Annual Pass Block out dates

[OKW Lover]

This is perhaps an odd question but I'll ask anyway. I've got an AP (Sorcerer) that has a few blackout dates. These include the days around Thanksgiving and around Christmas/New Year. I understand I can't use the AP to enter the parks those days. My question is, do my other AP perks still apply? For example, could I park at the TTC just to check out the monorail resorts? Or, if there was an AP discount on merchandise or restaurants would those still be valid outside the parks?
