    October 2017 Discount and code watch

    Hi DisneyMagicGirl, see more details in my post above, but I just checked and the offer is no longer on the site. It was weird actually, the offer was listed as a promo right in my statement on the visa site, but it wasn't listed in the "special offers" site where they are typically posted...

    October 2017 Discount and code watch

    Hi Fox, Yes - it's true that Oct was completely blocked. But if I recall, the dates were Labor Day week in sept., the week before Thanksgiving and the couple weeks after Thanskgiving. The dates were sparse. I just tried to go back to the site to check, and the offer isn't even up anymore.

    Showing around First Timers....

    Hi Ashley, I'm bringing my BFF as a first-timer this fall, and that is the exact question I'm pondering! Since she is very familiar with disneyland, we are going to try and focus on things we like (rides/different food experiences), as well as other things you can't see in CA. Some of the...

    Thanks Reuben! I've current got the FD/tix at the Polynesian for half of the trip. I'm keeping my eyes open for any and all discounts (especially room only) during our trip. Yesterday I received a new promo from Disney Visa (another room/tix/dining promo) but the dates don't line up with our...

    Your Advice: Fall BFF trip w/ first-timer

    Your Advice: Fall BFF trip w/ first-timer

    Hi Terri, thanks so much for the advice! We're probably not going to do F&W b/c of time vs cost. It's likely we'll only be in Epcot for 1 day and I felt like you really need 2 days as a newcomer to see it all. Therefore we're thinking we'll focus more on seeing as many attractions as possible...

    Hi Everyone, Thanks for all of the tips and info I've received over the past few weeks by reading these boards. I've been to DW a couple of times and my BFF has never been - although in the 00s our families with young kids were annual DL pass holders, and together we visited DL and DCA...

    No Park/Romantic Getaway - POR or WL?

    We have stayed ay both, but my money is on WL! Either one would be great. When we have stayed at each resort, we were sad that we didn't have more time to relax and hang out at the resort. They are BOTH great for that. You will be happy with either choice. Both have great pools, both have a...

    Received a room-only PIN code today, unfortunately cannot use it. It is a pretty typical 25% off mods and 30% off deluxe for dates up to Dec 22. Wish I could use it but we are looking for Jan dates. But I thought others would like to know - this is the first (I think) I've seen anything...
