho?, thanks, I thought she said 315.00 and that had the tax, hmmm Oh well, still better than AAA. Beware of cell phone, on AP rate day = unsure of what they are offering you. I knew I should of used the regular phone, and paid for it.

What AAA rate did you get? We're staying CR Tower MK view for 3 nights 7/5 - 7/8 at $450.56 per night, including tax. That's the AAA rate for our dates.

Different season?


Know what you mean about booking from a cell phone on AP rate day! DH called & booked ASMov at RACK RATE thiking he was getting a deal! I ran the math & quickly called back!

You got that right, I have to work off shifts, overtime, holidays, weekends, and never call in. > all hospital work too (the highest). Thats why I am limping.

 

[mkymouse4ever]

yikees, he called without the calculator in 1 hand, pad and pencil ready with copies of every possible resort and all rates listed??? Is he crazy or a novice????

Then we MUST meet up!!! You can't say "no"! We've known each other entirely too long NOT to meet at the world!!!

If I can talk Chloe into it in July .... then I'll have to work on TP2 & TOMAR ....

Yacht Club
Standard view $264.38, Water or Pool view +$78.74, Garden View Club +$135.00
Beach Club same pricing as above for standard and water, Deluxe Room Club +$191.24

I've been unable to see the values - but the site is verrrry slow. I'm sure we'll all see the prices when it speeds up in a couple of days.

He's reading over my shoulder & says "I WAS AT WORK! I was lucky to even get to be on the phone!"



He works in a factory, so it's hard for him. I usually do it ... as y'all already know - it's how we all met! ..... I sit @ a desk in front of a computer with a calculator, so it's easier for me. He just sprang this trip on me TOTALLY last minute b/c his boss came over bragging about the rate they got for their trip .... you know men!

The thing was ... this past wknd, we had this conversation about how we are NOT going to WDW this fall b/c we NEED to save $$$ for a "new" (used) car next year, new W/D, a big-screen TV and one day (about a million yrs from now) be able to put in a pool ....... Yeah, we see what happened to no trip!

I only looked up for one night - Aug 25th. More options may be offered for other nights or less. I wasn't able to see Values at all for that night. I thought it would be fairly busy being the night before free dining.

Are you there on the 3rd or 4th?
I still am in awe of those fireworks from last year.

I too must hit the hay...or my teenagers will not go to sleep and DS has football in the morning. I do not like football. Only 3 more seasons.
