Staying @ POP & want to decorate your window?We need someone to Takeover the thread!

Michele DD insists I need to call Pop and tell them I am shipping a package or they will not hold it, Is she right??

 

[DisneyMommyMichelle]

Nope, i never called. As long as i had delivery confirmation when i arrived, they knew what to look for

i've shipped loads of boxes before...LOADS!

 

[DisneyMommyMichelle]

YUP MIA boxes still

DMM - if you would like me to send these claim tickets somewhere - I need an address! Also was thinking if it might be a good idea for someone to call on the 10th and pretend to be the person who is suppose to be picking up the boxes and then inform them that due to an emergency change in plans we need to change the info on the boxes? Maybe the boxes will surface magically around the reported pick up date? Also I was thinking about our experiences with luggage services and if I recall correctly they were always extremely busy in the mornings and late afternoons, but there seemed to be somewhat of a break midday and it seemed to get very, very slow late at night. Perhaps we should attempt things when they are least busy in hopes that they might be more willing to take the time looking for them? Just trying to think of something, anything to help!

I will get you an addy after 2angels makes this trip she will be going this week i believe and then we will see what happens. I know she did go at around 8pm and they were not to be found. So it wasn't that busy then...hmm..i'm sure they will turn up.

Hopefully they can be found and if so, we will figure out a way to get some money together and get the stuff into rubbermaid boxes. If anyone makes a trip to TARGET or something like that, can you please price some BRIGHT containers?? The medium size will work best! thanks!!

 

[Newfie2000]

Adding my congratulations!!! (and awe that you will have THREE!!! I can't handle ONE!!!)

I was at K-mart just now and they have Bright Lime Green Plastic Tubs by Homz...I couldn't find pricing, but think they were around $7.00ish a piece...The only thing I would do is add a bungee cord over the top to insure they stay closed!! I was going to pick them up, but how to get them to the right person??? And wasn't sure who that would be??? I would be willing to send $$ by Paypal to the person that is going next or I can try K-mart.com and have them shipped to WDW...

Please let me know your thoughts...

Not to worry....they will be found Newfie2000...I imagine you are terribly distraught, but you shouldn't be!!! You did everything right, so it is just
a little bump in the road!!

I think we MIGHT be able to send them either to 2Angels if they are found and she could take them with her and do the switch over??

OR i am totally willing to have them shipped straight to the POP (YIKES!!) but to me and i can do it all..HOWEVER i am not going until May?

 

[Dustball]

Uh Oh!!! Should have checked first....no tubs available on line...can I paypal someone the $???

Stephanie

 

[DisneyMommyMichelle]

I should be able to pick them up and ship them down to myself when time comes. We will have to figure in the price of shipping & the containers and then we will see who is willing to donate

 

[themudd4]

I am next on the list for box 2...
I will get out and look this weekend and assuming I find them I will pick up at least 1 if not 2 of the rubbermaid containers. I think I even have a couple of extra bungie cords floating around the garage I will have to look.
To keep them straighten out would you like 2 different colors? No promises but I will look anyway. I will also try and swing by HD and grab some LGMH's, and a few little cheap odds and ins for the windows and doors.

Also, I noticed that SORUL82 will be there 3/30-4/1 2007 who is next for box 1. If I get them I will be there during there stay and I will pass the new box 1 to them and avoid Pop all together...assuming all this works out. Might be an empty box, but it would at least be there!

Also, COngrats DMM!!!

 

[Dustball]

Sorry Michelle for not getting back to you sooner....American Idol tonight kept me away from the computer!!! I would definitely contribute to the cost of the new containers....I checked Kmart.com and unfortunately NO containers online, sorry!!!!!

Please let me know who gets the $$ and how to get it to them!!!

It will all be straightened out soon!!!!!

 

[disneyfanz04]

If new boxes need to be started I will gladly stock up on some stuff to contribute to the boxes, although we won't be there till May 3rd????

I still don't understand how Disney does not have to compensate for boxes that they lost because we do have claim tickets???????????? I mean can they really say oh well we lost your boxes tuff luck????

 

[sorul82?]

I think now I am lost! Are both boxes missing? I didn't have time to go back and read but a few pages. Do I need to start a new box 1?

This kind of bothers me also! Why did I go through the bother of checking them in and getting a claim ticket if it is useless? Just doesn't make a whole lot of sense to me - I would think they would try a little harder or put a little extra effort into locating them. And how in the world can they misplace 2 out of 2 boxes checked in at different times?
