Florida Vacation?
I was offered a leave for $485. All I have to do is listen to a 90 minute sale pitch for property investment. Rental car, hotel, entrance to theme park included. Basically adjectives I have to do is buy gas and food. Anyone ever do this I would approaching to hear from them. This was a telemarket give the name. the company was www.etourandtravel. Is it legit and is it large pressure?

I've done this before... Orlando does indeed enjoy some good deal. but be careful next to offers which come across too good to be true.
For example, I have a recent experience at the Ramada (Maingate West) in Kissimee. Against my better judgement I settled to book a room at this rathole hotel. It was unpaid and my friend didn't want to spend a lot on the room. The hallway are spritzed with a NASTY nouns freshener every five second which is just adequate to hide the reality that the whole place have a fungus odor.
We specifically asked for a smoking room and we DOUBLE CHECKED that the room was indeed a smoking room (to spite the reality that there be a non-smoking sign on every door).
In the middle of the night I get hungry, so I decided to amble downstairs to the lobby. I asked for directions to the snack machine and during my stride encountered what I assumed be a hotel employee closing up the "tiki bar" for the hours of darkness. He asked if I wanted a beer and I agreed, then I asked him if they have any food back nearby. He pulled out two sandwiches and two bagels. I give him a tip. $20 for being a nice guy.
I brought them up to my room and realize they were stale and unedible... so I tossed em within the trash and went to sleep.
At 5am I be awakened by the police. I was person ejected because I was smoking contained by a non-smoking room they said. (I later found out this be a pretense to get into my room)... they confiscated the stale sandwich and told me the man I met downstairs was committing a ROBBERY and that I be accused of man the mastermind of the crime!
After human being Mirandized, I went thru the evenings events next to the officer and the criminal confessed to the crime. I went from self a suspect to a witness. I filled out a crime report and be then CHARGED by the hotel for the beer, the sandwich and the bagels (all uneaten) AND I WAS CHARGED FOR THE ROOM BUT NOT ALLOWED BACK INTO MY ROOM TO SLEEP.
The hotel STOLE my money and then proceeded to communicate me I was LUCKY I wasn't charged $200 to verbs the room even though the hotel manager admit that I was given a smoking room after the certainty.
This is a nightmare experience which I felt should be told to as various people as possible.
I will NEVER stay surrounded by another Ramada. TELL YOUR FRIENDS.

i would light of day their is a catch somewhere as tht is a awfully good operation, how long is the stay ?? x
Their pitch is VERY soaring pressure! You can be stuck there for over 4 hours!
I would not do! You can release money other ways! Like buying your tickets through authorized resellers of disney tickets http://www.OrlandoFunTickets.com and getting discount hotels through biding websites like http://www.PriceLine.com
But these things are a fritter away of time, and they just try to cause people spend beyond their funds!
How long is that vacation? They own timeshare packages that will give you nearly alike thing for abundantly less.
In 2008 one should be suspect of Santa Claus, and or FREE.
Certainly they want you to sign on some dotted line
They are going to show you and try to make you buy a timeshare. We've done it until that time and even bought one. They can be persuasive. If you travel 1-2 times a year to other places, it might be a good deal, but the fees and taxes preserve rising every year so I wouldn't recommend buying it at the full asking price. You can always buy timeshares on the lower market. I would budge, listen, thank them and leave.
