Official Wine and Dine 2016 thread

[HockeyMomNH]

This may be an odd question but is the expo shopping crazy like the shopping the MVMCP?? I sure hope not because I saw people pulling and tugging for the Christmas part items and couldn't believe how nuts it was. Just want to be mentally prepared. LOL!

I've never been to the wine and Dine expo but there was an actual fist fight at Princess this year!

How much do

Today DW should be in a Castaway Cay tank top, white sweater & of course, left foot boot.
I plan to wear a Wellspan Health Running Series shirt. Royal blue with a Pennsylvania map on the back.

And a BIG thanks for the shirt & merchandise photos for the Facebook challenged.

Leaving this afternoon! Costumes ready

Sigh, leaving tonight on a redeye so I got my suitcase out of the garage last night and it smelled fine when I was in the garage. This morning as I was hanging my coat up from taking the dog out I smelled mildew, yup the suitcase. Hoping my mom can get me a new one while I'm at work and I don't need to rush out after work to get one because that means no last run. We have a detached garage that has decided to hold all the dampness the past few years, didn't used to be a problem but not everything gets affected. But tomorrow at this time I'll be landing at MCO so yay!

Safe travels to everyone going today and have fun for those that are already there!

I LOVE the half wine glass and ears magnet. This is my first runD experience. For those that have done this before, we won't get to the Expo until tomorrow (Friday) morning because we fly in too late tonight....should I prepare myself for no more wine glasses and magnets by then?

Standing in line for the Expo they just announced that pre order jackets and 10K pins will not be available today due to a shipping error. They will mail it to you when they receive it.

I heard the shipping error is that "Inaugural" was misspelled on the 10k merchandise.

Bwahahahaha

Seriously, I'm sorry for anyone getting their stuff late (EDIT: just remembered I'm one of them since I ordered a 10K pin), but that's pretty funny. And ridiculous. I feel like this isn't the first time they have misspelled that word but I could be wrong about that. Anyone else know? Something with the WDW 10K?

 

[renes]

10k magnets are on EBay already, $39.99.

And another. Not the participant shirt, this is one you can purchase.

Race after race the stuff sells out before 90% of the participants get to the expo. Does anyone think disney will ever change? Why cant they offer everything in presale? Wouldnt that make this so much easier?

And they would have the money earlier.

Or only allow runners to buy the official race stuff at least the first day of the expo to avoid 3rd party scalpers

 

[jeanigor]

I am glad that we can pre-order some things. I like to have a pin for each of the races I am doing. I can't say as though I really have ever purchased any other race merch. I like to look at it and all the people getting something to commemorate their achievements.

 

[miztressuz]

So since I'm not getting to the Expo until Saturday afternoon I should expect the official merch departments to be just vast empty wastelands? (cue tumbleweed)

I pre-ordered my pin, but was hoping for a commemorative glass or something that would get more use.
