[prattpak]

Dont flame me for this but I have something of possible serious content to ask here.
The current promo for WDW ends on sunday. When and what do you think the next one will be?

 

[DisneyDadC]

I will have my "in your little neck of the woods" info posted soon.Thanks to all the dads that left comments about their neck of the woods.So far looks like I am going to try to visit the lovely state of CT.A nice house on a lake some where in the woods would be some nice quiet time for the family.If house doesnt work out maybe a nice camping trip up there will be in order.
Now if only the two "travel agents" from them there neck of the woods would pm me with any good places they could recommend for this type of trip.It would be helpfull

 

[Captain_Oblivious]

Thanks!

We will! Packing now...will hit the road as soon as DS6 gets out of school tomorrow.

Have a great time!

On a side note, DW just said...."What about a summer trip to Disney"...

All in favor raise a hand...

SO I posed this question in the DCL boards,

If you could choose between the parks or a DCL cruise which one would you choose for your vacation for the rest of your life? The 'rules' for which one is on the main post.

The thread is http://www.disboards.com/showthread.php?t=2686150 if you want to throw some man weight around on those boards.. hahaha.

I weighed in...but let's be honest. By posting this on the DCL board, what do you think the outcome will be?

Okay! I'll do some research (and by that I mean I'll ask my wife...)

I weighed in...but let's be honest. By posting this on the DCL board, what do you think the outcome will be? :

LOL this board moves fast. I was always wondering why I could never keep up at work on my phone. If I would have posted on the main forums it wouldn't even be a contest. But those one he DCL boards have typically done both. Tbh, in our house its a DCL World because that is how my wife rolls and my kid.... *sigh* he just wants a pool. lol. Speaking of cruises, we are booking our 3rd one today on podcast 4.0. So I have to wait even longer for a WdW trip...again.

Oh yeah, I'm a HUGE Florida Gator Fan, but there was a part of me that wanted to see more Jimmer. That kid can shoot from anyway! Reminds me of the old Micheal Jordan/Larry Byrd Mcdonald's Commerical "Nothing but Net"

 

[DisneyFed]

Man, I'm way down on the list this time....must change this

 

[Emma's Dad]

I'll sign up for this...looks like a lot of laughs....Brent from Mississauga ON Canada, 37, work for our provincial Liquor retailer (LCBO)...

Welcome to the laughing spot! LOL! You are member # 574!

WELCOME TO THE DIS DAD'S CLUB!

You have been added to the DIS Dad's Club list

 

[Emma's Dad]

Yeah...I take the blame I was encouraged everyone to crank it up to the finish! Still a bit too early to do that again this time

Please, PLEASE don't crank it up yet!

Yesterday we went to pay off more of our trip, I had to laugh because our agent was asking me ?'s, they weren't sure off on few things at the parks & When Legoland is opening & where it was

Take 'em to school! This is why I like doing my own travel planning...

 

[Cinderella's Fella]

Wow, over a hour without a post.

Is it safe?

 

[Emma's Dad]

Yeah... I tend to be a thread killer

Maybe other threads but not this one.
You can't kill the signal.

Hmmm... your restraint is commendable

I just might have to increase my posts, now that we're keeping score.

 

[dvczerfs]

Dont flame me for this but I have something of possible serious content to ask here.
The current promo for WDW ends on sunday. When and what do you think the next one will be?

im waiting for a summer room only discount!! not even a ann. pass holder promo!! the last time i talked to a cm, they told me the bookings are up for this summer. probley wont find a room only. maybe a pkg deal.

 

[dvczerfs]

Hmmm... your restraint is commendable

Why would we flame you for asking a question? We might mock, but we don't flame here. We leave that to other threads...

But seriously...

It's a funny thing about promos, they do end...but of course if the company doesn't feel bookings are strong enough, a new one will come along. For a number of years the Free Dining promos were announced in late March or early April, but thos got stretched, pushed and pulled during this econmy, so that probably won't resurface next since the 2011 dates came out last fall. I'm no expert, but my guess is something will be released in the next couple of weeks.
