Where do you all do this "converting" to snacks from QS credits? Is it at your resort somewhere?
usually at the resort. You can trade 1CS credit for 3 snack items. It's up to the CM working if they'll let you do this or not.
This is 100% accurate. I just want to add one more idea.
A CS Credit is a Drink, a dessert, and an entree. The first two are already snacks. You can quite often substitute a dessert/fruit/fries for your entree in the park and pretty much accomplish a conversion without actually using the word convert. Also, in the park, you can occasionally get a cold sandwich (or uncrustable) for the road as part of your CS credit. We often do this at Main St Bakery on our last day when we used the Dining Plans.
Thanks to the tips on this thread, I called disney reservations and was able to upgrade my 9 year old son to the adult plan. He eats well and isn't afraid to try new things and we knew he'd want the adult selections for our TS meals.
We obviously had to upgrade the ticket to adult, but with free dining during our week, it was only a $25 cost.
The agent at disney was great to work with and said they get a lot of 8-9 year old boys that tend to upgrade with their growing appetites. This will make our lives easier at both TS and CS.
Thanks DISers!!!! My wife says he'll eat that $25 in his first meal. HA!
Does anyone know if Disney makes there own Mac and Cheese or is it a name brand?
Just a friendly reminder. So long as Disney's written policy clearly states that kids credits must be used for kids meals, that's what we can discuss for tips and tricks on the boards.
Hints or suggestions on how to work around Disney's written policy will be removed from this thread.
For those interested in tracking credits on their own, check out the creative DISigns board. They offer several punch cards that you can carry that will help you out.
Thanks
I know at least Liberty Tree Tavern is sponsored by Stauffers..so the Mac and Cheese is from Stauffers. I don't think that any of the restaurants "make their own" from what I have seen of my kids meals.

I don't think this is accurate. Not even looking at the numbers here, just going off my own situation (I'm doing the same thing for ds), and based off what I already know.
The $25 sounds about right for the increase in ticket price, but the upgrade for CS to TS is $11 per night, if you are there for say a 6 night week, that's $66. Add the ticket upgrade, that's around $91. Of course the cost would go up, the more nights you stay.
Still a good deal to me, but not $25.
Its accurate if the poster has free dining. I know because that is what we did. Upgraded our 9yo son to adult. All you pay is the difference in ticket price. Then since dining is free, he can order off the adult menu since he is listed as an adult.
