buy the ones on promotion. they normally have at least 2 half price and with AP discount you get an extra 20% off! I worked it out to cost 1€ 70 each! bargan

I now have the Mary Poppins celebration edition (present from my Dad yesterday :D) and the Jafar and Madam Mim spinners! Decided to leave Ursula and Snow White till I get paid next week :)

On a separate note, is there any way you can recommend CMs from the Disney Stores in the same way you can recommend them at City Hall in DLP?? The reason I ask is the girl who served me and my Dad in the Arndale Centre store yesterday was SO lovely. I don't know whether any of the members here who visit that store have encountered her, her name's Sarah... Anyway, usually when I go in and ask to look at the pins they look at me a little funny, but this girl just asked me if I was a pin collector and when I said yes she said she's always on Pinpics finding what she can buy next (lol!)... I was after the Jafar and Madam Mim spinners predominantly so I asked her which spinners they had left and she said they had Madam Mim and Ursula and she thought they had one Jafar left.. Anyway she said she'd check and then went searching through 4 boxes full of pins for about 5 minutes to try and find the Jafar one; she didn't find it in the end but it was so nice that she tried :) I was hoping she'd be there again when I went back today but unfortunately she wasn't :(

:D Sarah is lovely! I was chatting with her today. :P Me and my mum like her so much that when we went to DLRP in April we tracked down a Giselle pin which my mum traded for so we could trade it to Sarah, since that's the character she has on her name badge. We get on really well with the staff in the Manchester store, so we try and get pins of their fave characters so that they can trade them off the lanyards for their own collection.

Today I traded for the new G-Force pin and a nice little framed Belle pin, which I ended up trading to my mum because she wanted it.

I have to say because of pin trading I have been able to speak to some great staff members in my local store in belfast! It's great when they are so helpful! :D

Can't wait to go tomorrow and get the mary poppins and snow white pins!! :D

I feel exactly the same way Aveen.  Some of the regular Cast Members I speak to at my local Disney Store are actually friends of mine on FaceBook now..  :D/  

Goes to show what can evolve from simply Pin Trading..  :o  :D

Totally, it's only because of a member of this forum (Magic238) that I am so into pin trading! She works in the Belfast store on Saturdays and recognised me one time and encouraged me to do my first trade! unfortunately I don't get to see her much as I am often not down on Saturdays but I am now known my certain staff members and can have a wee chat with them which is nice...although they probably think I am very sad indeed :P  :oops:  :lol:

He-he, when my local got refurbished, I went in and started taking photo's of inside the store, now that got some looks, and comments aswell..  :roll:

What was that word again, oh yes 'Sad'..  :lol:  :lol:  :mrgreen:

But that day seems quite away in the distance now, especially thinking of the staff I've gotten to know..   :wink:  :D
