The Most Expensive Free Trip Ever - TR Link is Up! Pg. 164

[glennbo123]

I mainly lurked after checking in on your TR. I might do it again I'll try not to, but no promises!

Happy New Year!!

onelilspark!!!

That's not a problem at all...chime in when feel the urge.

The last installment went up this afternoon on my TR, by the way.

Oooooh. Sorry I was so dense....still thinking about the last Rations Drop clue.

Boy, I didn't mean to suck you in that hard!!! HA!!

NO worries~ I can be dense with the best of them!

Just now joining.. Trying to avoid the boards in anticipation of our trip in 32 days.. long story!

It is the best thing to win a trip to WDW!!! We won one about four years ago with my DH's former work, which I will be proud to state the name of (because they are now closed- perhaps they shouldn't have been giving away trips): Linens N Things! Had I done a PTR at the time it would have been "The Cheapest Free Trip Ever" They paid for everything, again, but didn't manage to keep my DH in a job, now did they? You can see my PTR to see why I am slightly bitter about that! Long story short current employers are not what you would call... um... nice in any way.

Congrats on your upcoming trip...all of us here will want to hear about it!

I just read somewhere that of the many stores to go out of business over the past year, Linens N Things was the one most cited by women as the one they'll miss the most. Circuit City claimed the top spot for men.

I was checking the DIS from my phone this morning...I got a new phone and am trying to learn how to navigate the web better with it....anyway, went onto your thread and saw the answer. The white font shows up as gray. So now I'm sittin' here going "duh". I couldn't get off the chocolate part of the clue. I knew it had to be Goofy's Candy Company, so thought that was the answer, but it didn't fit with canines and hockey sticks.

And for those of you reading this post who aren't on Liesa's thread (All7OfUs), that last sentence was probably the strangest thing you've ever read. So, you'll just have to check out what goes on on her PTR!

OK, so I"m a doofus, and didn't realize that the $5 TR was yours. Just posted and promise to read it front to back over the next few days. Call me lame...

 

[glennbo123]

Call me lame...

I would never do that.

 

[All7OfUs]

I would never do that.

Spare me!

 

[glennbo123]

Spare me!

Glad you mentioned this. I had unsubscribed from it thinking you were all done! Silly me

Just finished the TR-thanks for putting up that last update. Your pics are really good, family looks so fun and it looks like you all had a great time! I wish we were going at the same time-your girls would make great babysitters What a fun trip you had, looking forward to reading all the plans for this one.

 

[luckylady]

I followed you over from you TR which was great. Can't wait to read more PTR. Looks like I will miss you by about 2 1/2 weeks(if the other house sells)

 

[GreatBiscuit]

I'll give you a run-down on the pies...

My mom's house:
pecan
blueberry
chocolate (pudding)
white christmas (coconut meringue)
banana caramel

My in-law's:
banana cream
key-lime

I'd say that's worth the trip.

Favorite Drew Carry Show quote of all time:

"Hey Drew, what do you like on your salad?"

"Pie."



Oh that was funny. You had to be there. Quit staring at me like that.

Somehow I've missed your TR.

Got something to read tomorrow!

Glad you found it. It had been a while since the last update, so easy to miss.

Thank you. I have a great family -- I'm a very lucky man. You're right, my daughters are great babysitters. Unfortunately, they don't get a lot of work though, there aren't any babies in our neighborhood.

luckylady!! Glad you came over from the trip report. Good luck on selling your house. I know how stressful that can be.

I must've missed that episode, but I can hear Drew saying it.

Hope you enjoy the TR. I apologize that I've peeked in on yours, but was intimidated by the amount of reading I'll have to do to get caught up. I will probably have to wait until I'm back at work and have more time.

It intimidates me sometimes I and WROTE the blasted thing! No worries. I know how it goes.

 

[jordanyosh]

I missed the man talk.....bummer.

All caught up. Nice Christmas tree. We bought a real one two years ago and my youngest hated the smell which is the reason I miss them the most. Oh well! Never got to pick one from a tree farm tho.

My kids get out of school 6/18 this year so I don't even know which week I will go yet.

 

[All7OfUs]

Let me be the first to wish you a Happy New Year- being that I'm the farthest away, and only have 6 hours left!!

Thanks for understanding. I'll make it there someday!

Check back frequently, you never know when we'll be quoting Drew Carey, Monty Python, Seinfeld, Jim Gaffigan, The Princess Bride....

Glad you made it over from the TR.

Hated the smell???!!! Did you tell him/her that they bottle the stuff and sell it?

Aw thanks. Let us know when it's midnight in Blankistan!
