My Favorite Disney Memory by Brenda

Welcome to our special Disney Memories Week and Giveaway”! This week, while I’m on vacation, we are celebrating Disney’s year long “Let the Memories Begin” theme: each day, one of our great writers will share a favorite Disney memory….and will provide you with a chance to win a $50 Disney gift card. From now until Sunday July 10, you will have up to 2 chances to enter each day by commenting on the blog post and/or our Facebook page.  The more days/times you comment, the more chances you have to win. (But please, to be fair to everyone: only ONE blog entry and ONE Facebook entry per person per day…)

Please note: ONE winner will be selected from all who enter by midnight ET, on Sunday, July 10. Good luck….and Let the Memories Begin!

Announcing Disney Memories Week and Giveaway

Many folks (including myself) have found Disney’s “Let the Memories Begin” promotion this year to be a touching way to celebrate something that we all….Disney veteran or first-timer….associate with a Disney vacation: the opportunity to create special, lasting memories with those we love. Few things are more precious…or priceless….than these moments we share with family and friends on a Disney vacation.

I bring this up because, I am getting ready to leave for vacation next week, and while I wish I could say that we were going to be traveling to Walt Disney World, I am still excited nonetheless to have a chance to unwind at the beach for an entire week. Now, those of you who have been regular readers of The Affordable Mouse for a while, know that when I go on vacation, I like to bring you guys back a souvenir or two as giveaways. 🙂 And as I talked about this with our wonderful writers, we thought it might be fun to tie my vacation giveaway for you into some fun and games as well, all celebrating what Disney does best…create memories.
