Thanks again everyone, I did ask for opinions and I'm grateful for the advice. I would never ask anyone else to do this, but I do find myself in a less common situation in that I can travel a lot via air and as such I prefer to spend time visiting different places and that does mean stretching...

I'll dissent with the crowd as well...I would probably make it a point to be outside at the same time "coincidentally" and make a comment along the lines of "hey, good to see you again, yard looks great, blah blah blah...hey I wanted to mention my toddler/relative staying with me/friends leaving...

There are crazies everywhere, I couldn't agree more! I know everyone means well, but frankly I'm no less scared of staying in a car for a quick overnight than I would be staying at a stranger's house...with them there (which, by the way, I have done the couchsurfing thing before so I'm not...

Thanks all! Lots of good ideas and I appreciate the advice! Lots of magical days to you each!:smickey:

I've flown extensively and packed wine in many a checked bag (either taking with me or bought where I was visiting) and never had a problem. Just pack well - TSA won't give you any grief, I'm guessing this happens all. the. time. If you want a good laugh on this topic - I once brought back 2...

No worries Tygerlilly, I just thought I'd mention it as it's something that's helped me in my situation and the DR program offers info on all the topics you mentioned not just debt :) That said, intentionality is key and you've got it going on! Have a good one!

I'll be "that person" for a minute. As a fellow stupid-with-money-early-20-something, I really want to suggest you check out Dave Ramsey. I'm not 100% on his train, but I'm heading that way, and he teaches life without credit cards or a credit score. Full disclosure: I admit I still play with...

Pretty sure it's good any number of times all weekend. HTH!

I haven't had any issue redeeming Walgreen's GCs for Disney - I always do just $25 or $50 at a time though. I haven't tried redeeming Balance Reward points for a transaction including a Disney GC (along with other items) though, but I'm planning to try this weekend, so standby unless someone...

I got my results back a few weeks ago and no big surprises. I've done a bunch of my own genealogy so was pretty sure what to expect there, but I'm most excited to connect with some of the individuals I matched with. I have a few second cousins on my list that I already know and some third...

That sounds awesome! I honestly pretty much passed it over in the sales this holiday season and 2015 when they were on massive sales. Funnily enough I even bought one for my grandmother the year before for Christmas as that's what my mom said she wanted and never read enough about it to want...

As a regular solo diner and having been a server for years, yes, please leave something on the table! If you're a book-carrying reader this is the perfect table-saving item! Personally I don't like leaving my phone or purse/wallet, but I tend to leave a jacket/sweater if possible but even a...

I just read this whole thread and it fascinates me to see so many different methods of boiling eggs :teacher: I'll add mine in too - I don't use any gadgets or timers...my family has always eaten a lot of eggs cooked all different ways, and yes, we've boiled a ton of them! My mom taught me...

Sorry DG25 & Wilkeliza! I "liked" the comment about the $8 campsite, but forgot to mention that I love that - I had no idea it was so cheap, I was seeing rack rates around $60-$90 and figuring ~20% AP discount, for $8 that's a no brainer! I just meant that apple for apple on the location, what...

Mar - I probably won't activate my AP until December, but am contemplating doing it for F&W. Keep me in mind for next year! I'll totally have some freedom to do a day now and then :mickeybar

Thanks again all! I've got the point and made my call as stated above. And again, for the record, I've clocked countless hours on an airplane myself and am well aware of etiquette, especially when the smell part is disregarded, and I'm not one to allow that on myself, but I appreciate the...

Thanks Princess, Chris, and Maggie! Lots of ideas in there! I definitely didn't think about height restrictions other than, clearly there would be some, but after looking now he's about 34/35" so who knows...he may even hit the 38" mark by December! Geez...nevermind, I want him to stay little...

Great suggestions all! I'm so excited, but I think I'll be able to reign myself in and just let him kind of take the lead. And I'm sure his opinions will change just like Ashlee describing her daughter's mind changes lol! Kids! So fun though :)

Thanks K! I was hoping someone would chime in on that point - we'll be there the week of Labor Day, but not the weekend and from what I'm guessing from my reading it seems like a pretty good time to go crowd wise so I'm crossing my fingers! And you said exactly what I was thinking - CB Wed &...

Personal feelings aside, I love that when I take my DS to MK for a dose of fantasy and a creative boost in addition to the entertainment factor, he can also see history come to life in this exhibit/Liberty Square. No matter on which side an individual stands, history is very important to us and...
