    Anyone have a high interest savings account?

    Hmm…. My Capital One is at 0.30%.

    Disney only wins 1 Golden ticket award.

    It’s always weird to see Splashin‘ Safari (Holiday World) on a list like this. They do have a good water park though. Plus, free sodas and free sunscreen.

    When do excursions show up to book.

    We are cruising on the Wonder in January and I’d love to see the excursions, but right now, the only things listed are cabanas, an Atlantis day pass (at almost $450 per person), and just a couple of other things. There is nothing in Falmouth. When should I expect to see the full list of excursions?

    Flooring Options?

    I foster kittens and having carpet in my kitten room was NOT working. Too many babies potty training! I installed luxury vinyl planks in there. I put it in myself and it looks great! It was easy to install and went quick too. It was my first ever floor install.

    New Orleans transportation

    We were just there last week and also found that a lot of attractions offer transportation that you can add to your ticket if you need it. We stayed right next to Jackson Square, so we walked pretty much everywhere.

    Reliable airport transportation/car seats

    Unfortunately, what you have described is all too common and is exactly why renting car seats is never recommended. You also don’t know the history of the seat, so you don’t know if it has been crashed, mishandled, or otherwise compromised. If at all possible, bring your seats and use them on...

    How Much Is Your 2022 Disney Vacation Going to Cost You?? $$

    I’m taking my 14 year old son for 7 days. We have 6 day tickets. I booked us in All Star Sports, but they moved us to Port Orleans Riverside and will be giving us $200 for our “trouble”. That’s not figured in here. I will pack breakfast food and have purchased discount gift cards for places like...

    Velocicoaster - how intense?

    For me, it’s the lap bar. All those inversions with a lap bar. Ugh. If it had shoulder harnesses I would be over the moon excited, but that lap bar is making me a nervous wreck.

    Single Rider Lines

    One other question. When we go, it will just be me and my 14 year old son. We typically take advantage of the single rider lines at Disney. How are those lines on the rides at Universal? I realize they’re not available on all rides, but can we save considerable time like we do at Disney?

    First trip August 1-8 and getting nervous

    I’m a Disney veteran. I know the ins and outs and can plan a trip in my sleep. But, with all the issues Disney is having, I thought we would give Universal a shot. We’re staying at Sapphire Falls and my plan was to get up early, do early entry to try to beat the heat, come back to the resort and...

    Animaniacs reboot

    I got Hulu for the month specifically for this.

    Tell me everything about adopting a kitten

    Cats are sooo easy. Give them a litter box and they’re housebroken. Put down food and water and love them and they’re happy. I have four right now, but one is as old as dirt and won’t be around much longer. We have fostered litters of kittens too (that’s where the other three came from). They...

    What was the last thing you had delivered?

    A Batman play set for my neighbor’s great nephew for Christmas.

    People with pets - what do you do with them when traveling?

    I have a part time dog (she is my daughter’s, but I keep her at least 3 days and nights a week because my daughter works 12 hour shifts), so I guess I’m the babysitter! When we go out of town, she usually stays with my parents. She has panic attacks when she’s not with us. It’s sad. I also...

    Need a new credit card recomme

    My dispute took 5 months to complete and they sided against me. I am livid. I read on Facebook and Expedia has been doing this to so many people. Some have lost $5,000+. I hope they get sued. It would serve them right.

    Need a new credit card recomme

    Mine was Expedia too. I booked a trip before COVID. I tried to contact them 53 times to cancel and couldn’t get through on the phone, website, or app. I called the hotel directly and they cancelled the stay and refunded back to Expedia, but Expedia refuses to refund me. Capital One said I booked...

    Need a new credit card recomme

    I realize we have a credit card thread, but my post will be lost there with the 1,000+ pages. I currently have a Capital One Venture card that I am cancelling. They screwed me on a $700 dispute and if I can’t trust them to have my back after hundreds of thousands of dollars run across their...

    Your silver lining?

    I had seriously considered home schooling my son, but was afraid to jump in with both feet. Virtual learning has allowed me to dip my toes in. For the record, he did amazing!
