Hunny Pot Points...
Mary C. Kraemer
I'm hoping that somebody will know the answer to this one.
I have a ton of Pooh stuff in my house, and lots of it came
with little tags indicating xx number of Hunny Pot Points.
Now what does one do, or what can one do, with these Hunny
Pot Points? Are you supposed to save 'em up and redeem 'em
for stuff? If so...where?
Thanks,

We collected a lot of the honey pot points and got a giant pooh bear, the
interactive storybook CD and some books, but the last I heard the contest
was over. I think it was over at the end of last year. I could be wrong
or maybe they have extended it. The order form came in most of the
packages that the pooh points were on. Maybe someone else knows for sure.

There is a Pooh Fan Club now going on by Disney. Children can be members,
subscribe to a newsletter, participate in offers, etc. The Hunny Pot
Points, I think, are related to that. We got a mailing for it out of the
blue from Disney, but because joining involved spending $25 or so I
"declined" and now I don't know where the mailing is to be able to tell
you more about it or refer you to whare you can take advantge of it.
Perhaps try contacting a Disney Store or calling the Disney Catalog to
inquire further, or perhaps the newsgroup folks can reply directly to you,
Mary, as well as on the newsgroup.
Just trying to help. :-)

I too have some Hunny Pot points saved up and would be interested in
hearing what everyone finds out.
The points I have came off Pooh items NOT sold at the Disney store or
parks. They came from toys and Pooh t-shirts from stores like JC
Penney. Around x-mas, some of these items included a catalogue to order
stuff with the points, but that offer has since expired and I have not
seen a new catalogue since.
Hope this helps somewhat!

Thanks Carol!
This is one way to use the points, but I'm hoping to find others since,
as an adult, I don't think I would get much out of the Club!
