Has anyone received a Backstage Pass magazine recently? The past two years the Winter edition included a shopping coupon but with only a little more than two weeks until Christmas I haven’t received one.

:confused:

I just got mine a few days ago. Why do they only send one per household, even though we have multiple APs here?

It's not online either. They usually post it there before I recieve it in the mail and I haven't recieved it in the mail neither

I havent gotten one all year either. I am still waiting on my confirmation from Grand California for October that I booked a few months ago.

Did you renew at the same time? I renewed both passes together, so maybe that's why. The odd thing is, I renewed using my partner's renewal form but it comes addressed to me.

No we didn't, but the thing with my daughter is odd because her AP is registered at her dad's address, not mine.

The only coupon I saw that can be used at the resort is the pretzel store.

My Backstage Pass came yesterday. I gave it a quick flip through and tossed it because I didn't find anything interesting, and it was a bit thin. Sort of disappointing for an issue about the holidays to show up on the 17th when So Cal passes are valid up until the 18th and Deluxe until the 19th. When I remember it should have some I read it online, but it's still fun to get it in the email. This issue was not fun, though.

We got ours today.

Besides the pretzel coupon, there are offers for AP holders to buy one large candle, get one half price at Illuminations; save 15 percent at the Disney Store through Dec. 20 (hurry! LOL); APs who spend $100 or more at Lego in DD will receive a $10 Lego gift card in addition to the 10 percent AP discount; APs get free skate rental at Irvine Spectrum Center's holiday ice rink; there is an AP price of $45 for two people for the annual Gingerbread House workshop at the Jazz Kitchen (last date is Dec. 20); and a buy one, get one free to the Pacific Symphony performance of "Nutcracker for Kids." (Of course, the Nutcracker thing was held Dec. 13, so finding about that on Dec. 18 was kind of pointless, but it's the thought that counts, right? :p)

I've kept all the ones we've received since getting our first APs in Sept '07, and they seem to always send them out way too late for most of the deals/information in them. It's like the people in charge of sending them aren't reading them.

That said, I haven't gotten mine yet. :( Oh, and sometimes only I get mine, sometimes 2 of us get them, and once all 3 of us got one. We each have different last names (hubby and I kept our own names, and DS is hyphenated) which explains the "all 3" time, but the other times I just don't get. It's the same address though.

The Magazine has been intermitent for me as well... I thought they dropped it all together once... could of sworn I read about it here on MP ... then they started showing up again......... Now if I can just keep them from sending that dam Family Fun magazine! I keep calling them, and telling them NOT to send it to me...... They always remind me "it's free!", but I do not have a faimly, so what is the point? It's just filling the trash....... So, BSP comes sometimes, FF shows up almost every month...... sigh

We live in Northern California (Palo Alto) and haven't received one since before Halloween.

Doug- We get THREE copies of Family Fun and THREE copies of Wondertime! I can't make it stop. Their suggestion "give it to a friend" was ridiculous!

And yet... we have not received a Backstage Pass since July when it was handed to us with our APs.

I haven't recieved mine yet, and since our AP's expire today :crying: I dont anticipate getting one anytime soon. Oh well, I'll just have to wait and see if we start getting them again when we renew in april....

I agree with you Doug - seems like that they don't care if people like the family fun magazine or even that fact of wasting money on making the family fun magazine especially when people never had requested them to begin with

I've gotten it when I'm lapsed about as often as when I have a pass. Really it's not as good as it was a few years ago, I just make sure to check it online every so often to see if I'm missing something I'd be interested in.

We haven't gotten ours yet either, but we seem to get them later than everyone else - Max and I each get them too, not sure why...
