I was warned....

We are staying at SSR right now and I can’t believe someone did this at the resort. I put a nice shiny new Mickey Annual Pass magnet on my daughters car and someone was bold enough to remove it for themselves. So for anyone else thinking about putting an older magnet on their car that is shiny and new, think twice. Someone else needed it more I guess.

 

[Chuck S]

Yeah, My DVC and AP magnets disappeared. Not at Disney, but locally here in Texas.

Lost my brand new silver DCL castaway club magnet at the beach club. People steal everywhere. Even at Disney.

 

[Tallis]

I've had one stolen locally. I don't put them on vehicles anymore. People are really pathetic to put their hands on others' property, but they do.

 

[The Jackal]

We don’t have this problem, because magnets won’t stick to aluminum, so we can’t put them on our truck. Sorry people are stealing everyone’s magnets. Ours are on the fridge.

 

[MNDisneyMommy]

some enterprising etsy sellers will make stickers in the same designs - once my DVC magnet was stolen, I did that. It sucks but now I don't worry about it.

 

[beccasmom]

We usually just put them on our fridge. I was walking through the parking lot of my office complex the other day and saw one on a new SUV. I remember thinking to myself ‘I wonder how long before someone takes it?’. Sad. It’s a problem everywhere. But I was happy to see that I work with a fellow DVC member, even though I don’t know their name.

 

[Tallis]

People sell them on eBay, too. I know because I sold some myself. I just have all our family members get one and sell all the extras, would NEVER steal to make a buck. Not even sure how people can sleep at night knowing they have someone else's property, or sold someone else's property. I could never live with myself, even over something small like that. While the law differentiates between $10 and $10k, I'm happy to say that mine, and most peoples' morals do not. It's just those few bad apples out there ...

I have had mine fall off twice. Once was in a car wash. Can’t remember what caused the other one to fall off. Found it both times.

 

[Disneycouple99]

I only place it on the car for the drive down and remove it when we get there.

 

[mrsap]

Sorry that happened to you. That’s why mine stay on the fridge. Was worried about that myself.

So our door into our garage is metal. On the garage side I have our DCL magnets and one of the AP. On the inside I have Figment from Flower and Garden and some others. Welcomes me home and reminds me why I go to work.

DHs Figment magnet has stayed on his car quite awhile.

I lost my magnets last year. And a week after going for a car wash, I had a big "aha" moment! That they probably fell off during the wash. I then went up to the car wash office, and sure enough, they were there! So don't lose hope, go right back to the office and check. Good luck!

I've kept my DVC magnets on my fridge so no problem there. My brother repairs car washes, and regularly pulls out magnets and antenna toppers from cars. He has a nice collection, including a DVC magnet and a couple of mickey antenna toppers.

No one has stolen mine off my fridge yet.
