I need your opinions please.........
DH and I are planning to go to the party on Oct 19th. However it will be on the day we arrive after a 8 hr drive. I thought about buying the tickets ahead of time to save $$ but it looks to me as if you don't really save much because of shipping fees. Also, if we have a delay on the drive down, and don't feel like going, I won't have to worry about unloading the tickets.
Do you think they will sell out for that date ahead of time? What do you think my chances of getting tickets at the gate??? TIA!
 
I have heard that Halloween sells out and a few days around that day. I'm hoping to wait to buy my ticket for MNSSHP while I'm there. I figure I save a few bucks now, but if we are too tired or the weather is bad on our night then I've lost more than I saved. We are planning for the 14th but have an option of the 16th if we wait. Unless some experts think the FTP will result in sell outs, I'll wait.
 
So far the only day we can go is the 10th so I bought nime now just be cause I like to be on the safe side. Also a plus is I already have paid for them and that will be one less expense during our trip. Howver if I can find a way to go a day or 2 earlier or stay a little later I will buy tickets there for another night as well. The 19th is getting close to Halloween, I dont know if nights that close usually sell out. If I was going 10/30 or 10/31 I would def buy them now.
 
I buy mine ahead of time. We are going in the 16th but I already ordered them just so I know I have them for sure.
 

we were at MK on a weekday(maybe a Thurs?) around 10/20 ish, and they were selling the wristbands at MK in the afternoon, so they must have had plenty left. I would worry if you are going on 10/31, or some other really poular day, but otherwise they will probably still have them. Then again, with the fairytale package??
Not much help I guess!
 
I have never gone in the past. However I did buy tickets for 10/31 this year about 10 days ago (right after they went on sale). Then I called yesterday to order tickets for my parents (who originally weren't going to arrive until later but changed their plans). When I was speaking with a very friendly CM, she told me these sell out fast. She said usually sell out before the end of summer. I would assume she was talking about 10/31 in particular.

The only other really popular day seems to be the 19th for some reason. At least according to the poll going on around here, the last I looked the 19th and 31st were tied.

Also, after I paid the shipping charge, I don't think the savings was that great. I mean if you don't know 100% that you will go.
 
anybody else with experience on this?

trying to decide whether to prepurchase 10/26

Silly question....

Can you "pre-purchase" them in person on property?

We're going to be there next weekend....

TIA
