Hey Disunc - does the WDW one have hard or soft blades? I know you said it was tough.....so I guess that means hard.... I'm wondering about that w/ a 3yr old. I was thinking about one Sharper Image has on clearance. Was 20 - now 10 - but figure its ok quality? :confused3
Soft blades! Totally safe even when you try them on your tounge!!! I DID!

The plastic itself is TUFF...no leaks either!

Have had my Crystal Light packed away in the plastic tubs (you know, the ones on the counter of my landing, as in the pic) for several weeks now. Planning to buy a case of water on our grocery run first day we get there (not to mention coffee, tequila :sunny:, margarita mix, chips & salsa, snacks, citronella candles for the balcony, and oh yeah, food!). I really think we're prepared (for everything but the humidity). Now if we can just get a good deal on a rental car for the week instead of just the first day, we'll be able to run over to Wal-mart any old time we think of something else we need (not to mention not take 60+ min to get to our Boma and 'Ohana ADRs).

Rentals got CRAZY! The longer you wait the HIGHER the price! The BEST deal I got was a SUV (nobody wants these gas guzzlers) for TOTAL (tax & all) for 10 days for 301.00!!! with AAA discount. Rent 2 months ago...hoping the price will go down....IT WENT UP by 150.00!!!!! :eek:

Yeah....REALLY didnt want to hear about your tongue (bad, bad, visual here...) ;)

Buts thanks for the info!!!!!!
 

OK, I checked my pantry. The Walmart Lemonade (I thought it was iced tea..) has artificial sweeteners. the Koolaid has sugar, fructose, and sucralose (whatever that is...isn't that what Splenda is made from??) Sorry my mistake... :bitelip:

We loved it. It was perfect for my family. We're actually torn about where to stay the next time we come back because we liked it so much. Having the full kitchen was great. Trying to decide if we should stay there again or give another place a try. The only other cabins we've been to were cabins at Yogi Bear which were great too, but FW's were much nicer. At Yogi though there's more room to do things right outside your cabin including a campfire which DW doesn't allow. However DW had a maid come everyday, they had someone come clean off the porch & even someone to clean out the outside grill. We stayed in the 2700 loop. The bus service was fantastic.

The only downside was our shower clogged twice & the toilet clogged once-- we had to have maintainance come. The other big thing was on our last full day we returned to our room from the AK & EVERY cabinet in our kitchen & living room was standing open. The door opens into the kitchen & looks in the lr. I had been locking my purse in my car, but dh locked it in a cabinet for that day only. We never did find anything missing, but that left us with a very creepy feeling! If someone was sneaking around why leave EVERY cabinet open. Dh complained to the manager & they ended up giving us money back. They offered to let us stay at the resort the full day we were leaving, but we just wanted to go. :sad2:

Even though those things happened we still enjoyed it enough to consider going back there. :goodvibes

Very strange!!!!! I wonder if Mousekeeping thought you already left?????

What section are these in? In all the times I have been to Wal-mart, the only mister fans I have seen are the spray bottle type that they have hundreds of in a big bin in the middle of the back aisle. I looked all over today (didn't ask any Wal-mart CMs, but they usually give the duh-I-don't-know look to that kind of question anyway) and didn't see any other kind! Guide me!


If I made Cyn smile that's MY therapy :goodvibes :goodvibes :goodvibes !

ps - if you just felt like ordering high end stuff because you dont want to have any extra money at Disney (no, actually not bad sale...)

Wow, those are nice benefits!! I love comp time, the problem is most of the time, you don't have time to use it...that's why you got it in the first place...I had 8 weeks paid sick/maturnity leave at my last job..I left one day, had DS8 that night, didn't turn in my notice til 7 weeks 4 days later...until I was sure the direct deposit had been made....don't worry, they definitely had it coming to them... :thumbsup2

No, thats ok!!! Sugars natural and fine in moderation! And yummy!!! Its helps with brain development in kids!!! (And after seeing the brains of some of the first mice Nutrisweet was tested on I'll stick with sugar most of the time too!!Esp. for my little ones. Mom could use a little more NON-sugar stuff, ofcourse :) .)

FYI! I posted this once on another board here. Years ago I read that Nutrasweet is VERY UNTESTED as its long term effects! You shouldnt give it at ALL to kiddies. I also read that NS may have a hand in ADHD & all that kind of stuff. I am by NO way a 'label" reader or what to give kids etc! I am just a eat what you want kinda guy, and a fierce Fruit pusher & NEVER give ANYTHING with NS to any kid. Those articles scared the provbial you know what outta me!

I am a BIG NO NUTRAWEET FOR KIDS pusher!!!!!!!! Thats it...off my soapbox now!

I cant believe that it is NOT widely known about NS! Most kids can handle sugar...except my Goddaughter give her a sip of soda and BOOM...she was flying round the room! :hyper:
 
Before I go any further I must first offer a confession & beg for forgiveness! :guilty:

When I first starting posting on this board I read through about 45 pages then stopped, because life stupidly got in the way. (I know no excuse) Anywho I picked up again somewhere around the 100's w/o reading the middle. :guilty:

Yesterday & today I decided to make up for that & attempted to make up for that by reading the stuff in the middle. I left off at pg 164. I still have to make up my reading from there up until about the time that Taralee met with Lizzy & mom before there trip. (could be anywhere from 2 to 100 pages on this board :goodvibes )

The reason I'm confessing is I wanted to tell you after all that reading I felt motivated into making a HD run. Not just 1 HD, but to 2 HDs. I had to make dh my accompliance (notice the use of the word "make", I'm not sure what got into him, but I'm gonna get it out :darth: ).

The first HD netted us only 3 dark blue MHs. ALL of the green ones were gone! :faint: We fared much better at the 2nd HD, we got 16 LGMHs

Back to dh, he kept going on & on about stealing, not listening to me when I told him we prefer the term "swiping". :mad: I mean really, I did tell him I'd bail him out of the poky if needed (I just didn't say when exactly ;) ) I told him to imagine he was Tom Cruise from Mission Impossible, I even hummed the music for him. I told him I wasn't going to let him wear any of my Lime stuff if he didn't cooperate.

The good news is I have 16 more LGMHs. :thumbsup2 The bad news is I have to map out more HDs in between my required reading. ;)

:thumbsup2

BTW CUTE NEW PIC!

Thanks..that's DS6(Lucas) and DS8(Alex)...they're a mess, as we say in the south. Is the picture too big, I don't want to tick off the mods?...

We didn't actually stay at the WL...maybe I should go over to the CB to ask if it is kosher to picture hop to a resort lobby that you are not staying at??? :stir:
 
hrh_disney_queen said:
won't they fill it with ice water for you at the refreshment stands, too? If it hasn't been mentioned yet, I believe they are $18. :teeth:

My DS's keep begging for them, we don't even go when it's really hot. I suspect there would be more cooling of the other park visitors than them... :p

:thumbsup2 EVERY WDW refreshment stand will give you as much ice water as you want (it does taste yucky though) for any reason.
Also...please note during the SUMMER months....SOFT DRINK REFILLS ARE FREE at WDW sit Restaraunts!!!!!!!! Some of the eateries...JUST KEEP BRINGING SOFT DRINK AFTER SOFT DRINK!!!!!! You dont even need to ask! I :love: their ICE TEA's there!!!!!

They are REAL GOOD ABOUT THIS

Why is it that everytime I scroll past this post of mine, I see, "OK, I checked my PANTY"? :confused3
