Actually, it turns out that the home team for each series got to call dibs.

Agreed 100%.

I just heard about these awesome Mickey and Minnie coolers, but they're all sold out. Not that I need a cooler, but they sure are cool. Pun intended.

I also just read about the updates and videos shown about the new Star Wars movie. I'm very curious to actually watch it. Not sure if this is considered spoilers, but I'll put them in one just to be safe.

Spoiler

Rey is holding a red, double bladed lightsaber, wearing black, Sith-like robes. Here is also the poster they released at D23.

People (TLJ detractors included) are getting excited again.

@Eric1955 - how go the studies?
Did the week settle down a bit?

Dry cleaning prices drive me nutty. It's not that I need to use their services often; but in my area, one company has bought up some of the independents -- wiping out most of the competition, and raising prices overall.

Went to Google to see if I could bypass dry cleaner and wash a down comforter. Yupper! I also came upon a good web site, Everyday Cheapskate. It has all kinds of tips, etc., for many different topics. (Mary Hunt, the author, also mentioned that as long as you keep your down comforter covered in a duvet (which I do), then the actual comforter, itself, rarely needs cleaning.) The duvet cover needs to be laundered, but that's quick and easy.

Bounceback was unappealing - both in incentive and date range. Didn’t book.

I did not - and that’s the one I wanted. I’m going to call when I get home and talk to an agent - we were at AoA so it may be different. You have until 10pm on checkout day to call. Thank you!!!

Housekeeping neglected to replace the old offer (which expired on 8/15, see your photo) with this new one. Good for all resorts. Explain the error and I bet you can book Free Dining for next year.

I solved that problem years ago by not having a single thing that requires Dry Cleaning. So have managed to keep my anxiety level fairly low concerning raising prices.

Slight correction. I do have a sports coat that I wore twice before my trip to Europe in 2015 and twice on the cruise back home A total of about 4 hours. I have managed to put on some weight since then so I doubt that it even fits anymore. That amounts to around $50.00 every time I wore it plus the Cleaning to hang it in my closet.

Spoiler

Perhaps any future needs will be covered by rentals or thrift store purchases.

That’s an old flyer. Current BB is free dining. You still have until 10 pm today to book.

ETA - I see you and @Tuvalu figured it out.

A Target is going to be coming to WDW... not a fan of that.

Avengers Campus coming to California. Not a fan of superhero movies, so I'm actually happy it can't come to WDW.
