Good work Emily! Have you got the free razor yet? Any trick to that....like an exact time to try for it daily? I've seen those cute pink bag before... Maybe willing to sell used ones? wink. wink. I left a note for my inlaws to pick up that water bottle at disney. hope it's a princess one!

Sorry i read on Deal Seaking Mom it's a water bottle at disney? where did you read it's a bag?

I just assumed it's a bag, because when you go to the Disney link I listed there is a big picture of a bag underneath the earth day stuff--you have to bring in 3 empty water bottles to get the "free gift," but I guess it doesn't actually specify anywhere that I can see that the "free gift" is a bag. . .I guess we'll find out on Wednesday!

On the free razor thing, I think it resets everyday at 12pm Eastern, so 10am for us. I haven't gotten one yet, I'm always too late. I'll try again tomorrow.
