Anyone going to the food and wine festival? Need a dumb favor :-)

[Anthony DeSanno]

I'm heading with a group to Orlando second week in November for the end of the festival. I was wondering if anyone would be willing to get me 4 Food and Wine Festival lanyard gift cards (their free) and a park map from each park and mail them to me after your trip? I will send you money for postage. If anyone will, please let me know and I'll get you the address.
Thanks

Is there a reason that you cannot get them when you go in November? Gift cards are not free. You are expected to put a dollar amount on them.

Someone who's not going to the parks or food and wine fest but wants to "prove" that he did with gift cards and park maps?

That's about the only sense I can make of this.


Good luck?

Ok, ready. My aunt just lost her house, her job and is moving in with my husband and I. She hasn't had a real vacation in 15 years and she she is coming with us (we are footing the entire bill for her, tickets, room, food, spending cash, etc). Then she is living with us rent free for as long as need be. The reason I want this stuff is I am putting together a package for her to get her excite about the trip. I already got her a 20 piece pin trading set, disney bag for trips in the park, a 2013ebook about the festival and made a custom map for her as a keepsake. I actually take offense that someone would think I am faking going to the festival. I have gone the last 4 years running and we coincided our wedding day to out normal trips to the festival (October normally but going later cause of my aunt). I did not remember that you had to put a dolor amount on the card so that's my mistake (my hubby normally gets them when we get there). The reason for 4 sets are I want to put a care package together for the 4 of us going (me, the hubby, his sister and my aunt). Thanks

Didn't mean to offend, but without any type of explanation that's exactly how your post read. Sorry if it came off as harsh.
I was able to get (basic design) disney gift cards from grocery store for my trip, so that may be an option for you. Also, disney store, target, Walmart and some gas stations have them.

Hope y'all have a great trip.

Are you able to reuse a gift card? If so, you may be able to have someone send you a card they bought and used. I am going in mid October, I suppose I could do this. Although, I planned on using the kind you can attach to your wrist.

For Christmas last year, we gave our son an NYC guide book to "hint" that he was going on a school sponsored March Break trip to the Big Apple. We actually considered putting a big apple in his stocking, but considered it too subtle.

I figured the OP was doing something similar.
No whiff of scam to me.

Your aunt is very lucky to have someone like you in her life.

I don't think you can just take the gift cards with out actually putting an amount on them.

Why not just call Disney directly and ask for their services?

 

[Spikerdink]

Got your message - am glad to do it - especially after hearing the back story. We will talk more before I go to WDW!

 

[Anthony DeSanno]

I tried calling them a few times and they couldn't which I respect. I was Hopi magic bands would be totally available before then, the whole 2 birds one stone thing, but doesn't seem so. Thanks so much everyone

I didn't think "Scam!" Of course, I can't imagine why anyone would want to pretend to have been at WDW during F&W.

I see you already got your offer. If you need park maps sooner, let me know. I can mail you some.
