Just received my Dreams Unlimited gift basket!! Pics added Post #1

[Sydnerella]

I took a few pictures of the gift basket and contents, and Facebook turned my stills into a cute video!!

Lots of really nice items, just for booking our cruise with Dreams Unlimited. And a shout out to our awesome agent Beth Czada!!! [\QUOTE]

Beth is our agent too! Several WDW trips using her but this is our first cruise. We depart of the Fantasy October 15th. Im curious if she will send one to my inlaws who booked our cruise as they don't return to their FL home until October 6th from summer in MN.

Synderella - we are on the same cruise
The DU baskets seem to arrive 3-4 weeks before sailing.

Do they send these for all cruises? I'm probably going to be booking an Alaska cruise through them

Currently the gifts are mailed to those with US and Canadian addresses that used Dreams Unlimited to book their cruise. One basket per reservation.

We have used Beth Czada for 6 cruises, she is great. We have not received a basket though since the change in policy - I live in Canada and assume that is why I never received one the last few cruises . . .

Yes that was Shirley from The Perfect Gift. We ordered gift baskets for our sons and SIL and BIL on a couple of our cruises.

Regarding the gifts today from Dreams, I LOVE all of the items in there, and I plan to use them on our cruise in a month!

Yes Shirley was awesome and a real treat with customer service. If I remember her husband Norm had passed away a few years ago now and she kept on doing baskets until Disney would no longer accept outside vendors doing drop offs. It was heartbreaking indeed.

i thought i heard that overseas clients can drop by the DU office near port canaveral to pick up a gift basket.
Is that true?

I think I read that, too. Email your DU agent and they'd know for sure.

Not sure if the tote is something that you always receive in the DU basket as we just got ours and it wasn't in there. All but the tote. Which is ok I'm not complaining I wasn't expecting anything, just saying we didn't get the tote. Sailing in 3 weeks.

Ours was missing the watch (it was listed on the paper enclosed but wasn't in the basket.) We also got the reusable shopping bag but no tote. (not sure if they were giving them then as it was back in May.) No glow sticks either.
Probably just oversight on part of whoever packed them....as many as they have to pack I'm sure stuff gets left out from time to time.

Ooooh! I remember all that (except insulated tote)! We told our TA we used every single thing in our DU gift basket. At the time, they even included a small extension cord (a no-no now). Hoping to get those magnet clips! LOVE those! So useful!

DW and I received all of our travel documents for our upcoming WDW/DCL vacation. About a week ago I pulled up the driveway and saw a box sitting at our front door. I knew I had nothing ordered so was wondering, okay now what did my kid order. To my surprise it was our gift box from Dreams Unlimited

Less than a month to go!!!

A few questions here on this zombie thread.
Have there been any changes to this gift bag listed in the first post?
Is this just a Disney gift bag?
If I booked on board in January, and gave to DU Within 30 days do I only get a gift or is there additional perks?

I can't answer the reservation transfer question but this was pretty much the gift bag I got one year ago for our Alaska cruise, with the insulated bag, mugs, flashlight key fob, magnet clips, magnet board and markers, and playing cards. We took it on the cruise and it was great to have!

it's not a disney gift bag, it's a gift bag that Dreams Unlimited puts together and sends to you before your cruise.
we got 3 before our European cruise - one for each stateroom.
We took it onboard and pretty much every item was put to use.
And one of the items enabled me to identify a DU client just down the hall from us, since they'd put their writing board on the outside of their door.

I did word that badly. I was wondering if it was only for Disney cruises. I have one cruise with Royal Caribbean.
