While it wasn't free when I bought it, the refillable mugs at the hotels are a nice souvenier and then the FREE soda each time I go back to the hotels is a nice perk, too!

OK...OK...OK...Just kidding! :ccat:

You might be kidding but we were there last year and there was a man filling up his Quick Trip mug with "free soda." I watched and assumed someone might tell him it wasn't ok, but no one did. My problem with the "Free Soda" mugs is that after a few years they take over a whole cabinet in the kitchen and I don't want to get rid of them because I associate them with happy times. Now that I am thinking about it, maybe I should go fill a bag and drop them off at Goodwill...and start new memories...except for the one that actually says Dixie Landings and has the Brer family on it. I love that one.

I know what you mean kcookiebear, I have a bunch of these mugs too. But, I just can't part with the ones that are specific to each resort, since they don't make those anymore. The new ones lack character, they're easier to part with.

I've seen people using mugs from years past, which I'm surprised I've never seen a CM tell them that's not allowed?!

I don't think you can post a link to a picture via Gmail.

You'll have to use Flickr, Photobucket, Picasa, or something like that.

Wow! That is one awesome piece! I definitely would have taken the SE..especially since I have the monorail set too.

...and we bought the millenium music CD, and we still love to listen to it!

I always thought that monorail set was pretty cool, but too expensive for me...plus it takes up a little too much space! We own 2 millenium cd's :roll: On one of our trips I bought one and my Mom bought one for me as a Christmas gift...guess that is what happens when you don't shop together on vacation :D I gave her mine, so now we each have our own copy :lol:
