:shudder: Strollers! :/shudder:

As was said above by others - people win the room every single day. We have no idea who else wins the room.

And to repeat what has been said about 10 times already - the vast majority of people that visit Disneyland are Mom & Dad and Two Kids families. Odds are that they would win. I'm all for remembering that not everyone is configured that way, but the majority at Disneyland still are.

If the contest were run as a scratch off or scan your entry media into a machine to see what you've won sort of deal instead of being randomly picked out by a person, would that change your opinion of the winners?

As has been said just because they're not pictured, doesn't mean that more unphotogenic groups of people aren't winning.

I thought this was billed by Disney as a "Promotion" not a "Contest" I think that supposedly gives them leyway to pick and choose - or so I read in some other thread somewhere - don't have the wherewithall to research it myself.

And is this room really given out every day? Does that mean I can never book it for myself? So a Famly staying for a week, gets one day here and then get shipped back to the Candy Cane Inn?

Where's an Insider who can clear this up for me?

I got a loaf of bread, so my dream has been fullfilled.

It says "one night stay", so yeah, back to Candy Cane Inn. I'm sure they want as much mileage as possible out of it so I would suppose they give this out every day.

That was my understanding as well. I thought it would kind of suck if it came in the middle of your one week stay. Plus I'm guessing you'd still be paying for your room at the Candy Cane that night because it would be too late to cancel.

Not for a year, or at least not in advance.

It is a prize being awarded 367 times through the end of next year. Now, the winner of the prize won't always be able to stay in the room so I suppose it is possible that the hotel will then let someone else in, but I don't know that to be fact.

It is definitely a legally governed prize in the contest (here are the detailed rules as required by law and the penthouse is one of the prizes mentioned).

Well, if I should get it in addition to my loaf - we'll have one hell of a swanking

I'll start frequenting DL with my picture perfect family... I'll let you know when I hit the jackpot.

As am I. I don't get it. Didn't DJ Keith recently win?

Disney, to my mind, has never been about excluding anyone. Weren't they one of the first in the world to start offering partner benefits? And stand up to all the groups that threatened them because of it? They welcome the christians. They welcome the goths. They welcome the gays.

I don't get it.
