pin trading in the resorts

On past trips, my kids mainly traded with CM's off lanyards and we are looking to expand our trading to other spots around the world this year. A quick search online showed these spots in the resorts as having trading boards, etc. but some of the info was posted a few years ago so I wanted to post here to see how much of this was current. Any new spots not listed? Any of these spots no longer trading locations? Thanks for your help!

Boardwalk has a book at concierge desk along with a board at the store on the boardwalk. I never saw a pin station on the boardwalk but then again I wasn't looking. Also the DVC desk in the lobby of resort.

 

You can go up to the check in desk at Poly and ask to see the pin book and they bring one to you. Also at guest relations at any of the parks and they have a book there also.

 

BC and YC concierge desks have them as well.

 

I was at the GF in August 2012 and the pin board was on display in the aforementioned gift shop on a Monday at about 10am. However, they were gearing up to shoot a commercial that day so I don't know if it was out of the ordinary. I seem to remember being in the shop previous times over the weekend and don't remember anything about the "after 6pm" rule... Someone else correct me if I'm wrong.

 

The gift shop at Art of Animation has a pin board that is brought out twice per day for trading. I can't remember the times, but they were posted very clearly in the shop.

 

I don't remember the exact hours, but there was someone outside The Wave in the Contemporary with a trading pin board during the afternoons. Also, the CMs in Fantasia Gardens had a mini board they could bring out.

 

Does Carribbean Beach have a pin board? weve never stayed there, but will be staying there shortly and both my girls love pin trading!

 

Never thought of Fantasia Gardens......great to know!
