What are the chances of the free dining promo being extended into October (or November, for that matter)? Does anyone know if this happens a lot?

Every year for the last 4 years. And it's not really an "extenstion." There is a separate offer that is released for October - December dates and that won't be until mid-summer, probably July, when those dates are released for the general public.
You can keep your ADRS. Your ADRS are not tied to your reservation and have nothing to do with codes or discounts that you add to a reservation. When a discount/code comes out you simply call and have Disney add the code to your existing reservation and they will credit you the discount. Your resort reservation doesn't change.If I was to book my ADR's for my October trip and then Free dining was offered for that time, would I be able to keep my ADR's or would I have to rebook them b/c of the dining plan?

No, that's not true. Half the people on the Free Dining threads have upgraded from quick service to the regular dining plan or the deluxe dining plan.I know in the past, if you were staying at a Value resort with Quick Service Dining, and you wanted the Plus Dining, you could pay to upgrade. I have heard rumors that they no longer allow this, does anyone know if this is the case?
Thanks!

That is not always the case. If someone is booked through AAA or any TA service, they need to make contact with that agency and make sure they are aware of the free dining promo and dates and that they will call and have the code added to your reservation. I've read enought free dining threads on there and other Disney planning sites and blogs to know that not all TA's, AAA or otherwise, even know what free dining is or how it works.If you've booked your package through AAA, they automatically adjust your reservation to include the free dining. If you booked through Disney, you'll have to call them to make the change.

Does anyone happen to remember what weeks of October and November were blacked out for free dining last year? Were the middle 2 weeks of October blacked out? What about Jersey Week in November?
Thanks, I checked Mousesavers, but they don't tell you the blacked out dates!
