Isn't that like a Costco or Sam's Club? We don't have those here.

How are things going?

Exactly! It's the only wholesaler we have up here. I loved Costco when I lived in NJ. BJs is a little more basic, however they carry a lot of organic stuff now so I save a bit of cash

I love Costco, also, much better than Sam's Club -- though we have a membership to both.

I'm still waiting for our weather to break - how have things been for you? Getting more done w/the house?

I was reading the rules of the Monsters University contest over at Disney movie rewards. This caught my eye,

"Travel is not permitted on the following dates: 2013: December 19 – 31; 2014: March 10 - 31"

I wonder why these March dates are blocked out.

We hopefully got our final snow storm last week and just anxiously awaiting for it to melt away.... However this morning I didn't need to turn the heat up.... :Yay: now we just need it to get warm enough so we can paint the outside of our house.... I'm pretty nervous, and things are changing too with work (not a bad thing) so I am at such a loss of where to go!

Costco is awesome, if we had the choice we would go there....

Hope the weather gets warm quickly for you so you can get moving on the projects you need to do.

We're still in a holding pattern - there's still snow on the ground here with no end in sight.

Oh well, pretty soon Summer will be here and then we can all complain about how hot is is, right?

-----------------------------

We still haven't decided on what we're doing next year. I want WDW, my husband is on the fence. Hopefully he'll decide soon so I can continue planning!

Snowed again some here today in Northern Ohio - I'm so ready for warm weather!

After seeing crowd reports I definitely decided next April is not an option for us - I'm spoiled in that I like the end of September with low crowds so we may stick with November so DD is out of school less time or we may pull her out for 4 days. We will have to see..

I think my dad is trying to get us just to move the trip up to this year so he doesn't have to wait as long to go back (just my parents are going this time - no in-laws!!!) Although they're getting a little taste of Disney next week (and bringing me back some!) They're taking a road trip to St. Augustine to buy the wine that my mom likes (they can't ship to Ohio) so I've talked them into heading to Goofy's Candy Company as long as they'll be in Florida for some snacks

We Buckeyes need a break! Think it's every going to really be Spring? I'm starting to have my doubts ...

I love September also for the low crowds, but it is so hot! Last year was just unbearable and I pretty much said never again.

So what are you getting from Goofy's? Do tell!

That's how I felt last week, but now we we are having warmer days.... It's coming!

Should I keep sending subliminal messages to your DH??? .....WDW......WDW......WDW.......WDW.........

In all our trips we have never been to Goofys.....

Soon.... what's your weather look like? We have highs of mid 40s over the next week and I'm excited!!

 

[BearcatsFan]

Definitely on the subliminal messages - I'm trying for a solo trip next year!

For the weather - the last time we had a big late spring snow storm up here was 5 years ago - the day my niece was born (March 27). 3 weeks later to the date on 4/17 DD was born and it was 70 degrees, so there's hope...

As for Goofy's DD likes a lot of the Minnie's Bake Shop cookies and both kids like the big lollipops then for me I like the Mickey gummies for sure and I have to decided what else I want yet

My husband loves those Minnie's Bake Shop cookies also - he's obsessed with the chocolate chip. He says they're *almost* as good as my homemade ones (yeah, I trained him well ).

Those cookies are good.... I'm so craving sweets.... I'm on an 8 week junk food fast I can't even go on Pinterest anymore!!!

Snowed a bit in southern Ontario this morning too. I'm so done.

I forgot I ordered the Disney vacation DVD a while back and it came today. The kids are on the second viewing of it now. I must say as far as marketing tools go this thing is fantastic. I already took a quick look at prices to see if there was any way we could get there sooner, I don't want to wait anymore.

ETA: We keep telling my son that we can go when we save enough money and he just asked me if we can go tell the stores that they need to make things cost less so we can save more money. Oh, don't I wish the world worked the way my 4 year old thinks it should.

I'm scared to go to Pinterest - I'm afraid I'll abandon the DIS! It's bad enough when I go over to the Creative DISigns board, I'm on there for hours. I can't even imagine how much of a time suck Pinterest could be for me.

I think we're all pretty much sick of snow/cold/grey/yuck by now. I know I am, anyhow! Bring on the sunshine, says I!

I didn't order the new DVD because I knew we wouldn't be going back for a while. Is it much different from the old versions, do you know?

That's really cute of your son - how we all wish it worked that way!

Pinterest is a life sucker..... lots of neat stuff though but man the food people post!!!

I'm trying to remember what was on the 2011 video, that's the last one I saw. I don't think much has changed. There's some AoA stuff on this one and a bit about new FantasyLand. The FL stuff is mainly just showing the concept art, there are a few shots of new Dumbo but not much else. I was hoping for some new pics or video of BoG but no luck there. My favourite part has to be the dining section, lots of clips of footage that has to be from the mid 90's, if the pastel pantsuits and coloured overalls with one strap undone are any indication.
