    Sofia merch in the parks?

    We were there earlier this month and there was no Sofia merchandise. Our daughter likes Sofia and Doc McStuffins, and they did have some Doc McStuffins merchandise, but no Sofia as yet. There was one where they said they do carry it, but it flies off the shelf as soon as they stock it, and we...

    Chase Disney Rewards Visa

    But do you have to enclose a note saying where you want the payment to go? Again, using my previous numbers, I have a Disney balance of $2500, which is interest free for 6 months. Throughout the same month, I have also charged $2000 worth of other everyday expenses. I understand what you are...

    Chase Disney Rewards Visa

    I was aware of that, but I wasn't sure how you go about taking advantage of it when you are constantly using your card for everyday expenses on a regular basis. I can understand if you use the card to book your trip, then put the card away and don't use it anymore after that. Then your only...

    Chase Disney Rewards Visa

    Yes, and not only is it more convenient to have one check to write, as opposed to dozens of entries in the checkbook, but gone are the days of putting pants in the laundry with debit receipts still in the pockets that I forgot to write in the checkbook. lol

    Best Breakfast Restaurant near HS

    If you are wanting a Character Breakfast, there is the character Breakfast at Hollywood & Vine IN Hollywood Studios. You don't get much closer than that. :D It's got the Playhouse Disney Characters. Not sure which characters are there now (since Playhouse Disney shows are always changing)...

    Chase Disney Rewards Visa

    Unless you are one of those "oh, let's go on a spending spree because I have a credit card" types, I don't see why you could not pay off the entire balance each month. The way I look at it is that I am buying gas, groceries, etc each month, whether I have a credit card or not and I have to...

    Akershus Princess Breakfast

    On question #1, what I meant was, is breakfast the only meal there that included Princesses, or are the Princesses also at lunch and supper? Thanks for the other replies. :) After I initially posted my questions, I went back and added a #6. Do you know the answer to that one?

    Akershus Princess Breakfast

    Just getting some ideas for next year's WDW adventure. Last year we had the Cinderalla Princess supper and this year we had the breakfast. My wife would like to do it again next year, but she already said she wants to do BOG again, and I may want to do Tony's Town Square again, and I don't want...

    Grand Floridian Parking Question

    As far as I know, the parking lot right in front is valet parking and the parking lot you speak of is for self parking. That is where we parked when we stayed there earlier this month. It has a gate where you have to show your room key card in order to get in, but there is also a button to...

    Chase Disney Rewards Visa

    I understand that, but when I did the math, I realized that the extra percentage point on gas, groceries, restaraunts and Disney purchases would more than pay for the $48 annual fee. The extra points on gas purchases alone make it worth it. We normally pay around $65, give or take, for a tank...

    Chase Disney Rewards Visa

    I've been using the card since April 2010 and for our April 2013 trip, I had about $1550 of rewards points accumulated. My wife, my son and I all had annual passes from the previous year, but our daughter did not need park admission the previous year. So I used the $1550 gift card to pay for...

    Annual Price Increases

    I'm trying to remember when the price increase was last year, and what percentage it usually is? The price increase and release of room/ticket packages for the following year always used to be in August, but I thought they did it early last year and the year before. Was it June? About what...

    Grand Floridian Pontoon Boats

    On the subject of renting boats, does anyone know why the Marina at Coronado Springs is never open? We stayed there in April 2010 and again in April 2013 and both times, there were no boats, no bikes, no one running the marina booth, nothing.

    Grand Floridian Pontoon Boats

    I enjoy taking my kids out on the boat if we are at a resort where this is possible. When we stayed at the Wilderness Lodge, and Carribbean Beach, I took my son out on the boat and this last time, at the Grand Floridian, I took both my kids out. Unfortunately, at the Grand Floridian, we must...

    Favorite Living With The Land Product

    I'm not a big fisherman by any means, but every time we go through the fish section, I think how much I would like to reel one of them bad boys in. I don't even care which breed. Just to catch a huge fish, not a little baby thing, a stick, or a bunch of moss. lol

    Disney Dining Plan

    We haven't done the dining plan since 2011 and I am wondering whether we should try it next year. I am wondering whether I should try to buy APs throughout the year to have on our next trip and just do Tables in Wonderland (as we did these past two trips) or if I just want to book a room and...

    Resort advice

    We've stayed at all three and I like all three so it's hard to pick a favorite. But here are some things to keep in mind, based on how important these things are to you. If you enjoy the marina, then Coronado Springs might be a dissappointment. We stayed there in 2010, and on this past trip...

    Converting MYW to Annual Pass

    I see. Perhaps the best route, then, would be just to book a room and ticket package with dining for next year, then just upgrade our passes to APs after the trip. It would keep us from having to fork out so much money at once.

    Converting MYW to Annual Pass

    We would be going again next spring sometime. But I want to get APs to use for our next two spring trips, rather than renew my AP to use for next year's trip. I think it would be far more economical to buy new APs to use on two trips (or 3 if we can go at Christmas) than it would be to renew...

    Converting MYW to Annual Pass

    What about upgrading a MYW ticket to an annual pass? How much does the upgrade cost? If an AP is $611, how would that compare to the price of an 8 day MYW pass with parkhopping + the cost of upgrading it to an AP?
