Cheshiregirl, someone on DIS just a few days ago had checked the current prices for all the character meals (I can't recall who it was), and at this moment in time, all the meals were now showing to be the same price as Goofy's. Goofy's, of course, is currently charging its off-peak season rates, and they MAY not raise them back up to peak season rates in summer, depending on how the economy goes (that is what Disneyland Dining told me - they are not sure how they will handle the usual price increase if the economy gets worse this year), but from what the DISboard member found the other day, all the character meals are currently the same price. That is actually how it used to be - quite a long while ago, the character meals were the same price as Goofy's - but Goofy's jumped ahead of the pack, probably because the buffet is bigger and because it has characters for breakfast and dinner.
In any case, I just wanted to point that out that at the moment, the other character meals are apparently not cheaper than Goofy's. They probably raised in price because they got more popular when people who didn't want to pay Goofy's rates defected to other character meals!!! It is a vicious cycle!!
I just called to do some detective work of my own, as I had read that thread as well and the OP could not remember where they had gotten that information from.
Goofy's is currently $32.21 per adult and L&S is currently $27.52 per adult, so it is only a $5 difference right now. The last time we ate at L&S was Sept. and the price was $23 and change at that point in time. But, I stick by what I originally said in terms of for us being better interaction and food that was every bit as good as Goofy's for a significantly cheaper price, as when you are a group of 9 such as the OP, $5 a head adds up pretty quickly!
