is this ever going to happen today!?!?

IT BETTER HAPPEN TODAY!!!!!!

The way I am reading it is you are responsible to pay taxes on the full regular value of the stay as income. It is like winning a prize. It isn't the hotel tax that everyone pays when they stay somewhere. We won a TV last year during a promo that our local appliance store had. The Celtics won the World Championships so we were refunded our $1100 we had paid for the TV. We just got a 1099 in the mail to submit with our taxes this year. It is considered income so we have to pay tax on it. I think this sounds like sort of the same thing. So it would be based on the value of whatever you "win". That is how I am understanding it at least.

in order to get tax things... dont you have to give your ssn... i surely wont be doing that on a website while im giving my credit card info too!

 

[talulabelle]

This isn't sales tax or lodging tax, we're talking INCOME TAX like 33% of the cost of the room, not 5%. It's like winning a prize, so that would be considered income and Obama and my jerk of a governor Omally are gonna want their third.

BTW - keep in mind the better the room, potentially higher your tax bill for it. My husband wond a trip California once with a promo for a local station. We had to pay $800 in income tax for it. (it was a nice trip)

I was just watching the Dog video again, and I noticed that the clock was set to 11:52 AM when they went to bed...when the clock showed again it was at 6:02 AM. I don't know if that makes a difference or not, but the dot on the side that moves for AM & PM was at the same spot for both. I am going through all the videos and trying to find some clues!

what's COR? contemporary?

Coronado Springs; CR would be Contemporary Resort (I think I have my standard abbreviations correct at least )

 

[jlindemer]

When the dog looks at the computer it has 14:49 left on the clock---do we think this might be 2:49?

 

[MommyTo5]

I'm pretty sure it is this one:
Room Type Status Avg Nightly Rate
Garden Wing - Standard View Available $328.74 show details

Garden Wing - Garden View Available $379.31 show details

This is definitely the Contemporary... it's the only hotel with a Garden "Wing".

Good Luck!

The difference is this would be counted as income. If you got a hotel @ $375.00/night x 7 nights, then you would claim an additional $2625 in income and have to pay income taxes on that amount.

It still would be less than the cost of the room itself, so no biggie.

Why would anyone think that they ahve to pay taxes on something they are getting on sale? It works just like "buy one at $5 and get a $5 gift card back" What's the big deal ?

I'm not sure that making people stalk their website all day is good for LMT's future business.....

 

[tekmom]

I already have a 5 night ressie at AKL for July. Can I still try for a hotel at WDW, such as AKL for that exact time frame or would an additional ressie invalidate the original one?

With my luck, I'd snare the room for a buck, it'll be a scam and I end up losing my original booking through WDW.

 

[momof296&02]

how do you get on the chatango thing where it notifies you? I went there but how do you get to here it when someone types go - do i have to sign up???

Thanks
Leslie

No need to sign up. I didn't. I refreshed every 25 mins. Make sure the volume is on. On the bottom left there's a thing that looks llike a bullhorn.

I got in at 1am ish on Thursday. At that time you were able to chat in the chatroom & lots of people missed the opportunity to book. I believe that all these boards are beingmonitored & that the sale will pop up when they think there won't be too many bookings.

Good luck to everyone.

8151 is the Contemporary
Pretty sure anyway, it comes up on my dates for garden wing-garden view only

 

[DancingMinnie]

Coronado Springs should be CSR... confusing!

 

[Shmily1]

Numbers 8151 and 8152 are not on the list but I think they are BC and CR... just guessing though.

 

[glo]

okay, which resort has spoodles in it?

Boardwalk

BTW - keep in mind the better the room, potentially higher your tax bill for it. My husband wond a trip California once with a promo for a local station. We had to pay $800 in income tax for it. (it was a nice trip)

but this is not a competition or sweepstakes. its a lower price for a certain time.
so should not have to be declared as "something won".

someone here mentioned earlier, it is just like getting the 19.99 TV from JCPenny on black Friday.

[PlutoGirl1117]

Dare I ask?? Did it happen??

 

[minnie1928]

So, is there anything else happening on the dis today? I haven't left this thread (or the original one) all day! I'm afraid to leave...I might miss something!

 

[wannagotodisney]

Anyone else feel like their brain has turned to mush??? I've been doing this since 2:15 a.m. EST with the exception of about 2 hrs sleep. It's a good thing we have this chat to keep us awake!
