Check out the April sell and recruit promo

to get a night in the Cinderella Castle Suite on June 13.

Aaagh, my April calendar is so bare. This one and the May new product promo are kicking my butt in gear, never mind that I really need the paycheck.

I like the fact that Execs and above are not eligible for the suite. How cool would this be to surprise your family with? What's not clear is if you're not a Disney Incentive Trip achiever, do you have to pay to get yourself there, thus making it not much of an incentive?
 
The way I see it, if you didn't achieve the trip, you'd have to get yourself there.
 
Yes, it looks like you're paying your own way there.

...which is a bummer for those who didn't earn the trip. Not much of an incentive. I was hiding the promo flyer from my daughter. It was enough pressure from my kids just to earn the trip. I don't need her hounding me about winning the night in the suite. She doesn't need to know it exists ;)
 
I'm out. There's no freaking way that I could come all the way from Japan for the one night. :( I was reading it a short while ago & thinking how horrible it would be for them to automatically enter me in the contest ... what if I won??? Could I give it back & tell them to draw another name? Or would no one get it??? I wish we could opt out of the drawing!!!I was out of the See's Chocolates and Starbuck's GC booking blitz too. Couldn't use the Starbucks card here if I wanted & the chocolate would melt in shipping.

LOL - I wouldn't come from Michigan for one night!

Besides - I'm not sure how excited my little guy would be to stay in Cinderella's Castle. :D
 
Are we only entered if we submit the $2500 or 5k for director? It said for every $1 commisionable that we got one entry, but then it said MINIMUM $2500, etc

Not true, I read the fine print in the official rules:

If you are not an achiever of the Celebrate the Magic Incentive Trip Program 2009 (Level Two, Level Three, or Level Four):

The Fairy Tale Come True Drawing prize will include roundtrip transportation for four (the Winner and three guests) to Magic Kingdom® Park. Expenses to and from the Winner’s airport and any checked baggage fees are the responsibility of the Winner.

Guests must depart from the same major gateway city airport or the Winner pays the cost difference.

One-day admission to Magic Kingdom® Park on June 14, 2010 with exclusive Pampered Chef® early morning hours is included. Winner and guests will depart at the end of the day.

No extension will be allowed.

The Winner may not take another Consultant or Director to the Cinderella Castle suite inside the Magic Kingdom® Park as a guest. No substitution, transfer or cash equivalent of prize is permitted, except by The Pampered Chef®, which reserves the right to substitute a prize (or portion thereof) of comparable or greater value, at its sole discretion. Income and other taxes, if any, are the sole responsibility of the winner.


Yeah!

Yeah!


Seriously??? So they will only pay to fly you in one day? Who cares if you want to extend the trip? It won't affect the price of airfare that much- if at all- and you should be able to pay the difference.

Not much of an incentive for non-trip earners, IMHO.
 
I think the extension applies to the Cinderella Suite itself. As in, it is available for people to book, but you won't be allowed to book extra days on your own. If you wanted to stay in the area longer, I don't think that would be an issue.
 
Shoot, if I win, they can fly my family there for one day and I will come home. Just signed up the end of December...BUT I will go........if I have to!
 
I have a couple nieces who would love this!
 
It would take 4 full days of traveling for me to get there & back! LOL Um, would LOVE to see a cash option!!! ;)

Me too....Sheila? What time is it there? LOL

But the fact that they pay for you to get there is better than nothing. An opt-out or cash option would be nice.
