Magic Bands - worth purchasing for offsite?

[hiroMYhero]

Thanks, I'm going to get them. Where do I get them? Can they be ordered online before we go?

If you aren't going for a month or so, you should read the Throwaway Room Thread: http://www.disboards.com/showthread.php?t=3218652

It's full of tips for off-site guests regarding FPs, MagicBands, and room cancelations.

I was worried about this too, but the bands are pretty sturdy andI know mine got bumped and jostled around all week lifting my husband in and out of the car and rides, but it never once fell off, felt flimsy or even felt like it might break. For only $13, it was nice not having to worry about a card ticket, but, it's not for everyone, which is why they still have the cards for now

Five of us have used some of the same bands for 4 trips so far without incident. Anecdotal, of course, but totally worth it for us as well.

Thanks everyone, I did order them. With 3 young children it seems worth it. It would be a bonus if they still worked in 2 years when we go again!
