I have to share my great news.

I just called WDW to see if a room only discount could be applied to our reservation and the CM said there was a free dining code attached to my reservation. clapping We had a RGR Standard view at POR booked and she said if we upgraded to a garden view we could use our free dining code so of course I agreed. All said and done we are getting a refund of $496! yay I am so excited. As soon as I got off the phone I told my husband and he said oh that nice I am sure we could use the money for something. I was like Can you show a little excitement please? So I came to share with you guys cause I knew you would understand.

I do have some Disney ideas for this money for sure. I had already bought everyone in the house a new Disney shirt for everyday we are there and now I waiting on the Disney store to put out there spring pajamas so I can order some of those for the four of us.
Yeah I had no idea! I had seen the 30% off offer on Facebook so I called to see what that was about and they said POR only had a 15% offer and looked at my reservation to see if it could be applied and then the CM said wait a minute "You have a free dining code attached to your reservation. This is why is so important to call us and see what discounts we can get you." I said yes and jumped up and down. It was an awesome surprise. That's one more thing that sets Disney apart they do everything they can to be helpful.
