Just wondering what kinds of things people use their Disney rewards card for? Suggestions??

The Disney rewards are great! I had $205 in rewards for our trip in June. Spent them at food carts all over the parks, in gift shops and at the pin store in DTD. The only place the card didn't work was at a couple of the fancier coffee stands in World Showcase that may be subcontracted out to a different company. Otherwise, it's accepted just like a credit card or room charge. It paid for a lot of food and souvies.

Plan on using it to pay for our stay at fw campground. Should have just enough by the time we go. :)

I used a little bit at the Ocala welcome center shop once. The rest all goes to the Belz Mall Disney stores. Particularly when we were there for the tent sale in the Spring, they cleaned me out!

We have a DVC membership and will use our rewards towards the yearly maintenance fees. As a matter of fact, I just opened a new account for DH to get 50 Bonus Points!

I have used mine at gift shops and for food. I am now saving up for our DCL cruise in January.

We have enough for one annual pass and are hoping to have enough rewards points for most of another one by the time our current ones are outdated.

We have enough saved to pay for lunch every day of our vacation (13 days) and probably one nice dinner.

I've used it for dinner at Ohana, trasferred my balance at the AKL, transferred the balance to my on board cruise account and plan on using the card for meals this upcoming trip. After I use up the balance the next earnings are going towards our 2005 cruise.

I, too, just paid our annual dues for our DVC with our reward points. I use the Disney Visa just like a debit card, writing it in my checkbook each time I use it so we don't carry a balance. Our goal is to never have to use "real money" to pay our dues each year. Before I paid the dues last week, we had over $500 in Reward Points.
You just can't beat free money!:hyper:

I will be using some for the Keys to the Kingdom Tour in November.

I used ours to pay for what our vouchers didn't on most of our meals. I also bought some souvenirs with it. The only place I ran into a problem with it was in EPCOT's Japan, where the CM in the giftshop told me that their registers were not set up to accept the rewards cards. I ended up paying for that purchase with Disney Dollars instead.

I'm going to use some of mine for the Hoop Dee Doo Revue.
We've never done that and have heard it's lots of fun.:wave:

Have $400 so far for trip in Dec '05. Plan to use them for MVMCP & Cirque tickets (3 adult/ 1 child) and Illumination cruise (crossing fingers I can book one.) Any extra will be for souvineers.

I plan to use them on souvenirs!! I only have $114 reward dollars right now for our trip in 2 weeks, but that will be enough for us.

I have never been a big credit card shopper but with all the double rewards I have been charging every single thing I can and am racking up quite a few.
I plan to use them to add days to our upcoming trip. I would rather have more days than anything else.

We used some of ours for food on our last trip. We have a balance on the card...it expires in Dec 05. We are planning a Dec 05 trip, so it will work out well. If the trip falls through, however, we will use whatever rewards we have by then and buy parkhoppers, since they never "spoil"...LOL:p
