hey shelly if disney doesn't sell anything like that what I am planning on doing since my DD is only 2 i was going to bring home the disney maps and "try " to remember where i got them and stick the penny on the area that i got it in. and frame them. it's cute until she get's older and tells me to remove them ... you can do something like that on a scrap book or something...

That's a cute idea!

I do think WDW sells a holder for pressed pennies. If I remember correctly is is about the size of an autograph book and is sort of like a holder. Like you slide the pennies into a slot. I haven't bought the holder but that is what I remember.

My kids have done pressed pennies and machines usually seem easy to find, we were never looking for them. We just usually stick the pennies in our fanny packs. It is usually when we are waiting to do something else when we press pennies.

Helpful hint I read: Get a pack of M&M mini's that come in the plastic container. Dump the m&m's. Pack the container with your coins, quarter, quarter, penny, repeat until you fill the container. Then you have your coins in order and ready to use. No scrambling for coins.

May 18th. . . . . We will be going to AK at opening and DS 8 and I will be running for EE to ride before the line gets enormous!! Then meeting up with DH & DS 5 to ride Dinosaur. Then to our breakfast at Donalds Restaurantosauras at 10:00, where I will look for Mari if she hasn't left yet.
Then staying at AK until 1 or 2. Then back to POFQ to rest awhile and get ready for dinner at Chef Mickey's. Then hoping on the monorail and taking a quick tour of the monorail line deluxe resorts. And when we stop at the Poly I will be wondering around saying - JC Whhhheeeeeeerrrrrrrreeeeeeee aaarrrreeeee yyyyyyooooooooooouuuuuuuuu!!!!!

Thanks Mari. I think the kids will like it. I hope the machines are easy to find and use. I wonder if Disney sells a book to display them in?

I am getting so excited!! I think I will pack a few more things today!

Shelly,
Yes, Disney does have a book to put them in. My friend's daughter did this on their Easter trip. One hint I learned from another board is to use those M&M minis tubes to stack your quarters and pennies in. Each pressed penny is 51c, so you stack them quarter, quarter, penny, quarter, quarter, penny....

I've never tried it, but it sounds like a good idea!

 

[NewCrew42]

Haven't tried it but it sounds like a winner to me!

 

[marcyinPA]

Great idea! Thanks!!

Ok, guess I should have read ahead before I posted! LOL Great minds think alike, you know!

May 18- We have no set plans for this day. I'm thinking Blizzard Beach in the morning, coming back to the resort after a few hours, and then bumming around Pop until our 5pm Ohana ADR. After that, I'm not sure. We'll have to pack up, since we leave the next day....booo hooo

 

[mari360]

on May 18th I will be heading to AK early since i have ADR for Breakfastasaurus at 9 am then we'll be at the park til about 3 pm since we really don't do the whole animal thing. but we'll see then the rest of the day we will be enjoying the resort unless I do another ADR somewhere i still have 1 left from my DDP. any recomendations?????
