I am in the beginning stages of planning a trip for just me and my DH. I am trying to decide to meal plan or not to meal plan although I really have plenty of time to think about it. We are wanting to go in early Dec. for 4 nights. We did the meal plan last summer with all the kiddos. It worked out fine but I found it to be a lot of food and a lot of waiting. We went in Aug so the park was fairly full but not overwhelming. On this trip I know I want to do 2 TS meals but would just as soon do CS for the remainder of the meals. With it being to two of us I am hoping we can be more flexible. Has anyone done the CS plan and then pay OP for a couple of TS meals? My estimated cost for the 2 TS meals I am looking at is $110. This doesn't include alcohol which would be our preferred beverage choice since we have no kiddos. The cost difference to upgrade to the basic DP is $75 so it would it would be more reasonable to do the basic DP but somehow I am not wanting to do all the planning it takes for all the TS meals not to mention the waiting. It would also allow us to eat 2 extra meals on our trip if we got the CS only package. This of course would be breakfast which we would otherwise just grab a cereal bar on the way out the door. Just looking for a few opinions or if anyone has done this. Thanks!
