That said, I don't want any of you to lose your usual spots, so we should probably move MS discussions to DISchurners, where we already have a MS Discussion Thread.
I posted a few rather generic questions on Dischurners MS if anyone wants to chime in. I'm in a rural area south of Portland and the closest MSer is in Seattle I think so hopefully no one gets their honey hole imploded!
 
How do you go about adding an AU to an older card? SM? Thinking I would like to add all 3 of my kids to my Disney card because that is my oldest card. Do you think multiple AUs for them are OK? One DD is already on 2 of mine so maybe I will just do the other 2.
 
Finally got my ears done today! I learned not to sew them to the fabric covering the headband because it makes it too hard and doesn't make them stand up any better. No idea how the Disney one's stand up since they are sewn into the headband cover. As much as I'm not a huge fan of hot glue, it's definitely the way to go for making ears.

Those turned out great. I use cardboard in the middle of my ears to make them stand up. Honestly sewing them in to the headband takes too long for me so I use hot glue. Hope you enjoy your trip!

I’ve done it..by clicking on “things you can do” for the card you would like to add them to....when you scroll down there is a line to add an authorization user
 
Thank you! That does sound pretty similar to our situation. I’m just happy that we somewhat know the current owner and she has DVC so she’s gotta be an alright person right? Lol
You never know... we emailed quite a bit with our sellers because we were also buying furniture from them (another similarity!). A month before we moved in, she emailed and asked if we wanted their bedsheets and bedspread because they match the paint color. We weren't buying the bed btw. Um, no, that's weird... we decided NOT to tell them that we were repainting the bedroom because we hated the color. :D

Yes I did this too on my DHs Disney card. I added both of my DDs as AU. THey like their Disney Visas! Older DD now has other cards but younger DD keeps it with her and puts a nominal amount on it each month. She is the only one who uses it. I am happy she has it because I don’t have to give her cash whenever she goes somewhere with her friends. She never uses it without texting me first. Hopefully it will help her credit in the future.

There's a piece of cheerio's box inside each ear :) I think because the bottom of the ears were a tiny bit thinner where I glued them after I sewed them was my problem. I can see why just gluing them is easier. Is the hot glue secure enough for them to stay on through multiple wears and packing etc?
 
I called Chase to follow up on my pending CIP application I applied for last night and it said I was approved:thumbsup2. My dh has probably put almost $3.5K towards his CIP to get his bonus. We went to buy carpeting and it is going to be almost $4K, I will put on my new CIP. I want to send dh a referral for CIP2 but not sure how long to wait? Is it 60 days? Also, another question, when the CIP cc's come to their year anniversary, is it possible to pool my dh's and my bonus points? I am just wondering how to not have to pay another AF, on the cards when the 1 year is up?
 
Ebates will have some stores 20% off on Monday. I'm hoping Macy's makes that list since it's their friends and family sale so a good time to stock up on NYDJs and makeup. Wish I'd thought to get Macy's gift cards from Kroger when they were doing 4x fuel points but I still have $1000 left on my Amex offer at Lowe's so I'll hit Lowe's this weekend on my way home from DD's swim meet and convert that to Macy's. Should at least be 15% or so off.

I have a bonus 200 fuel points for Macy's on my kroger account. Even with just the standard 2x, its a decent discount.

Congrats on the approval....I have been putting 3 months between Chase applications
You can pool your points now .I transfer all points earned to my CSR monthly no need to wait a year
 
I've been in a weird space, just quietly reading along. DH had an MRI today. It should be read tomorrow. Hopefully everything is okay. This is from his recent ER visit and a CT scan that showed a little something abnormal. I am taking a vacation day Friday. I'm pretty mentally fried right now.

Conversation Starter:

Is anyone else already actively working on 2021 vacation plans? I've already got my 2020 locked in with a Disney cruise and a trip to WDW for food and wine. I've got 2021 pretty narrowed down too.

I can't talk about this in real life - people would think I was insane planning trips that far in advance. But I can't be the only one, right?

Once I'm under 5/24, I'll be actively racking up URs again and I plan on using them for either Greece or Norway.
 
No, I trust you but I am worried that adding those two cards will put me over Chase’s limit.
How many times would you use the SW companion pass between July and December of this year? (ie how many SW flights will you take in the 2nd half of the year).

I'm still trying to plan late summer of 2020.

You have had a rough time lately. Hoping everything is OK with DH.

I am still trying to make plans for THIS year! I can't even fathom doing it one year out let alone 2! I can't believe it is already May and I have nada really planned for this summer. Sad. Bits and pieces of a Yellowstone vacation, but kid's schedules are up in the air and making things difficult so losing my enthusiasm.
