I so wanted to come! I tried recruiting my girls that I camp with, hoping one would bring her camper. But there wasn't any availability when I looked due to the holiday weekend, so then we talked about going somewhere else. Then that never panned out. Now I will be driving kids to soccer games since it looks like my husband is going that weekend to my folks' to help my brothers put a shower upstairs so my barely-able-to-walk-with Parkinson's Dad doesn't fall down the basement steps. Anyhoo, I hope to join you some day! Have a magical time!

  You must make this happen next year.

I don't get to stop by?

You better stop by!  I haven't seen you since Stone Mountain!!

Bullerin had been arrested 17 times before with two of those arrests for suspicion of selling fraudulent theme park tickets.

Further proof that our Justice System is not working!  I have no idea what the solution is, but something needs to be done!

BTW, I showed the soup cosy to my 14yo and he asked me to buy him one.  We do most of our microwave cooking in a Pampered Chef micro-cooker, but they also get hot on the bottom.

Can this thread expand to include other Dollar Finds, especially Disney themed ones?  I love adding little bits of Disney to my day and DT is a more affordable way to do it.

A few years ago, I got some cotton swabs (imitation Q-tips) in a small tin like an Altoids box, but with Mickey painted on the outside.  

I also have a Disney Princess themed nightlight I use when we stay in a Disney hotel.  

Any other cool finds? 

Editted the first post again to show who will be "stopping by".

(Rita, I expect you to stop by extensively!!)

Sorry I missed any fun!  This J O B thing is a huge time suck, as most of you already knew.

Happy Belated Birthday, Snarky!

I saw this on a local Facebook group tonight:

Every WWW, I end up getting home in the wee hours of the morning.  I am hoping to leave earlier this year, but even that can go wrong if there is an accident or bad weather.  My children have made me promise that this year, if it gets late, I will stop for the night and finish the drive in the morning.  I have looked at Trip Advisor for some hotel or motel reviews long I-95 between the FL/GA border and I-26/I-95 interchange in SC.  But I would love to hear of any experiences, good or bad, that Fiends have had.

I told my family about this thread.  My son responded that there is a new kid in one of his classes who moved here from Louisiana.  My son asked him, "What is one thing you see in SC that you never saw in Louisiana?"

The response he got was, "People driving straight on the roads.  In Louisiana, our pot holes are so bad, you can't tell if someone is drunk or just driving around the potholes!"

Thanks everyone!  I ended up getting a Shell card, since I am pretty confident I can find a Shell station in most areas.  At this point, I plan to fill the tank before I leave, then top off in Hardeeville, SC right before i cross into Georgia.  I am hoping I can make it on that one tank back to Hardeeville, since SC has the cheapest gas.

To help me stay on budget for WWW and to avoid skimmers, I am planning to buy a gas card for the trip.  My grocery store is offering $10 off a $50 card this weekend if I spend $50 on groceries.  I am trying to decide which chain to buy the card for.

Is that one gas station that always had pretty cheap gas on Disney property still a Hess station?  If not, is it part of a chain?  Or is there a Hess station near FW that is in a safe neighborhood?

Another grocery delivery option would be Shipt.  It is an app you order food from Publix with.  Someone does your shopping and delivers the food to you.  I believe there is a discount on your first order.  I have not tried them, but they are very popular at the Publix i work at in SC.

We also have reserved the Epcot concert that Saturday, and I think some of you have too. 

I haven't heard anything about this.  Concert?

(Or I did and I have just forgotten!)

Yay!!!  They are also closing AK an hour later each night.  I am hoping that means we might get to see Rivers of Light.  I know Sarah really wants to see it.

Here is a revised listing of park hours for the weekend.

Also, I saw this advertised and feel in love!

Sooooooooo... not sure if I mentioned this, but my crazy friend Pam and I already had a trip booked with her daughter at CBR this weekend when the date was announced, so we'll be around some! Would love to meet up at Trader Sams or come by for drinks. We also have reserved the Epcot concert that Saturday, and I think some of you have too. 

Our plans are kind of up in the air other than that. We have some dining we may or may not keep. 

Did I mention Trader Sams? LOL

I know some of you have my number, but maybe some others can PM me, so we can be in touch? 

Yes!!

I see AK has early hours Sat. and Mon. I want to go either one or both days!  Anyone else an early riser?  It would be the best time to see the animals on the safari ride.

 

That sounds great!

You guys are going to have so much fun. One year I will make it, it's on my bucket list.

I am sad you won't be joining us this year.

I have editted the first post to add Sarah to the list of confirmed attendees.

And elf dancing:

I thought leg warmers bunched around the ankles went out in the 80's.  But I am not very up on current fashion trends.

Thanks for suffering through the parades just to get great photos for us!

Yes, although we will have one trip to the Poly.

I don't know why my PC thinks I am quoting Mo.  I have tried to get rid of the quote box, but to no avail.  

A-ha!  I am out of the box!  Now, to the meat of this post.
