But now I'm also thinking of just going back to Poly and saving some money,

Anyone else confused by saving money and Poly in the same sentence??

@wendow (any another Colorado people, @amalone1013 ?)...I booked flights to DEN back on release day and now I can get a cheaper flight, still nonstop, but a couple hours later. Would it still be light outside if we land at 5:15pm in mid march? We will drive to Breckenridge right away. I am concerned about night time in the mountains. Or if it won't be daylight, do you think that drive would be fine for us even if it is dark?

I'm working with my TA to see if they know how to work around it.

But now I'm also thinking of just going back to Poly and saving some money, LOL.

Haha saving money is always good!

Haha!! I'm weighing a standard room through the TA exclusive vs. a Theme Park View Contemporary room with whatever minimal discount Disney may throw at that. Soooo the Poly is actually about $400 cheaper in my "approximated scenario".

We’ve hit Walgreens, cvs, Home Depot, staples, and on our way to Kohl’s. I am extremely grateful for this thread!! We are paying OP for our dining at wdw in October so Disney gift cards will be great! The only bad one was staples only had $50 Disney cards so we got $25 target and $25 amazon instead. We’ve saved $80! So awesome!

It may still be light at 5:15 but by the time you rent your car and get on your way, it will be getting dark or fully dark. However, the drive to Breck is all busy, well-lit highway until the very end and that road is well-traveled also. It's also Spring Break. You will be on the roads with tons of others heading in and out of Breck. Be prepared for some traffic both on I-70 and highway 9 going into Breck.

Then go with the poly! That’s a lot of money!

DP - Ok so I met the $1,000 Spend on my DH's AMEX Gold Card. This was the one that I got the Pop -up but interpreted to mean that I may not be eligible and continued on and was approved. I had Chatted with AMEX when I got the card and they confirmed that the offer was on my card. So, I met the spend and just chatted with them again to see if I had fulfilled all my requirements. The rep came back and said the bonus was originally on my card but the bonus was declined for misuse of bonus offer in the past. So, sadly I will not be getting the 50,000 Points. Only other AMEX cards that DH had were the SPG Personal and Business and pretty much did not put much on after the bonus. Hard lesson to learn. The sad thing is I can't even have DH apply later for the same card to see if he gets offer again since he now has the card. Now to decide to keep it or not...

Since you are open to biz cards why not the AS biz card. It has an increased offer of 30k miles after 1k in spend plus a companion fare of 0, you just pay the taxes. The AF is just $50. I just got the card in the mail today It's BofA but doesn't post to your CR.

Thanks, not sure I want to get another AS card at all. It would be in dh's name but I already have the personal in my name that I ABSOLUTELY will not be closing because I don't want to mess any more with my credit score. We would probably not use the second companion fare, and I already get free bags with my card. I suppose 30k miles for $50 is an okay price though.

Maybe I will just pull back from this game for awhile and concentrate on putting spend on what I already have and see where everything lands with Chase and Disney. (And concentrate on my dh's recuperation !)

 

[hsmamato2]

interesting FYI regarding my jetblue and chase portal questions from yesterday...the flights that cost 157/159 on JB site are showing at twice that cost using the portal! so my best bet is transfer for sure....

Gotta love those magical rates.

What is RMN? Thanks!

I just asked that today lol. It stands for retail me not. Dh happened to take the day off today so we made a little adventure out of driving to each store to get gift cards. We also used a code on rmn for Walmart. We needed groceries so we did the spend $50 on a pickup and you get $10 off.

Did you end up deciding to use the Marriott cert for this stay?
