Please help me decide what to do?
This will be our very first trip as a family to the World, have been to Disneyland many times and have never used a dining plan. We have a 3 and 6year old boys, who barely ever eat. We've booked points through a broker at the Beach Club for a week starting January 22nd and then 4 days at AKL savanah view and the first night since we fly in late, we're at ASM. So, only 25 days to go and I'm so so excited.
Here's the dilemna, it's going to cost us $145.50 per day on the regular dining plan for my little family and just can't see us spending that much money normally. We are going with another family who is getting the dining plan and we said even if we didn't opt for the dining plan, we'll still eat everywhere with them. I'm sure on the days we're doing character dining then we might be ahead but normally, I don't see that being the case?? I think we're booked for 3 character meals.
I would so love to have your opinon on this. I've truly enjoyed reading all the posts and typically right before bed I take my phone and open up the DIS app and get so excited to read everything. I have saved so much money thanks to all of you from learning about booking points to getting tickets through the YES program. I'm so appreciative of this site and hope you can help me with this last thing..
So, what do you guys think for us?? Dining plan YAY or NAY and why??
Thank you!!!
