    When did your kids start buying their own tickets?

    I have 3 kids (9, 6, 1 1/2). I can't imagine them being teens or even now, and telling them we are going on vacation, oh, but you have to pay your way. How ridiculous. Earn spending money from chores ect.? Sure. I plan on having the oldest 2 do stuff around the house to earn spending money...

    Concerned about theme park pricing

    I think its ridiculous that disney prices so many people out of being able to go. Ive never been to disneyworld. The cost has just been too outrageous. We do however, have a trip planned for September 2018. I'm in california, so the cost just to get there is a few thousand. There is no road trip...

    Taking DS out of school for Disney advice

    I'm taking my kids out of school for our 2018 trip. My school aged kids will be in 2nd grade and 5th grade. This is our one and only trip to disneyworld so I'm not too concerned with what the school thinks. The school does have a travel study program where you have to notify the school a few...

    How do you store your GCs

    I just started buying gift cards a few months ago for my trip in 2018. I don't plan on combining them until right before we leave. I'm not using them to pay off my trip or anything like that just for suvinors. I don't buy them in high dollar amounts either. They are stored in a safe place only I...

    Need help and Ideas- Christmas gift exchange

    I agree with a pp to avoid smelly items. Lots of people are sensitive to smells. I really don't Iike it when people buy me scented stuff. 99% of the time its going in the trash because I just don't like it. I'm super super picky about scents. I only like fruity stuff so floral or holiday or...

    Recenty back... quick review

    The first thing I thought reading this was bed bugs. are you sure the "ticks" weren't bed bugs? Too late now, but always check for them before you bring your luggage into the room. a huge reason why hotels gross me out.

    Ruined Christmas Surprises

    Op, I'd be pretty annoyed by that. you said multiple times noto to open packages ect, and that was completely ignored. wrapping empty boxes is super weird though. I've never heard of that before. I don't like people touching my stuff. if I order something, no one but me gets to open it. I...

    I love credit cards so much!

    Can someone help me? I applied for a disney visa last week and got a denial letter today. the denial reason states "lack of recent consumer finance company account information". I'm assuming that is because I have not had or used a credit card for almost 6 years and i dont have recent...

    When to wear a birthday button

    Maybe it's different in disneyworld, but we went to Disneyland for my son's 7th birthday 2 years ago. he wore a shirt I made and a birthday button (it was his actual birthday) and I don't recall anyone wishing him a happy birthday. No one asked about our first visit buttons or celebrating...

    How much was/is the cost of your trip?

    I have never been to disneyworld, but I know the cost can be ridiculous. we are planning a trip for 2018 and my guesstimate just for flight, moderate hotel (no way am I paying for a family suite in a value. we're looking at Port orleans riverside) and 5 or 6 day single park tickets is for 5...

    Dooney & Bourke Disney collaboration ~ part 4

    I wish they'd come out with a nice princess print. I love love the 2016 princess marathon print, but not willing to pay 3rd party prices for it. I wish it would be released as a regular print. I saw a picture on a Facebook group of a black sketch that was from some kind of sample sale. a black...

    What do YOU want for Christmas?

    I usually don't ask for stuff and I really don't like people getting me stuff. I'd rather my kids get what they want rather than money being wasted on me. I do 95% of the cooking and if I feel the need to ask for something, it's usually kitchen or household related. i would really love a new...

    I love credit cards so much!

    Not sure where to ask this, but has anyone been approved for a disney visa (or any credit card) by using their spouses income? I am a stay at home mom and have been for almost 9 years so I don't have income of my own other than my husbands. About 6 years ago I had an issue with a citi bank card...

    Luggage/ flight question.. anyone know

    That's pretty......insane. Just ship it from amazon or something. Would an airline even allow that? I've had an entire bottle of hairspray spray all.over my clothes on a flight from ca to hawaii. All my clothes were covered in a sticky mess. Good thing it was contained to my bag only and I was...

    Dooney & Bourke Disney collaboration ~ part 4

    How often do patterns get discontinued? There's a pattern that my sister and I love on disneystore.com. I have no idea when it came out. It's the best of mickey cross body bag. We have a trip planned for 2018 and would love to have it. I don't have the extra money for it right now. It's the only...

    Disney 2018

    Planning for September 2018. No clue on dates or where we're staying. Places to stay are limited for a family of 5, but I'm pretty sure it's either port orleans riverside or carribean beach resort. My family of 5, my sisters family of 5, my mom, and brother will be there. None of us have ever...

    >> Shipping To & From Disney Resorts FAQ <<

    In regards to shipping suvinors home, is there an actual post office or ups or fedex near disney property? Or is it easier/better to ship from property? We will have a car for at least one day since we are planning a trip to the kennedy space center. If an item you purchase is extremely fragile...
