Dress Shop on Cherry Tree Lane opened this morning at Disney Springs in the Marketplace Co-Op. This is the Disney bounding clothing store.

Anyone know the price point of the dresses?

I don't mind discussion. I just find the whole cupcakes, and protest at Potter stuff to be a bit much for this thread. We should at least try to remain on topics.

"Word is leaking out that when Star Wars Land opens Memorial Day Weekend in 2019, Disney may launch the “Summer Of Star Wars” at Disneyland and Disney World. From Memorial Day to Labor Day, Star Wars Land will open to guests only with a separate ticket for the “event” priced at $95 per day. "

And April fools? That's predictably dumb.

But isn't the take away that NONE of us doubted it. Stockholm Syndrome

It's even dumber when you post an April Fool's joke on March 31st. Ugh - I friggin' hate April Fools in the age of the internet. People post jokes and then they come up months or years later as actual topics. You can bet this will come up again in 2019 as a "rumor" because someone remembers it being posted.

I didn't believe it for one second. No way Disney does something like that. Now I wholeheartedly believe that they will have some sort of "limited access" hard ticket event either in the mornings before the park opens or the evenings after it closes, and it totally could be $95 for a 2-3 hour event that gives limited access to SWE.


And it will totally sell out as well.

They may also do the exclusive EMH for on-site guests to sell rooms similar to what they are doing for Pandora, but it won't be every night - they'll have some nights set aside for the hard ticket event.

You can't put a price on 2 things:
1. "Magic"
2. Feeling pretty

That's like complaining somebody scratched your car door as the world ends...

Sometimes...Disney's "market research" leads them to DumbDumbland

5th gate confirmed...you heard it here first folks.

Oh yes you can. Just ask Disney.

Sigh. For $118... And that orange bird dress will clash terribly with red hair... I'm still tempted.

Anyone know the price point of the dresses?

It looks like they are all $98-$118

 

[Delano Fiedler]

Honestly...the range is $250-400 now...I see those going to 350-500 almost immediately...

A direct drop in Star Wars land? No way that doesn't blow the doors off.

I was wondering why AoA was so expensive compared to the other value resorts for September. At my trusted travel agency it was about $200 more than Caribbean for 7 days.

I always assumed the AoA suites were more expensive because they can fit 6 people, which I don't believe any other non-DVC resort can do besides the cabins at Fort Wilderness.

Correct.

I saw Copperfield in Vegas once. He put a nice little price on "Magic".

The pretty part I know nothing about and get farther from it each and every day.
