Basic or Deluxe with OOP Meals

[buzz1fan]

We are going in June, for 4 nights. We will be at their at Disney for almost 5 whole days. Our Party consists of my husband, myself, Son (5) Son (2 free). It is 299 to upgrade to the deluxe plan. Right now, we are going to be paying for 2-3 extra TS meals since we are not leaving on the check out day until later, and have a TS Breakfast scheduled. Possibly may do one more to make 3.

IT seems like after I add in the OPP TS, and a few CS and snacks, that we are at the deluxe price, especially with the Holiday pricing. This is with no Signature dining or Shows.

Does it seem like I am missing something. If we where staying anymore nights, i know it would not be worth it, but I am still debating on this shorter trip.

Any help would be great.:confused3

12 credits over 5 days doesn't sound like too much to me. You're already planning on having 7-8 TS meals, and the rule of thumb is that Deluxe is worth it as an upgrade over Basic if you use at least 2/3 of the credits (8) on TS meals. Adding in the holiday surcharge, you should at least break even at 7 TS.

I decided what meals I wanted to do above our credit allotment, and priced them out. Decided the upgrade wasn't worth it for us.
