Pre-order photopass??

[momof2chipmunks]

We check in 9 days from now. I have heard if you pre-order the photopass CD, you can get a $50.00 discount. However, I went to the photopass website and found no such offer. Does anyone have any more info on how to pre-order the pass at a discounted price (codes??)?
TIA!

Were leaving in 9 days to.

I posted this on another thread:

Ours came in a Disney Destination email


There's so much to see!
The Marion Family vacation is getting close! There are so many wonderful things to see and do, we thought you might like a few handy links, customized recommendations and helpful travel info to keep your vacation plans running right on track.



(link was at the very bottom)

and it came right at the 45 day mark~ (Mid Oct)

Thanks for your reply. I'm starting to worry that I lost out on the opportunity Bummer!!! We are actually driving. SIL lives in Georgia so we will be visiting with her also. Not too sure about 17 hour car ride with a 4 and 2 year old!!! Happy travels to you! I think I can safely say GO BUCKS!!!??

I've read it makes a difference on how you booked. Like the email was only available if you booked directly through Disney. Everyone that booked with a TA or through AAA is not eligible for the discount.

You could also try calling them, it couldn't hurt~

Wow that a long car ride! I hope it goes smooth for you!

All 4 of my kids are in school so were really pressed to get them back fast.

And if you see a large group with red Buckeye Crocs, say hi!

Have a great trip!

Are you staying at onsite? YOu have to be now to get the discount. I havent received mine either (I am going in a little less than 3 weeks), but it is because I booked thru a TA. Anyway, on one of the other sites, if you havent received within 10 days of your departure, to call up Disney and explain that you did not recieve and they will give you a code for the discount. I am not sure how it will work, but you may want to give it a try. I know I will try when it gets closer for me. I hope it works for you!!

I meet all the requirements and haven't gotten an email either. So right now it seems sporadic on who gets them. I read on another thread that the photopass people have said the e-mails are sent out between 45 and 10 days before your trip. I am not holding my breath about getting one but did send an email to photopass to ask them about it.

Please post when you receive a respnse. We are staying at the SoG resort so we probably will not get the discount.

I leave in 20 days and only got mine last week.It does not say Photopass on it.It is in the form of a newsletter type email to "The XXX Family" , at the very botton there is a photopass icon and when you click it then the offer comes up.Check your filters and your junk mail.For some reason all the Disney emails go to my inbox, but this one went into the junk file

OP here. We are staying onsite and booked directly through Disney. I called Photopass and asked about the discount. The CM told me that only some people receive an email offering the discount. He said the email is sent out anywhere from 45 days to 10 days prior to arrival. I told him I did not receive an email and asked if he could give me a code for the discount. He said that he was not able to do this and that only those who receive the email are eligible. I am completely bummed! I don't know if I can justify spending $150 on the CD and the single pics are outrageously priced!!

I think you have to call Disney directly (not Photopass) for the code. I am certainly going to try 10 days out if I dont get the email before then. $50 is a huge amount to save.

Here is my response from e-mailing Photopass:

Greetings Leigh,

Thank you for your recent visit to DisneyPhotoPass.com.

The pre-arrival savings offer is made available through the marketing department of Disney Destinations. In order to receive this prepurchase offer, the guest must meet the following guidelines:

-Have an upcoming reservation in a Walt Disney World Hotel

-Have their email address on file in the marketing database

-Have opted in to receive email from the Walt Disney World company.

If you meet these requirements, you can expect to see this email (called "Magical Musts") about
10-45 days prior to your arrival. Note that the email contains planning information for your trip and that the Disney's PhotoPass offer is just a small section of the email.

Once you have received this email, you are within a safe time frame in which to make your prepurchase without worry that your promotional
credit(s) will expire.

*Please note that this link is only available for one pre-Purchase offer and must be purchased prior to your arrival date as this is directly linked to your reservation. This link is non-transferable. This offer will expire at 11:59 PM the day prior to your arrival date.

If you do not receive this offer, it could be because your email address is not on file and/or permission was not granted to send marketing messages to you. Also, if you booked through a travel agent, we may not have your email address in our database.

If you are a Disney Vacation Club member please contact member services at 800-******** for further assistance.

The pre-arrival savings offer is meant for guests who purchase before their trip.

If you have lost your email or offer, we regret that we are not able to replace or extend it as this offer is not sent out by DisneyPhotoPass.com.

Sincerely,

Deborah
