Royal carriage swap-#1 STROLLER-MISSING-FOUND-MISSING AGAIN

[lfwhipp]

I know exactly how you feel! I was so excited when Jazzi was able to help me out. Boy am I glad she did, I couldn't even touch Ohana and CM at all this morning. I could have gotten CP but it was at 3:40. I don't think so....lol

Enjoy and have a wonderful time!

Ah dont tell me that! I need a CM for our last night there and a CRT too, i'm trying to decide now which to go for first... esp since some wonderful, kind hearted angel took care of the Le Cellier...

 

[parkers*momma]

What day and time do you need CM?

 

[lfwhipp]

What day and time do you need CM?

I am looking for 9/25 around 4:30p, before MNSSHP that night.

 

[parkers*momma]

Darn, I can't help you there! As for CRT...I think I would nail that one first and get it in the cart and then pop over to CM.

Here's what I did with the online bookings...I opened to several windows and had all the info up so all I had to do was click and enter the codes and as soon as one went into my cart, I typed in the code for the next one. You can open all the windows you need as the magic hour of 6am florida time.

I was online at 6:00 am opening windows and by 6:15 I had all of my ressies. AS soon as you type in the security code and hit enter it goes into your cart...you have up to 2 hours to finish.

WIth CM and MNSSHP, you can get in (or at least used to) to MK at 4pm even though the party doesn't start until later. So if you make it an odd hour for CM, you shouldn't have to much of a problem getting it (3:00, 4:00)

Good Luck...I hope you nail those two also!

thats what i will do then.... ugh to get up at 4:50am on a sunday.... what i will do for a ressie

i was hoping i h=could have multiple windows open and pop between them. does it all go into the same cart and you check out all at one time? and this is after you add in your reservation number first right? ahh i feel the need to "play" with the system before sunday.... gosh i am so anal when it comes to disney ADR's

 

[tinkerbelle21]

I see people are talking about their ADR's, I too am excited about reserving mine! I got everything but Le Celliar, oh well. We are doing Hollywood & Vine with Fantasmic and going to Hoop-de-Doo and Chef Mickeys! I think I have everything planned, now just counting down the days!

 

[parkers*momma]

Keep trying online for LeCelliers. It's been said by CMs that they open a certain amount of tables on 90+10, another amount of tables at 90, and the last at 45. you might still get it on your 90 day or 45 day mark. HTH

 

[mickeymom24]

Okay, I got in contact with the swappers for #1. We will be without a stroller for one day but not a big deal. My only concern was when I picked up #1 was that since it is in CanonBoys name, will I have a problem picking it up? Will they ask for ID or will I be okay with just the reciept number? I haven't heard from MouserMom09 but can call her if you don't hear from her.

 

[princesses&pirates]

I am glad not to be part of this drama, but may offer a reason why that seat isnt holding up. When I replaced the seat in #2, there is nothing under the seat to offer extra support for the weight. It is only the seat itself and all the pressure of the wieght in it in on that center seam. There is some fabric that crosses underneath the seats that maybe acting as support, but it is only there for looks. To me, this is a design flaw, but could be handled by gentle care(by toddlers, yeah right--not even the gentlest, lol) My girls, 10 months-30lb, and 4 years-45lbs, rode in #2 only once while we were taking it to the next swapper. It was confy for them, but continued use must have worn on it. The canopy was cheap too. Not sure how you tear one of them up though. I obviously dont know the other swappers, but it seems like the swappers could be taken care of much better.

Good luck swappers!

 

[disneynuts777]

I cannot believe that the seat ripped again!!!
If the cloth seat is the only thing supporting the weight thats alot to ask of a seat that is being used to capacity every single day
It could also be from kids standing in the seats to get a better look at something.
I hope that we can get #2 back on its feet!!!!

 

[Artist]

Mrsdennison you are now swapping #1 and #4 with Artist

Artist you are now swapping #1 with MG61218 and #4 with jenok0426

dolfinjuls you are now recieving #2 from MouserMom09 and leaving #2 for JGoin

No drama this time... Just trying to get the stroller fixed and the incoming swapper shifted around.

I have a feeling you are right. #1 and #2 are the original strollers and lasted a long time with the original seats. I think the replacement parts are not made as sound as the originals.

I talked to the current swapper and her children are a combined weight of just under 60#...way WAY under the listed manufacturer's listed weight limitation of 100#.

As for the canopy...I haven't a clue and actually never even thought about asking her about the "hole" and if the canopy is now not useable or if it is just sitting a tad bit slanted. I was more concerned about the seat and making sure she had other options besides renting (which she did). She is heading back today, so hopefully we can get a better idea on the canopy.

I still appreciate all you did for the swap. I hope all the future swappers will be as awesome as you were with donating items. Thank you again!

 

[parkers*momma]

Ok, I've email mousermom09...hopefully she checks her email soon so she doesn't get to WDW to find a damaged stroller.

Keep your fingers crossed.

Have a good day everyone.

Hi Maddy-

We have the #2 stroller reserved for Sept 22 through the 27th, we have decided to rent a stroller from A baby's best friend. I am worried that with everything that has been happening to the strollers that there is not going to be anything left of them in september. It was wonderful the last time we used it and I don't want to take a chance of not having a workable stroller this time. Thanks for everything you have done with the swaps!!

Thanks

I completely understand especially since you have lil ones. I'll remove you from the swap. Have a magical trip and see you there--could happen.

 

[mickeymom24]

We are taking three kids, but only 2 will use the stroller. I weighed the oldest(she is not using the stroller but her younger brother is at camp) and youngest and their combined weight is 84 lbs. I am hoping and praying too that nothing happens. I am especially going to make sure that they sit on it very gently as to opposed to just hopping on. Wish us luck!

 

[lfwhipp]

Just dropping in to say hi!

 

[disneynuts777]

Maddi.....just thought that I would send some pixie dust before I head to bed. Hopefully things are getting worked out.
I'll check in tomorrow
