Oooft! Been a hot minute since I've been to the parks with a popcorn lover. Please remind me: doesn't old popcorn bucket work for the refill price, or do a need a new one with a current receipt?

Ours work well. In my experience, the college kid scooping the popcorn doesn't really seem to care about the design on the bucket.

Any one should work

Thanks! 50th anniversary bucket it is.

To get Disney Visa discount in parks, can you show Disney visa but pay via Magic Band which may be connected to a different cc?
9:07pm on 7/19/26 by
I have not had luck using my MB even when showing my Disney Visa, even when it was the card linked. They were nice but strict about requiring the physical card to pay if I wanted the discount. Maybe some CMs allow it, but I didn't encounter any. :(
10:16pm on 7/19/26 by
We were told the physical card has to be used.
10:24pm on 7/19/26 by
I've always been told I had to use the card.

If anyone wants to follow along, I'm posting in the forum as I make DH's MNSSHP costume for this year. I truly think this will be my best work yet. https://forum.touringplans.com/t/follow-along-with-dh-s-mnsshp-costume-construction/108509

Love this @halfblud (and The Pitt idea, too)!

This is so impressive!

Tried out my boat for Captain Suds tonight for the first time. Now I need to find the closest thing to a fisherman's sweater I can get that won't melt me into a puddle.

We have a family of 6 going to Disney in June 2027. Last time I've been to Disney was back in 2021. I dont believe anything is the same, lol. I just renewed TP bc it was a game changer back then for us. It sounds like LL is a must, but will end up costing
8:03pm on 7/18/26 by
e.g., my fam rode 21 rides on Thursday and 14 more on Friday this week with LLs. Our longest LLMP queue was 15 minutes. Another strategy for cutting time in lines is using single rider options whenever available.
10:25pm on 7/18/26 by
Yes its much more than just three that you can get. With a bit of research, planning and fast walking you can get pretty much every ride in every park done in a day using LLs/ low standby waits except maybe for MK depending on your go power.
12:28am on 7/19/26 by
Thanks so much for all of the replies. This really has helped me decide! I will do some research on how to use the LL's to get the most of them. If you have any resources that would be great
10:16pm on 7/19/26 by
We will be taking friends in March who have never been to WDW before. Both are in their fifties and adults only trip. We have DVC and want opinions what hotel you think would wow a first timer the most?
11:49am on 7/19/26 by
As a seasoned DVC mooch from my amazing SIL's points I can say that Saratoga isn't your choice. If you are going low points OKW is more fun for some drinks/food.AKL is a great idea but not our fave due to just distance but the resort/food is a+
9:02pm on 7/19/26 by
AKL food isn't for everyone. Their Spices do not agree with my one of my DD's at all. Worth a mention, depending on your party :)
9:18pm on 7/19/26 by
BCV or CCV if DVC. AK is lovely, but soooooooooooooo far from everything.
9:42pm on 7/19/26 by
Tomorrow is when I can start to book my LL's. Can I get a sneak peak at what' LL & times are available today? Tks

Going to MK on 8/20 only. Want a 1pm convo tix. Can only find 1 ending on 8/12. Can I buy that and then on 8/13 ask them to change the date?
2:38pm on 7/18/26 by
Click that link and follow the instructions. You should be able to adjust the dates. I was able to do that just now, but obv didn't buy the tix. Used this conv: https://disneyevent.com/mersep2026wdw1 Good luck!
8:03pm on 7/19/26 by
If you use my con tix date change trick, I suggest picking a conference that starts after your intended use date. We had one person report a hiccup in Disneyland, not WDW a year or two ago using an earlier con than their trip. Even though all other...

..reports have been no issues, it might be a safer tactic using a later con that is still open when you are on site. (At this point I suspect that one report was a random glitch, otherwise we would heard more of them by now.)

Rider swap times for Guardians and Tron are way off on touring plans. By like 30+ minutes
2:42pm on 7/19/26 by
Are the times too long or short? I know Tron has been experimenting with internal rider swap which makes it WAY faster.
4:18pm on 7/19/26 by
I thought rider swap were able to enter the LL lines?
4:27pm on 7/19/26 by
@burner444, if you recall the time of day and the wait times, let me know. I can get this fixed. Thanks for letting us know!

"What's cookin'?" It's our DIL's birthday! She wanted a pool day and then brunch for dinner. Veggie frittata, sausage & bacon, a knock off Cracker Barrel cheesy hash brown casserole, fruit salad, homemade Belgian waffles, Canadian bacon sliders......
4:21pm on 7/19/26 by
We spent the afternoon eating chips &guac and drinking margaritas while watching Spain win the World Cup! Seems unfair I have to now cook dinner. It's a perfect summer evening tho so I'm grilling a steak and have some sweet potatoes and spinach as sides
7:08pm on 7/19/26 by
Pork tenderloin with the marinade the kids insist is worse than my dad's (they're right. They eat it anyway). Salad, rolls, and Mrs Allan made cookies for dessert!
7:38pm on 7/19/26 by
Burgers, corn on the cob and green beans from the garden. Maybe s'mores made over the campfire for dessert.
