Question pls...

Actually 2. We leave next Friday the 26th to go to Disney World. Does anyone know if All Star Movies has computers with internet access in the lobbys or anywhere that guests can use if you are staying there? Also, is $150-$175/day enough for food and souvenirs?

Thanks for any advice or tips!

Why not get the Disney Dining Plan. It would only be $87 a day, for all 3 of you. Then you'll have plenty of money for just about any souvenirs you want.

i'll see if i can add it =)

I added the dining plan for the 3 of us for 5 nights for only $324.99. I am so psyched! Thanks for the advice!

I'm glad you did, you wont be disapointed. Now hurry up and make some ADRs. TODAY.

We just returned from WDW and had the dining plan. It was great (my sons are 6 and 8)!! But you HAVE to make ADRs now.

Every day we saw people being turned away from TS restaurants. Sometimes it was 11:00 in the morning and the restaurant said it was booked for the entire day, including dinner.

If you need suggestions on where to eat, go over to the Disney Restaurants board http://www.disboards.com/forumdisplay.php?f=14

We didn't spend any extra money on food. We brought granola and cereal bars for breakfast and ate them while getting ready in the morning. The food on the dining plan was more than I could possibly eat!!

My family does not spend very much money on souvenirs. My sons each spent $35 on misc toys. Unless you are already into pin trading, you might skip that because you can spend a lot of money fast!! We bought 2 autograph books and pens for around $20 total. And then we bought a CD with all of our Photopass pictures on it for $100.

I hope you have a wonderful trip!!

I'm sorry to eavesdrop, but what does ADR stand for? Also apologize for interrupting.

ADR = Advance Dining Reservation

About the computers... I don't think they have a business center at any of the All Stars. But there are a few business centers on property. My DH used the one at the GF last December.

However, I have heard that some of the resorts will print off boarding passes for you, if that's what you need.

Here is what we do with our money. There is 3 of us as well. What we do is we fiqure out what our spending money would be after paying hotel, gas, dining and whatever else. Then take the money we have leftover and divide it by the number of days and then divide by 3. Then we have that money for that day what we dont use that day we add to the next day.

Example We have $2500 (used to stay of site and drive)

1. $500.00 hotel (rounded up w/taxes etc.) Econolodge type hotel
2. $300.00 gas ($30 a fill up gives us 10 fill ups and takes us about 3 down and 3 back)
3. $700.00 Food (7 nights = $100 a day) do same with this as well we spend $75.00 one day we add the $25 to another day.
4. $1000 for souveniers for 7 days =$142.00/3 = $47. per person per day.

We usually dont buy anything the first day or two we go window shopping and then towards the end we buy it so we may end up having $300 to buy stuff with at the end and normally forget some stuff we wanted to get and we usually come home with some money leftover.
