Lightbulb PhotoPass tip...

A helpful tip on the PhotoPass cards... I took the tip to take a photo of the backside of the card w/ the #s on it (or write it down somewhere). Last year I went to view the photos and did not realize until later that I no longer had the card !!! There were about 70+ photos on it.... Anyways, when I went to get the CD w/ all the photos from the new card, they could bring up the "lost photos" as well ... I just pulled the picture up w/ the #s on it. They thought that was great and it saved alot of sad feelings! (allears website tip).

I also write my cell phone number on the card (since I always travel with small permanent marker, of course!) or I stick a small return label on it.

Yes a good one! I also put a return address label on mine just in case it gets lost or the photog has more than one in their hand. I actually met a photog who's college best friend was from my small hometown.

I take a photo of the card and write my cell phone number on it. I have used the same card for the last 3 trips.

So, to re-use the same card, do they clear it when they make the CD of photos?

Great tip! One of the Disney CM told me to take a photo of the card when they gave it to me. I'm glad I did because the numbers do wear off very easily!

We were travelling with my inlaws, and wanted the family pics on both cards, so I put an address label on mine to be sure I always got my card back.
In the future, I would also consider a separate card for each theme park. Because of a business trip in the middle of our vacation we ended up doing our park days a week apart and getting multiple cards. I thought I had lost one when I was packing (I found it) but realized that if I had, I would only have lost one day's worth of pictures, not all of them.

Thanks for the Address Label tip. I think I will use this one and if I can, I'll use my same card again! That way I can have it ready when I go into the park and not have to fiddle w/ the labels and trying to find them on Main St. or somewhere.

Your card is cleared for you by Disney...they do it a month after the last photo was taken.

So when you get home, you preview all the phots and chose the ones you want to buy? No fees up front? What are the prices on the photos?
