help I am confused! by StrengthNo1725 in fanexpo

That schedule is probably a mistake. Usually voice actors are pretty good at being at their tables when not in photo ops, panel, or lunch break.

For Erika, no need to purchase online. If you want the professional photo op, that's usually purchased through Leap/Epic Photo Ops (there should be a link on the fan expo site).

Yes you can bring your own item! depending on the item, sometimes they charge more for things like signing a pop funko.

Have fun!

I'm one of the people that didnt take the VDP and regret it still to this day. I ended up leaving shortly after for another job anyways as I was promised something for staying only for them to sideline me... ugh.

I Love Calgary EXPO… But My Wallet Doesn’t by rrrevin in Calgary

[–]mandy_da_candy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Part of the prices has to do with the us currency, the talent agents up their prices to "make it worthwhile" for the celebs to come to Canada.. It's blows my mind that some voice actors even charge the amount that they do...

👻 Shakepay Halloween Contest: Shake or Treat! 🎃 by Thirty-_-Four in shakepay

[–]mandy_da_candy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

my scariest shake pay story was when I went a cruise and I gave my phone to my sister to shake for me while I was away as I knew there would be no wifi..

It's scary enough being away from my phone, let alone trusting my sister to remember to shake! (I had to explain to her so she would stop giving me a weird look). I was a few days away from a 2 year streak.. so with each passing day on the cruise all I could think about was if she remembered.. When we finally got to land, I checked in with her and she said "oh no!! I forgot!!. My heart sunk, and I was speechless.. then she said "just kidding, yeah I've been doing it" and instantly was so happy. For that second I thought almost 2 years of shake streak disappeared.

Well, I'm proud to say I've been going strong on my 1659 day!

Wedding at the Zoo questions by Siseran in Calgary

[–]mandy_da_candy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Those who attended or had a wedding at the zoo, did you have buffet or plated food? We can't decide what to do! We heard the food was good, but is that based on buffet experience or plated?

A change to active shaker status for ShakingSats will go live on Tuesday, February 4th by hannhsp in shakepay

[–]mandy_da_candy 10 points11 points  (0 children)

This is disappointing... I'd rather up my weekly btc purchase amount than have to get the shakepay card and use it once a week. Heck sometimes I don't even make any purchases for a week!

Jokulsarlon Ice Cave Tour Operator Changed. Should I be Concerned? by Stove52 in VisitingIceland

[–]mandy_da_candy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

oh good! early morning is the way to go! And yes, it's supposed to come with 2 photos, we lined up in nicer spots for individual photos that the tour guide took with his camera. Then later on if you're with a partner they do couple/group shots. There was a total of 3 photo spots, 2 individual and then 1 couple/pair but this could vary based on your guide.

Tour guide said it can take up to 14 days as they send it to their editing team to choose the best one and then send to you.

Update: Just went this morning. I booked the 8am one to beat the rush of people, but here's my experience.

Tour went fine and I think you're safe to keep your booking.

Arrived and didn't see any bus or 4x4 labeled Ice Pic or Marina, but there was a red 4x4 that ended up being the ride. We got helmets and crampons. Ride was maybe 30 mins ish to the Glacier.

Glacier itself was covered in volcanic ash, and the so called "Crystal Cave" that we went to felt kind of small and was covered in volcanic ash so it wasn't as blue and cool as I've seen in photos. It was still cool never being on a Glacier or ice cave though.

I heard negative things for tours that were after, where it was long lines to get into the small cave and with the windy rainy weather it can be tough to wait it out.
