AAAAAHHHHHHH - I want all of them!!

 

[dachsie]

Let's just say they are more generous later in the evening. Plus you can circle around and get more from the same location!

I think @dachsie holds this record! I believe the item was applesauce, right?

no - it was at Pinocchio Village Haus - got handfuls of candy and filled the bag

Sorry if this has been asked, but 10/1 is our first Halloween Party - does anyone bring their own trick or treat bags, or do you just use the ones they give you?

Okay, then who was it? Oh you guys have to remember this!

The bags they provide are tiny. Many bring their own TOT bags, or at least a backpack to dump the smaller bags in when they get full.

That's what I had read, that the bags are small. I don't think we want tons and tons of candy, but we'll definitely bring bigger bags.

Last year was my first year and I'm super excited for this year! But I can't decide if we'll actually be going. I'm an AP so when I went in September last year it was like $75. This year DH & I are doing Food & Wine Oct 30-Nov 3. We can totally do the Nov 1 party, but it's $110pp. That's a big difference! I'm excited to see the show replacing Hallowishes, but DH isn't a Disney lover like me & an extra ~$235 to our trip is going to be difficult to talk him into. I guess we will see.

I found one of the blocked off areas I mentioned earlier, I know pp mentioned the hub I'll see if I can pull that up while searching for something else!

Oh yeah, I remember this too, a bit of a warning to large parties and Magic Shots. If you have a lot of people in your group your magic shot might be replaced with a different image.

@SquashBanana warns on Post #9432

I will add, last year was the first time I've ever heard of this happening.

We always bring our own bags. We picked up some nice heavy duty Halloween bags from Cracker Barrel a few years ago. They’re big and will last forever.

Look in your grocery store check out line. In the past the stores here have sold reusable grocery bags with Halloween themes.

I found my original Post #10508 dated Nov 2, 2018

"I don't remember what Trick or Treat location is was but it was our first stop and we got one, ONE fun size packet of M&M's.
For me this was typical but the look on my friends face, boy, was she mad! I believe she said "I'm embarrassed, to be dressed up to the hill and get one piece of candy......" oh, she went on and I agreed.


We can laugh about it now, right?! Including the hair in my food!

From then on I showed them my Birthday Button and said "Today, this very day is my 55th birthday, load me up with some candy please." I opened up my little bag as far as it could go and they all did just that, handfuls literally handfuls at every stop. Seven pounds total and I had to remove it from my luggage because I had exceeded the weight restriction set forth by Spirit. Thank goodness for TSA Pre-Check walked straight though with gallon size bags in tote! Oh yeah! Good times! "

Silly me!

Saw my post from last year mentioned and I came to the thread to let everyone know that currently the ENTIRE path on the left side of castle is currently closed. We just got back from WDW last weekend and the moat around the castle is also drained, along with the path closed.

I don’t know what work they are doing or when they’ll be finished, but with MNSSHP starting in less than three months it’s probably good to keep an eye on when it will reopen if you plan to use the path for getting around during the party.

I am still undecided on MNSSHP this year. If we do, it will have to be in August BEFORE SWGE opens. Every CM I spoke with at WDW two weeks ago said it’s going to be crazy in ALL of WDW once it opens.

@pangyal what happened after you sent Disney your email last year, Post #9796, did they ever respond?

@Dean1953 Great photos of you & your son at last years party. I remember and reread your posts regarding how upset you were with the lack of merchandise, did you write Disney too? When are you going to MNSSHP?

Yes, they did respond and refunded my party tickets without my asking for this to be done. The nice CM I spoke to did say that they had been fielding calls about the crowd levels at last years’ events for weeks on end, so I am very curious to see whether they backed off from selling so many tickets this year or if they will just dole out guest recovery after the fact on an as-needed basis...

I read that you can still buy Military discounted tickets even if the party has sold out. THIS IS HAS NOT BEEN CONFIRMED!

Plus comments from last year's party seemed to center around CM's not checking for party wristbands as aggressively as they have in the past. At one point someone mentioned the crowds were so thick they lost control during a parade. Guests who did not purchase the dessert package were sitting in the designated location. A CM removed the rope for whatever reason and the crowd took control.

This path is being expanded. Should be open by the 4th of July.

EEEP! Thinking I should incorporate an electric cattle prod into my costume somehow for prime parade viewing

@FoxC63 I was in your group last year and I remember reading the report from the lady (I think it was a lady) who got a whole ton of applesauce.
