iluvwesties (aka Carol) :wave:
 
I would love to join in as well but it looks like my dates are taken

Feb 9-14. If there is an opening, I would love to be a back up!

I will keep you in mind if there is a change bur since your dates overlap 2 swappers dates, it's not likely. Sorry :confused3

Sent you a PM. Dates are open.
 
WOW-you guys are certainly keeping me busy today with requests! :surfweb: Our gaps are filling fast! :cool1:
 
Is there some merit in giving our Swap a unique name rather than POP Fridge Swap and putting the name on the box and a comment to the effect that this fridge is "For (groupname) Swap organized by DizneyDaz only" to try and minimize the "absconding" of the fridge? Just a thought, maybe this is already done.
 

Hi there, I just got back from Pop yesterday :sad2: and when I left...there was a fridge in the luggage assistance area with the next person name on it and their arrival date. I did not actually see this fridge, but per the afternoon luggage mgrs (Brady and/or Chase){2 very helpful guys}pixiedust: pixiedust: the fridge was in the storage area. I gave him the new name tags to go on the fridge and actually handed him the toaster to go along with the fridge. Somehow, I guess during my stay, I actually found 3 diff fridges and hopefully got them to their proper home. I have tried to call the next person who checked in after me, but haven't heard from them if they got the fridge or not.
Hopefully this helps and that the swap can be continued.:banana:

The above happened June 2007

This is *so* funny. I was at POP doing a TGM swap at this time. A disboarder ended up with our fridge and checked out the day before I arrived. It took me several hours to track it down on our check in night.....many calls to baggage assitance, our TGM swap coordinator and finally the disboarder who had the fridge before me. Thank goodness the disboarder had the baggage claim number. As soon as I had that, Pop found the fridge within 15 mins.

Was that you Karla? If so you were incredibly helpful.

Unfortunately, however, the TGM fridge swap is over cause ours got lost sometime this Fall. I'm going to PM and see if I can reserve the dis one.

Thanks for keeping this going so long. I *know* it's a lot of work. I just had to deal with it one evening. I can only imagine what it's been like to keep it going for over a year.

:)

As of now (as far as I know) the fridge does have my name and phone number on it with a note that says "if unclaimed, please contact Terri B....." Like I said, this is as far as I know. It was there a few months ago since that's how POP Housekeeping contacted me when they ended up with it. I can't remember if Dizneydaz appears on it. If someone going soon wants to make a new sign for the box with Dizneydaz prominently on it in large letters, that would be great. Unfortunately, without starting a new thread, we can't change the name since the first post on this thread isn't mine. Back in Aug. 06 when this all got started Brymolmom and I had 2 separate threads going for the same swap. We consolidated on brymolmom's thread which means I can't change the title or the first post. Unfortunately brymolmom has gone on with her life and isn't involved in this swap anymore (who thought it would last almost 1-1/2 yrs.) I could start a new thread but I've been holding off doing that since at some point I know some kind disboarder will offer to take this over and that would be a perfect time to start a new thread.

So, if anyone going soon wants to add something unique to our box, let me know. Also, if you could verify that my name and phone number is still on the box as well as green mickey heads. Oh, I just remembered, that one of the swappers before me last Sept. added a large, white mickey head, with Dizneydaz on it. Who knows, though, if it's still there? If wouldn't hurt to be prepared and bring another one as well as a sign to put inside the frdige that says something like "This fridge belongs to Dizneydaz's swap. If you've received this fridge in error, please return to Luggage Services ASAP so their swappers will have it. Thank You" Also, if someone has a Sharpie marker they could put my name, Terri B..., Dizneydaz, and my phone number on the top of the fridge.

As for being prepared, bring paper, marker, and lots of tape. Thanks. :goodvibes

Note-This will be my last post, probably, for the rest of the day. I have some things to attend to and won't be checking in until, maybe later, in the evening. So, if you've requested dates, and they are open on the list on page 42, then you can assume you'll get them. Also, if you've sent me a PM I will respond by tomorrow (1/9). Thanks everyone, and have a great day. :goodvibes

Okay everyone, I've updated the list. I'll send you PMs tomorrow though since we are leaving in a few minutes to see National Treasure-Book of Secrets.

Talk to you all tomorrow.

If you expected to see your name and don't, let me know. Thanks. Terri
 
Thank you & I hope you enjoy the movie!

I will more than likely be at POP Oct 5- 12. Do you have any openings and what is the cost for this deal? How does it work?

:confused3
 
I would love to join the swap, please. We will be at the Pop from 11/20 - 11/29/08.

I finally planned early enough to hopefully get in! Thanks so much DizneyDaz!
 
I would love to be added to the swap. We will be at POP from 10/5 to 10/12.

Please let me know if this is still available.

Thanks.

Both of your dates are open. :cool1: Send me a PM with your full name (resssie is under); ressie #, check in date; and phone number while at WDW-home # if you won't have one. I will put you in after I receive info. Thanks for joining! :goodvibes
 
Hello, I'm new to POP anything so bear with me. I have a few questions about the fridge swap. I saw on some posts earlier that the dates I would need it are booked. Sept 4-11. So if that is the case are there others out there to swap and how do we find it.
If all else fails I have a collapsible ice chest that I will bring with me. Will only need it for milk and such. The toaster and coffee pot would be great though.

Any info would be appreciated.
Thanks

As of now, I am holding those dates for myself. :goodvibes Sept. is a very popular time with free DDP. As to how to find one with an opening, just keep checking the budget boards to find one. Some also post on the resort thread (for POP). You could also consider starting one up yourself.

As far as the cooler goes, until I started this swap, and when I haven't stayed at a moderate where you get a fridge in each room, sometimes we have just had an inexpensive sytrofoam chest in our room. Works great for milk (for breakfast in the a.m.) and fruit, etc.

As of now, our toaster and coffee pot are gone. :sad2: The coffee pot may be replaced soon though. We got alot of use out of having a toaster in the room. Great for those on the go breakfasts. A couple years ago (before this swap think started) we picked up a cheap ($7-8) at Super Walmart on the way to POP. We always stop on the way in to pick up a few things (like breakfast items, etc.) Since we have a rental vehicle, this is easy for us. If you don't have a vehicle, you could bring down a cheap toaster and just leave it when you go home. This is something I would do if I didn't have a car. The toaster is great for Poptarts, toast, and bagels. :thumbsup2 I'm not a coffee drinker put having the coffee pot did come in handy for my DM who does drink coffee, and my DS who is a tea drinker. Now, during the colder months, I would have really appreciated the hot water for tea.

Hope this helps, and good luck finding your dates.
 
If the penciled in person drops out for Aug 7-15th... I'll take it!
Thanks!
