pressed pennies at Aulani?

[mathgeek]

Is there a pressed penny machine at Aulani? There is at Vero and Hilton Head, but I hadn't seen any information about Aulani.

We stayed at Aulani in April, and no there wasn't a pressed penny machine there then

Definitely still not. I asked that just two days ago, for my kids. They were sad!! Ask the concierge like I did, and maybe they'll think about putting one in if enough of us ask!

They have pressed penny machines at Pearl Harbor, if you're going there. Not sure if this is a Disney-specific pressed penny collection or just as a memento of your trip.

Any others around the island that you found? Is it worth it to schlep my M&M tube across the Pacific??? LOL

We generally only get Disney ones, so we didn't pay a whole lot of attention on our excursions. One of the kids did spot one at Sea Life park; it's under construction, so there is a chance they'll move it or have that area blocked off... I'd hate for you to go there for that reason b/c it's pricey, but if you're going anyway - it was near the end of the shark exhibit last week. That's the only other one I can think of, though.

There are many other places on Oahu where you can get them. I know we got some at the Dole Plantation, Matsumoto's Shave Ice and on the boat where we went whale watching. You can find a full list for Hawaii here:

Let's all keep asking though, I would love to get Aulani pennies!

Don't worry, I'd never go just for a penny! But thank you for the info!

Cool!! Looks like there are several in places we're going. Guess I'll pack the tube just in case! What's ONE more thing in the carry-on, right??!?! LOL
