I can't seem to find information on when the annual passholder early shopping day is.
I was thinking it was coming up next weekend?
anyone with any information, I would greatly appreciate it.
Thank you

Interestingly enough, I cannot find a thing on the A/P website which announces this event. Rumours on the street suggest that the World of Disney store in Disneyland has something going on from 6:30-9:00 am on the 4th, but I haven't found anything for Disney World.

However, it appears that Epcot will be hosting a type of Passholder Appreciation Days beginning Saturday. Details from the A/P site are below:

December 4-11, 2010, Epcot® World Showcase is giving back to you, our Walt Disney World® Passholders to say thanks for making our 2010 merry and bright.

At select locations at Epcot World Showcase, you will find special offers and giveaways just for Passholders! Plus, there's a special opportunity to meet a Disney Traditions Folk Artist who will be hosting a signing at American Adventure on Saturday, December 4, 2010 from 11:30 a.m. - 1:30 p.m. & 2:30 p.m. - 4:30 p.m.

Carol,
Yeh, that's the only information I could find also.
For the past 3 years or so my GF and I have woke up at 3:30am to drive from Daytona for the event, and she is planning on the doing the same this weekend. Yikes...On one hand, I don't wanna make the trip for nothing...but the other hand, I don't want to wake up that early either...lol
It will be a big BUMMER if this event has been nixed...you don't know how many times she told me on Black Friday...no, we better save $$ for Downtown Disney's version.

I know how many INTERCOT members have taken advantage of this special sale in the past. I hope for your sake they haven't decided to nix another passholder perk. I'll keep looking for more information - but if memory serves correct, this would have been announced by now if it was going to happen . . .
