Sadly, Treasure Finder is just one time use. AND as a bonus there is a high probability that if you don't move fast you will not find any treasure.  If you don't hit it before it ends you get nothing.  I watched it happen over and over lastnight, it was kind of painfull.  That said just about anything else is a better prize, even if it does look cool for 30 seconds. On a side note one time use magig is shapeing up as I imagined...I don't like it.

As far as codes, Prizes are random as are times they dispense codes.  Several of us believe we got an extra code while at the same time I think I never got a code on an account I have.  It appears it ussually comes within 24 hours if you submitted it and it come to you e-bay mail box in case there was question.  

With those questions out of the way we are on to Day 4 and the Mickeys appear obvious. The location however is up for debate.  Many seem to think it is the Haunted Mansion in Tokyo. I have studied many pictures tonight, and I am pretty sure it is WDW. The two mansions look almost identical in structure to me. The pictured mansion appears to be fairly new at the time of the picture clean, fresh and young landscape.  The key points would be overall appearance the building pictured is not run down, clean look, color, no broken windows flowers in foreground taken from a side with plenty of lighting.  This to me is consistant with WDW. Tokyo appears rundown and mossey, broken windows up top on left.pictures apear to have a lot of trees around and in front where the picture was shot.

There is no doubt in my mind that it is the mansion from WDW. The most deciding factor for me is the wind vane, the ebay picture has it and so does the one from WDW, while the one from Tokyo does not. Although they look quite the same I find lots of little differences that lead me to believe this is the Mansion from WDW. Take a look at the side door in the sun room and also at the top of each turret there is sort of either a heart or crown shaped piece of metal at the tip of of the turrets.

I'm definitely going with Adventure on this one!  :thumbs:

I had already received today's codes from yesterday's entry but later on the day I received two more. They were two new codes and when I typed them in they worked. Could this be a mistake or could I have already gotten tomorrow's codes?

Isn't the answer Fantasyland at Disneyland? The end of Disneyland at Disneyland Resort is cut off and actually reads Disneyland at Disneyland Resort Paris!  :)

I think the same thing happened here - when I got up this morning, the fifth sets of codes were in my ebay boxes and I had only entered four days so far.  So, yes, double codes are happening sometimes.  Maybe eBay was trying to make up for some confusion the first couple days.
