Am I missing anything?

Am hoping I haven't missed anything, and would appreciate any feedback...bucks are bucks these days!!!

We are currently booked at POFQ for 2 nites Jun 24-26, and have shifted to the AP discount rate, which saved us $90.

Then we move to VWL from June 26-July 1, on points.

We have the DP for the duration of the trip. I have asked WDW reservations to check on a free dining pin numerous times...nada, zip. (SUCH a bummer...I feel like once you are in as a DVC member, your days of PIN codes are over!!!)

Are there any other discounts I am missing? Can anyone tell me about Tables in Wonderland...not familiar with it, but assume that there is a fee and that it wouldn't be usable with the Dining Plan anyway...

Advice appreciated!! Many thanks!
 
I think I might be misunderstanding your post. Your 2 night reservation would not qualify for the minimum number of nights even if free dining came out. And like you said, you will be ineligible for free dining while staying on points.
I think you have done the best you can for discounts.

However, on the 2 night reservation, you would have had to purchase tickets to get the dining plan (to make it a package). I personally would drop the DP and tickets on the 2 nights and pay OOP. The 2 night ticket cost negates any savings since you are an AP holder already.
 
Actually, we have passholder + dining for our POFQ dates and the VWL dates. We did not have to purchase extra park tickets.

Can I add TIW at any time while I am a passholder?

I believe so. But you can't use TIW with DDP. I'm an AP holder but I always do the AP + DDP, when the AP discounts come out. I think TIW costs $75 for a year. I forget what the break even point is for it. Mostly TS, and drinks too.
Not many CS on TIW.

Maybe i should have gotten TIW this year, because we had a 7 night trip in Jan, and a 12 night trip coming up. But I have free dining at POR, for our 7 nights this summer, which I think will be cheaper then AP + DDP when the AP discount comes out (I'll just save the 2 day park ticket for another time) I will get the AP + DDP for the BC portion of out trip- 5 nights. So don't know what would have saved me more?
I think you need to be a rocket scientist to figure it out. Disney math :eek:
