So I decided to call again to see if any pins were attached to my name and the only ones were the two my DH received for the QSFD through 8/14. Which doesn't help since we are going 10/2. I spoke to a really nice CM. He said, "Well, just because its only good through 8/14 doesn't mean they won't extend it." I said, "I know, that's what I am hoping for!"
He then said, "Just make sure to keep checking the Disney website and even sites like Mousesavers, they seem to have the info before we do!" I said, "I check everyday, all day, lol" He said a new one might come out by the end of the month...hmmm. I said, well I heard rumors of it being May 3rd? He said he had heard that date also but they can't really release that info. He said sometimes they don't know until right before its released.
I then asked if it makes a difference if you already HAVE a ressie or if its a NEW ressie whether you get the discount. He said they only have so many rooms per resort for the codes and regardless of if you have a ressie or not, its basically first come first serve. So he said to keep an eye on the boards and as soon as I see a discount out there to call. If its available in the resort I am staying in, they just apply it to my ressie. If not, then I can switch resorts if I want.
HTH!
BUT, at least I know I'm in the proverbial "system" of Disney Destinations!! Even though it was the video planning email, it was still exciting to get - at this point it doesn't really take much to make me happy
I have set up new e-mails in my name and now have one in my mom's name since she is coming with me instead of DH. We are not going until December 3rd so there is still time, I guess, but this is killing me...lol. Now she is asking me if we received a PIN yet!!
