Make me feel better about booking without a PinCode!

[jackirkh]

I just recently booked my May trip within the last few days after waiting for a pin code for a while. I would have booked a while ago out of excitement but didn't want to miss a potential PC. Anyway, I booked using the Spring Discounts and got CSR with 25% off the room for most days and 20% on the weekend.

Should I feel bad that I didn't reap the benefits of a PC? Are not most PC's around 30% off room only anyway?

Just trying to make myself feel better

I'm still trying to make myself ok with it. I havne't even booked yet...I'm still trying to hold out for a code. Don't think it's going to happen though. The room only deal isn't saving me much at all.

I go to WDW 4-6 times a year and have never received a PIN Code. I've pretty much given up on getting one. However, the only times I've ever paid rack rate is when the free dining offer only required one day park tickets for AP holders in order to get it. Otherwise I've always been able to use some other discount (buy four get three nights free, bounceback deals, or AP discounts). General Public discounts have also always pretty much came out for the same dates though. I currently have an AP room booked at POFQ for 35% off for our Feb trip. I also have bounceback deals booked for 30% off at CSR in May, POFQ in Sept, and POFQ again Oct/Nov. I'm hoping an AP discount comes out that beats the bounceback deals, but if not, I'm happy with the 30% I have so far. I've always been able to get 40%-45% off the Deluxes and 30%-35% off the Moderates, even without ever getting a PIN Code.

OP: all is not lost! If you do happen to get a pin code between now and your trip, just call back to Disney and see if it is a better deal than what you already have. If it is, they will apply your pin code to your existing reservation!
