When you are right, you are right. I didn't think that the discount would have been mentioned by the original poster if it did not apply to the store the girlfriend bought the item from.

However, after reading the post a second time, I agree with you that it was not stated as fact. The discounts were just sort of thrown out there as a part of the general conversation.

So, if it was not a store that offers Disney discounts, naturally Disney isn't going to give a hoot about the store's behavior. However, those stores that do get a plug from Disney by offering discounts to Disney cast members (what they call their employees), guard that extra advertising ... seriously. Even a 10% discount doesn't prevent them from getting a good profit on their goods, and the extra business that Disney throws their way amounts to quite a hunk of change.

Carry on ..... I don't think I'll be here much for the next day or two. Way more to do than I can handle.
