Pay OOP for one person at meal vs. using credit?

[Sammy]

I'm sure this has been answered somewhere before, but I can't find it anywhere (lovely search feature that it is.....). Here's my question:

Crunching #'s to see if DDP will work for us this trip. DD is 11, so counts as "adult" for DDP, although she eats like a bird. If we go to a TS restaurant, and she wants to order something small (like just an appetizer), can I pay OOP for her and use credits for the rest of us? We have no "children" credits, just adult....

Thanks,
Sammy

We do this all the time. There is so much food. You just have her order OOP and be sure your server knows. Also it will obviously not work on Buffets. Have fun. DH and I share credits and pay OOp for some things and this way can go to more restaurants!

Thanks for the reply! I am counting her as a full credit for the buffets, but it would be nice not to use a TS credit for her if she's only going to eat an appetizer-sized portion that evening.
