How else do you win??

We're leaving in 16 hours and here's what I've gathered so far: Go to dinoland early, cross the frontierland bridge repeatedly, walk up and down Main st and stand in line a lot. Sounds like what we usually do anyway. I guess I'll make sure the kids are looking extra cute. My 2yr daughter will be getting her first haircut there tomorrow. My son did as well 5 yrs ago. They make a really big deal out of it and you get free mouse ears!
We'll be surprising by nephews who just left from Philly today and have no clue we're meeting them there. That alone will be magical enough as we haven't seen them in almost year. They're staying at the WL and we're in the WL Villas. Hope to report back on all the fabulous glittering prizes we've won.

It's a random process but you have as good a chance as everyone else to win. Have fun and enjoy all the special holiday touches.

Re: How else do you win??

We went on the Triceratop Spin at about 9:15am. They were giving dream fast passes to everyone in line. It seemed that most of the people with dream fast passes were in this part of the part as soon as it opened. I am not sure if tehy do this everyday, but it seems you haave to get to the parks early to get these passes.

Re: How else do you win??

We won DFP's after riding EE. We had just gotten off the ride and they gave everyone exiting the train the passes. It was about 9:30 in the a.m.

Good luck! I hope you win something.

You can win in all the parks and I've even heard Downtown Disney.

Re: How else do you win??

Dear Dr. Cavey,
I am looking for the top prizes in YOAMD. I am willing to do anything to get a free vacation, DVC membership, or a night in Cindy's Castle. What can I do? My family includes me, my husband, my 13year old son, 5 year old daughter and my 3 year old son.

Thanks,
Desperate To Win


Dear Desperate,

You are certainly not alone in your desires. Millions of vacationers this year are hoping to win the top prizes. Unfortunately, the law of averages state the best prizes will go to one-time vacationers, who will go home and complain how much they didn't like WDW, but are now "stuck" with a 50-year DVC membership.

However, you are obviously one of the true Disney obsessed, and you recognize that desperate times call for desperate measures. The key is making your family as cute and sympathetic as possible. Here are the steps you need to take to get a top dream:

To begin with the basics, everyone in your family should be wearing matching outfits at every park you attend. There is one exception to this. At every moment your daughter should be dressed as a princess. Your family needs to accent this by smiling and skipping everywhere you go.

Next, you and your husband must be the perfect couple. This is best suited by getting matching Mickey & Minnie wedding ears. A sign on your backs should read, "Just" and "Married." Never mind the fact that you are there with kids. No one would expect a couple married 15 years to be this audacious or romantic.

Now, to the children.

We've already discussed your daughter's need to be princess material. Pig tails and a Shriley Temple smile are a must if your daughter is going to rate on the cuteness scale. Remember lots of WDW girls dress as princess, but only a handful can pull it off.

In addition to your newlywed status, your youngest son is celebrating a birthday. That's right. Everyday of your trip, he is to be wearing a birthday button and skipping up to CMs saying, "Today, I'm a big boy."

Now, to your oldest. We all know teenag boys are too "cool" for WDW, and your DS is sure to ruin your efforts. Fortunately for you, he won't have a choice. This is where you will need to purchase a taser Taser M-18 Advanced - Stun Defense Tazer or Taser This device delivers a strong electric shock to the nervous system. Across America paretns are discovering that once their teenager has experienced a taser, they will do anything you ask--smile, skip, where a pink tu-tu. Keep your taser close to yous this trip, and if you must us it, this should be done in privacy, as some politically-correct extremists may frown on this.

Some might find these measures to be dishonest, extreme, perhaps even cruel. Don't worry. These are the same people who will be contented with nothing more than a Golden FastPass.

Have a great trip. Enjoy your dreams!

Oh, once last thing. Do NOT allow your teenager to have access to the taser. This would not be good for you or your husband.

Hahahaha! Dr. Cavey....

....seriously though, can you get wishes granted in EPCOT? Thats the one park where we're spending a full day; otherwise we'll be at the MVMCP and I'm not sure if they'd grant wishes that night or not...?

I saw people wearing their dream passes at Epcot last week. I also saw people getting special front of the line passes to rides like the new Nemo ride.

Re: How else do you win??

wait- so let me see if I get this right..... if we all have to dress up the same and my daughter has to wear a princess dress- should I dress my 3 boys in dresses too? Do they make princess dresses for a 6ft7 man? Im confused And I think I might be able to make him the mermaid but how will he skip with a tail? Not to mention that if I did this all to them. I might be the one tasered- heck I might do it to myself as a sedative!
