I realize this may get me shot, but I just heard something at Board X that just pushed me over the edge:
People are selling their refillable mugs on ebay and writing in the listing that they can bring these "used" mugs to Disney and use them....
"Hey, buy a mug from me for less and hose Disney!!!"
If I ever get that tight, please just shoot me!
I really have heard it all now.

I wouldn't really call it "hosing" Disney. The mug was bought and paid for. What difference does it make if the original purchaser goes back and gets it refilled or another buyer?

"Dreams are as portals,
flat visions of misty places,
fragments bound below my surface,
but I can write dreams,
they flow from me,
inscribed but now unbound,
I touch them,
and they are real,
and they are real."

wow, I cant imagine - you mean no one has ever thought of this before? You mean board X has never talked about selling mugs on ebay before?

The upside is they have to be in the park to use them. The only thing that has a higher profit margin than soft drinks is french fries.
Don't be fooled by appearances. In Hawaii, some of the most powerful people look like bums and stuntmen.

Call me crazy, but I buy a new mug each trip since the signs indicate the mugs are to be used during the current trip only.

just like when you get fastfood and get to keep a souvieer mug.

I get it, why don't other people??? If spending the $13.95 each is going to break your trip, don't go.
