[MinnieBelle]

What a wonderful contest. More incentive than ever ! For me at least :sunshine2:
Thanks Tricia!

[bs4free]

Trica, i have some questions, if you have not booked a curise yet, but do book one, do you still earn the ship board credits or is that only for those who had booked before the contest started! Question #2 if you have booked a curise can you win the curise or is that only open to those srs not allready booked!

I would love to win, but might not want to chance it and book sometime soon!

Everyone can still book the cruise up through next summer and even get our discount on the rooms...just not the initial rate. I'll have Cindy check with Gail to see what our next rate deadline is. And anyone can enter to win either the shipboard credits or the cruise itself at any time. I just ask that no one enter if they absolutely know that they would not go even if they won because then we would have to get an alternate.

If you book the cruise and you win the contest, we will pay you back what you paid on the cruise. Hopefully everyone is just putting down their deposits right now and not actually paying on them until next Spring. That way, we will just pay you your deposit back and then pay for the rest of the cruise for you.

[DisneyMa]

I don't think we will be able to make the cruise (unless I win!:D) Cool contest!! Knowing my luck I will win the shipboard credit for the cruise I can't afford to go on!!!!:rotfl:

Great contest, Tricia! I realize I probably have 0 chance of winning no matter how many entries I get, but it's fun to dream! My daughter's birthday is April 8th and that would make one great present.... :minnie:

[Alice28]

[VacationBarb]

Love the contest!!!!!

[m4travels]

I was just thinking about this after I registered. What if I can't go? What if partner dude says: We were JUST on the Magic at the beginning of September. We're going back on the Wonder in January '09. Do you really think we can go in October???

And I respond: Well, if I win, I'M going! Sorry if you're not!

Hmmmmmm.... think that'll ruin 21 years???

If partner dude says you can't go, just tell him to expect a call from SunshineCindy. :rotfl:

[tghamilton]

Love it! Thanks for being so good to us Tricia!

I'm guessing there would be SOMEONE who would go in his place!! Afterall, we wouldn't even dare to question how often one could possibly embrace the Disney magic in one calendar year!! :rotfl:

[~Kathie]

You all need to BACK OFF(V & Micheal) I am gonna win that cruise. :rotfl:

None of you have a chance. April 2nd is my brithday! I'm going to win!!! :rotfl:

Besides.......Tricia has to justify spending that extra $$ to include
Rhode Island!!! :sunshine2:


Good luck everyone!!!

[~Kathie]

April 2 is my birthday. So everyone....we want ME to have a great birthday. SOOOO... step away from the prize. It was meant for me....:)

Thanks Tricia! Very exciting!

Angela!!! April 2nd is my birthday too!!! :rotfl:

Too funny!!!

[schachteles]

WOW how awesome would that be...kinda depressing to have to wait 6 months, but it is worth the wait.

Let the games begin!! :rotfl:

[cglaura]

Ok, I'll put the odds more in everyone's favor.....I'll make the entries one less b/c I'm not entering....Open water scares the bajeebers out of me. No, way, no how! So sad, I live 10 minutes from the beach and can't even step in the water, let alone float around on it for days!!!

Good luck to all!

[mjjmbnmm]

I know what you mean about the water, some how my husband talked me into the cruise in Oct., but I'm having second thoughts.

[MdCaterer]

Wow, Awesome Contest!!!!

[Susan137]

Wow, this is so cool!!

[disneynut]

AWESOME. SR ROCKS. :cooldance: :sunshine: :sunshine:

[Hedy]

1. If we win, could we pay extra for another person in our cabin?
2. If we win, and we would be eligible for the onboard credit, would we get it?

I like to be very exact in my daydreams. :cool: :blush:

Daydream away. LOL!

1) You can pay extra if you want more than 2 people in your cabin. You could also pay the difference to upgrade to a different cabin. :)

2) The cruise contest itself is completely separate from earning the onboard credits. If you are a good cookie, you'll earn your $50 in credits and then get the cruise on top of it!

[luvdisney]

I love this contest! I hope I win my Sister and I will go and leave the kids home.

[Soccer Princess]

April 2 is my birthday. So everyone....we want ME to have a great birthday. SOOOO... step away from the prize. It was meant for me....:)

Thanks Tricia! Very exciting!

Well MY birthday is April 1st, so I think this prize should go to me! :) lol :rotfl: I have had to deal with April Fool's Day birthdays my whole life -- this could make up for it! ;)

[Soccer Princess]

Okay say my DMIL (who is a SR member) wins the cruise -- could she "give" the cruise to my DH and I or would she have to be in the cabin? Just asking to see if I should tell her to enter or not -- she shops enough for both of us! lol

The member actually has to have the cruise in their name. It's non-transferrable.

[sunshinecindy]

oh wow, i just registered. oh and you guys can just stop right now! this my 50th birthday present, so just step away from your computers right now!!

You go girl, where I use to work, they took us on a cruise for my 50th (well, it really wasn't for that, just a company paid cruise)but it fell on my Bday.

[Soccer Princess]

Okay I have a question -- did we start out with 1 entry for entering the contest and THEN an additional entry for each survey and shopping credit? What time of day will that page update?

[m4travels]

Ummmmmmm....... Tricia, if you keep advertising this contest more people are going to be entering. If more people enter my odds of winning start dropping. This is not acceptable!!! :angel:

Michael

[SunshineGirl]

Yes. Every person gets 1 just for entering. Then that page should update I think in the middle of the night when all of the shopping credits get done (like 4am?). If you don't see it move, let me know and I'll have SG look at it.

Okay so if I got credit for a survey on 10/2 and 10/3 then I should have 3 entries right now, correct? The cruise page is only showing 2 for me.

[mollyeilis]

What is the page supposed to look like once we click to "register"? It's just taking me back to the same page, with no apparent changes. :confused:

Nevermind. I went back to my email, and magically there was an email about the Cruise (how weird is THAT, since I was just in my email!), clickety-clicked, and the page NOW states that I'm entered and have a few entries.

Magic.

[m4travels]

Okay so if I got credit for a survey on 10/2 and 10/3 then I should have 3 entries right now, correct? The cruise page is only showing 2 for me.

I believe that your 10/3 survey was just updated to your account this morning. The cruise entry updates every 24 hours so you'll see the additional entry tomorrow.

Michael

[Soccer Princess]

Oh okay!!! Thanks for clearing that up! I was having a ditzy moment. :)

[m4travels]

Oh okay!!! Thanks for clearing that up! I was having a ditzy moment. :)

I have those ALL the time - no, you don't! YES, I DO!! Stop arguing with me! Who's arguing???

Hmmmm.... it may be more than just being ditzy on my end.....

[bs4free]

Trica, We would never dream of not reading your e-mails, They always contain vita information....

:sunshine: grest contest!!!:sunshine:

keeeping my fingers crossed!

[speechteachri]

This contest is a brilliant idea!! I'm excited about it!

I just placed my first two shopping orders for the new quarter, so 2 more entries!!!:cooldance:

[3dog2kidmom]

[bs4free]

Question about contest entries, Dose placing an order via an SR link for a site that pays 0% still count as an entry into the contest... AKA amazon.com because in reality this is still a shopping credit only at 0% right...

I wish we could. But Amazon won't even track who the individual purchases come from. They just give us a lump sum report each day.
