anyone actually book free dining with 30% off OKW or SS

[RadioFanatic]

While I was at WL, I booked the bounceback but couldn't get OKW or SSR yet so I did the pirate room at Caribbean Beach. Well, I switched to OKW b/c I got the 30 % off. So this is the deal for us:

2 adults, one infant (free)
4 nights
one day base ticket
free dining
1 bedroom suite at OKW
$1390.54
I did the normal booking on line and this package would have been $1917.10 without the bounceback deal.

I also asked what the studio price would be for the above and it was $1091.34, only $50 more than what we were paying for the pirate room at CBR. I was also told that SSR would be the same price for the one bedroom and studio for the above parameters.

We're very excited as our DS will be 20 months by then so a separate room will be a must!

Hi guys! I am so sorry I completely forgot to post the info from my BB a week and half ago...things were crazy when I got back from my trip and I am finally catching up!

Here is the info on my BB:

We booked two reservations b/c we are going back with my parents and my brother's family. We booked at SSR and got the FD too for Sept. 12 as check in date.

1 bd studio for me, dh and ds (4)
1day base tix for everyone
Free Dining
8 nights
NO Trip Ins.
TOTAL: $2,088.87
This comes out to around 233.00 per night for the room w/ taxes when you subtract the base tixs.

2 bd villa for parents, brother's family (db,dsil, dnep(5), and dniece(1) )
1 day base tix for everyone (they will upgrade closer to trip)
6 nights (we are staying longer than they are as you can see)
NO Trip Ins.
TOTAL: $2967.57
This comes out to around 430.00 per night for the room w/ taxes when you subtract the base tixs. Since this will be split btwn 2 families, it is not a bad deal at all for 215.00 for family.

2009 Rack rate for SSR studio accd. to mousesavers- $295.00 per night before taxes

2009 Rack rate for SSR 2 bd villa accd. to mousesavers- $545.00 per night before taxes

Best I can figure, it is right at the 30% mark! Hope this helps someone out!

We booked the SSR BB too.

Arrive 9/27/09 for 6 nights w/free dining.

Studio for Me, DH, son and DIL (4 adults)
(A studio works because son and DIL live in Orlando - they'll spend the day and eat meals with us, then go home at night. They don't need tickets.)

1 day base tix. DH and I will upgrade to APs later.

No trip insurance

$1741.68 Total

Room cost w/tax before tix - $233.00 a night. Looks like right at 30% discount. WITH free dining. Sweeeet.

We're DVC, but we want to save points next year for a family trip in 2010. So the BB just fits the bill.
