They will be running the promotion from 8/8 till 8/15 and you have to be willing to use your room by 12/30/08. Also, you pay for it at the time and there are no refunds!! (Not that your loss would be too, huge, but you better know exactly where you want to go and when, 'cause you are making a non-refundable, non-changeable reservation right that minute.)

Good luck, everyone! And thanks, MOLLYSMOM! I hope as many of us as possible are able to take advantage of this.

Originally Posted By LuLu Wow - great tip, thanks! >>I don't think it will be impossible to get two nights per couple, but they're not going to make it easy!!<< No, and they shouldn't. And if you do, I'd guess they'd make you check out, store your stuff, and do a new check in after 3pm for the 2nd reservation. These are so limited that if you get 1 per family you should be very grateful! I'm gonna try!!

Originally Posted By LuLu I don't even know what night to try for! I guess maybe Candlelight weekend... I could get an AP then that would be good thru next year's big bash!
Originally Posted By LuLu Did anyone get a room? I'm still watching the 8 go 'round and 'round... I think I missed out... it was 5:04 when I remembered. Maybe subsequent days will be easier ??
Originally Posted By LuLu Geeez...... After 20 minutes it finally went thru... a few more minutes to get to the hotel page... my rewards # wouldn't go thru so I entered everything manually... then I get a message that the site is down for maintenance! This is too stressful! :-D
