Up to a challenge? Help me get the most of my $165 Dream Rewards Dollars - The DIS Discussion Forums

DH & I will be in Orlando for 24 hours only and don't plan to visit the parks.
Your challenge....help us get the most out of our $165 Dream Rewards Dollars!

We've stayed on property at POP and POR on prior trips. Been to the parks more times than I can count. We've done the free boat rides and monorail and resort hopping.

I'm thinking of staying offsite (we will have rental car) and perhaps dinner & drinks at Poly and catch the EWP and fireworks.....but I'm interested to know how others would spend this "free" (lol!) money.

Buy something for yourself that you would never have bought.
Splurg on the purchase like a pair of Mickey watches or something Disney from the DTD glass blower.

I have a similar situation. I got a $100 reward certificate from work and chose the Disney option, so I want to spend it frivilously. As stated above, I'll probably buy something I think is cool, but would never buy with my own money. The watches and animation prints at MGM are pretty cool (I know it's HS now, but I like MGM more

). Also, I'll probably spend a lot trying the snacks at World Showcase, namely the Schoolbread in Norway, anything at the French bakery, and something from the sweet shop in Germany (I have a *bit* of a sweet tooth).
