2 questions about the "Meal Deal"

[IMGONNABE40!]

When this first came out back in August, diners had to pay the tax on each individual meal when they ordered. Is this no longer the case? Also, if I get a one park deal and the beverage cup, can I get refills in both parks?
Thanks.

No you won't have to pay tax on your meal.

You can only use the refillable cup at the eating places that have the meal deal. You will have a wrist band. If you buy the meal deal for just one park, the wristband will be different from the two park meal deal, so you won't be able to get refills at the second park as the eating establishements there will be checking your wristband.

Sorry if this has been asked before, but I haven't been over on this "side" of the boards for a while!

Is the Meal Deal going to be permanent now? We won't be visiting for a while and it would be good to know if this will be running all year!

Friends of ours visited last year during the trial period and recommended this to us.

Thanks, phamton. As ever, you are a wealth of information.

I think it will be around awhile but may be revamped in the next few days to be even better.

Even better would be, well, even better! We'll be down for 7 days in July. We may need to give this a try one or two of those days. Sit down meals at City Walk every night would sure add up!
