The disney survival bag swap... on hold

[mc97]

For those following the end of this topic.... Just want to let you know there's a few changes to the user list. One user has pulled out, and two more have been added. There's only a couple weeks left for this year.

Sent you a PM...if 10/17-22 is open (found two schedules while scanning the thread and wasn't sure which was the most recent) please add us!

 

[SandrA9810]

The one in the first post is always the most current. I won't change any following posts. I will occasionally make posts with the list for other reasons, but those might not always be correct.

MC: You're now added to the list.

 

[sasmmb]

Hi, I see that Mualtida is before me on the list, but I do not see a post by this person, and sending a PM to that name it said user not found. Help?

 

[Momof3princess]

I leave in a few weeks and I still have not heard back from iluvjus.. I have PM'd a few times and got no response...

 

[SandrA9810]

momof3 I haven't had a problem getting in contact with tomlin, maybe you could contact them because I know tomlin has arranged the pass off to them. Both are staying at POP. I'll try to contact luvjus as well and let you know what's going on. I sure don't want it to get lost at POP.

sasmmb: I accidently got the username wrong. My fault, but it's now correct on the front page. I also asked the user to make a quick post on here for easier contact.

 

[Mauldita]

Thank you for fixing the spelling of my username! Now folks can find me....
If only I would spend more time working and less time on here LOL

Any chance of getting a second one of these going? Like on AUGUST 28TH. I totally understand if not. I'll try to get it next year. How can we contribute if we don't get it? If anyone is checking out of ASmovies on the 28th-Sept 1st, I can collect, and possibly start a second "Travel Bag".

 

[SandrA9810]

You might be in luck, I'm not having any luck getting in contact with iluvjus who's dates are from aug 26-31. momof3princess is the person getting it on the 31st, contact her, and I'll put you as an alt for now. I'll also need to get a hold of tomlin for the possible change.

 

[MickeyP]

That would be great! And the next person can def. have it on the 31st. Is this a rolling suitcase? I can't see Baggage Claim getting too upset over dealing with this if it's a suitcase, or do you not get them involved?

 

[SarahandPaul]

Originally I was to give the bag to JillianJewels via the AKL baggage claim, but now she is staying at OKW. We don't have a car...what is the best way to coordinate the handoff? I would be happy to give up the bag a day early if that helps?

 

[SandrA9810]

Well the best thing to do is contact Jillian. See what you two can work out and let me know if you need help.

MickeyP: With this swap I want it to be from user to user, and if need be I'll play "delivery guy". There's some cases were the user will be leaving it with Luggage services just for a day, but at the resort. Because when it comes to them delivering it to different resorts and stuff, that means tips and such. I also don't want the bag to be sitting in luggage claim for a week or two till the next user shows up. And with this swap, it's available for any user at any resort. Quite a few people have been able to work out transfers even using disney transportation, or one person has a car.
There will be occasions that I'll ask to do the delivery so I can clean out and replenish a few things.

Hi all,

Literally just walked in the door from the airport. The pay it forward bag was awesome. The cooler was a godsend. We froze water bottles every night and were able to bring lunch to the parks every day! I left it with luggage services last night so mtomlin should be enjoying it right about now. I have an embarrassing confession. My daughter stole the spinning Minnie. I will send it back, as soon as I can, perhaps Sandra can PM me her home address to have it added back. I am really sorry. She fell in love with it and took it back out of the suitcase after I had packed it. We threw in some wipes, a few bottles of water and some AA batteries as well as some crayons and construction paper. It was really great - thanks to all of you who contributed.

This almost happened to us, too!
As I was about to walk out the door to bring the bag to you I noticed the DVC notepad sitting on the desk. Seems that a little someone in my room took it back out...

Glad to hear you're back safely!!

Hi all,

too funny!! This made me laugh. So this bag can become a great teaching tool for us...

 

[SandrA9810]

I think I'll need to find more spinning Minnie toys. Even Evie's daughter wanted to hang on to it, and she had to sneak it in the bag before handing it off to me.

Thanks for having such a great trip report.

And Kari has finally emailed me my file log of all this. I've felt so lost without it. I hope the end of this month works out just fine and there's no problems. I still haven't heard a word from iluvjus... How can any one disappear like that, this place is way too addicting.

 

[MickeyP]

I don't know but I'm glad she/he did! What's the plan for mtomlin66 trading off because they are already there. I will be checking in on Aug 28th at ASMovies. I HAVE to be at work Monday nite, so we will be checking out Monday morning, the 31st.

 

[MinnieVanMom]

We have 35 days to go! My two people have been great so far. The drop off to me is going to be that she leaves it at my resort in the baggage area. Then my drop off is that the person asked I again leave it at my resort baggage claim and she will pick it up. Easy peasy lemon squeeze!

I didn't make any clothes yet and don't know if I will get a skirt done as I am working FT right now. I hope I can but no promises. We still have the new in package boys pull ups and what ever else I can find.

Thanks again for all the effort and this swap. DH normally will not allow us in a swap but this one he is all for.

Can't wait either! We're just a few days behind you! VERY excited about our trip...and the swap bag.

BTW minnie, I'm right after you and my daughter is an 8
no really, no pressure, we will be THRILLED with whatever is in the bag!!!!!!!

TO: laura & parker's, I think I might do a pick up and delivery between the two of you. Hopefully we can get Minnie back into the bag. And the few things I've collected here at my aunts. It's amazing what you can find when things sit around for 6 years.

I'll have the bag in Sept/Oct but I have a few Disney spinning toys that I will probably add...I say "probably" because I may run into the same thing with my little ones when we are packing up.
