Pal Mickey's cost

[TinkOhio]

Thanks for the heads-up on pal mickey! I had been debating on whether or not to buy one by phone, and then it was posted that the outlet mall was Sawgrass Mills. Lucky me--My parents live close by and picked one up for DD! We'll be down there for Christmas, so Santa's hardest job quickly became a piece of cake! Thanks SO much!!

We will be there next month, and Im gathering gifts to leave for the boys daily while we are there. This will make a great gift! The CM was very friendly and said my order would ship same day!

Another great big THANKS! I was giving my nephew Disney Dollars for Christmas, to buy Pal Mickey when we go Jan. 8th. This is even better! I called tonight after 10 PM and was surprised when someone answered. I asked if they were open this late and she said "we are closed to the public, but still open by phone." She took my order and said she would enter it tomorrow when the registers came back up.

THANKS FOR THE NUMBER!!!

Just got my Pal Mickey...Yeah! He is so cute!! Decided I better get one for my other daughter so we didn't have fighting and tears in the parks when we have to share

They will make GREAT Christmas gifts! I took your advice and ordered some pins (pooh bear smelling a flower) $2.99 and then asked if they had any golf shirts for my DH for Christmas. CM gave me three choices all for $12.99!! (Pooh, Mickey, and Mickey dressed in a golf outfit).

My shipping was the same because anything up to $100.00 is $10 plus some change...so my Christmas shopping is finished!!! (well almost)



Thanks again for this wonderful post!!!

Please tell me what the pal mickey SWAP is and how it works Thanks

 

[rileyroosmom]

I ordered mine Friday, got it yesterday (Tuesday). I was surprised how quick it came (was nervous I wouldn't get it in time for our departure on Tuesday the 24th). Also got 4 pins. My kids were so excited about Mickey they fought all night over him (11, 7, 3 ) hope they get it out of their systems so we can share him in the parks!!

Just wanted everyone to know that before ordering my Pal Mickey through the post above I called the outlet store near Disney and were told that they do not carry Pal Mickey there (probably due to the close location to the parks). I ordered mine and the CM was So-o-o nice and helpful. I ordered on a Tues. and recieved mine on Friday!

 

[spiceycat]

I think the Mickey Swap works like this (go see the post on that topic) - you get the Mickey from someone - you are charged for those days that you have him - then you pass him along to the next person.

Since I will be there for 14 days this time, and in May 7 days - I would be paying more for the Swap that just buying him is costing me.

so the swap only works for short visit.

if you can time one for your time and get on the list - it seems like a good deal.

We're leaving next Wednesday and I've been fighting the temptation to buy this little guy. I thought I might want to wait until the new Mickey came out next year, but I thought, "Hey, why wait? I can always get the new one later!" Sean at the Disney Store was very helpful, and said he'd try to catch the delivery guy so it would get out today. Now I'll keep my fingers crossed that the shipment will get here by Wednesday. I've read on this thread that people were getting the deliveries pretty quick. I'm down to 5 or 6 business days so we'll see!

Oh my goodness is he cute!!!

Thanks so much for letting me know.

BTW, mine came witha clip. Did any of you get a strap?? Lots of photos I have seen show people with him on a strap.

 

[shonadamson]

Thanks for the info. We just ordered one for our trip this summer. What a great deal.

 

[jjan]

I think that the clip is to attach to a belt loop... the straps that you have seen in pictures I think are Disney Lanyards which is what we are going to do with ours. I have heard a lot of warnings about him falling off from just the belt clip alone getting on and off rides etc. and we wouldn't want to lose Mickey!!!

 

[LIFERBABE]

I should have ordered 2! Now I will have to pay shipping again if I want another one.

I am packing him up to take to WDW with us next month for the holidays. I put the receipt in his box just in case I need it when I am at the World.

 

[tinkandhook]

did you guys just order some pins and get some random ones, or did you ask for specific ones? Also does anyone know of anywhere else to get the lanyard starting pin set with tinkerbell besides in the park. dd and i will be going dec.4-dec9 (mvmcp dec7) and thought it would be cool to get one.
thanks

Has anyone had problems with the PM they bought? DH was playing with ours last night before we packed him and he was telling him he was wrong when he wasn't. We need to play with him some more to make sure, but I wonder what we can do when we are there if we have problems with him? Any ideas??

 

[rileyroosmom]

I just asked for random ones, told her I have boys. She started to describe a few but even she wasn't sure what she had. I said just find boyish ones. She asked about favorite characters. My oldest son was a little dissapointed in the pins. I told him it didn't matter, just trade them.

 

[rileyroosmom]

Lori- put fresh batteries in him.

 

[poohbear7]

Thank you so much for the information I just called and ordered
2 Pal Mickeys. What a great deal, I know now why I did't buy one at Disney last trip.

I didn't get mine from this source, but I wanted to say for those who have never used him, he's great! My husband got him in Sept for me, and I love it! I'm 31! We don't have kids. He's really good to have in World Showcase. He a little hard to hear during the hustle and bustle of the parks but you get used to him. It would be nice if he had the ability to add head phones. That'd be my only suggestion. I like the clothes idea, but I doubt we'll buy another this soon just for a change of outfit.
