Refillable Mug Question I have never seen asked.

[CindysGusGus]

I was looking at my POR mug that I got last month and there is a lid at the bottom that can be pulled off. It says not to put liquids in it? What is it for?? Can you put ice in it or a snack?? I am completely clueless.

I think that is a trapped air space ~ there to provide insulation: keep hot things hot, cold things cold, etc. But it might really be there so you can hide condiments from the condiments bar and take them back to your room.

I always assumed it came off to wash the mug and so that the inside would dry.

shhhhhh.....that's a secret hiding space!!!! don't let anyone know about it!

I think its to put cash and stuff maybe?

It is a tracking device. If you try to fill the mug at a resort that the mug was not purchased at it will deactivate the soda machine so you can't fill up and alert Disney security. I seen this happen at the CBR, a guest had a mug from the AS Sports and was going to fill up at CBR but when he tried to fill it nothing happened because of the tracking device on the bottom but he didn't know that. Within about 3 minuets while the guy was still trying to figure out why the machine wouldn't despense his soda 2 security guys came and confiscated his mug and the other mugs from his family of four. His wife and kids were sent back to their rooms at the all star under house arrest for the rest of the day and he was taken in handcuffs to Chef Mickeys where he had to wash dishes untill the Resturant closed that night, afterwards he was taken to the MK where he had to clean every restroom in the park using only a Mickey Mouse toothbrush, each restroom was inspected by Mary Poppins for her aproval before he could be finished, he had no memory of what happened after that but woke up the next morning at 9:30am proped up against his room at the AS Sports wearing a Peter Pan costume and bare feet. His family had all priority seating privileges taken away for the remainder of their stay and when it came time for check out they had to pay the hotel rate as if they had stayed in a tower suite at the GF. So remember, you an only fill up your mugs at the resort they were purchased at during the stay they were purchased.

To any moderators who may be reading this - can we PLEASE have this automatically posted to ANY and ALL refillable mug debates!

[MrsJ Henry]

[thedisneymom]

Hilarious!!!

 

[liznboys]

That was a riot!!!!!!!!

 

[DannyDisneyFreak]

Glad to make some people laugh, but what are the mug debates? Can I have a link? How do you get in a debate about a refillable mug?

 

[ExPirateShopGirl]

I would remind anyone wishing to remove the tracking device and/or transponder from the secure air portion of the refillable mug in order to fill it with condiment packages to do so BEFORE filling the aforementioned refillable mug. Just a friendly tip from one traveler to another. I'm like that.

DannyDisneyFreak, that is too funny! I am crying from laughing so hard.
