Anyone do MVMCP twice in a week?

I already bought MVMCP tickets for the second night of our trip, but I'm having second thoughts now. I know I can't change nights, but I may add a second night. Has anyone done two nights in one week? Any advice or comments?

I'll try to keep this short, but basically, my DBro and girlfriend are joining us for the second half of our trip. There are parties on two of those days, and the third day (when I thought we'd do MK) is the parade taping, so I think we should avoid it. That means they won't get a chance to see Spectro or Wishes at all. They're doing a "budget trip" and don't want to pay for MVMCP tickets, but I'm considering offering to buy them as X-mas presents. I guess the other option would be to add the park hopper option (which is about the same price as the party tix), do another park on our last day, then hop to MK just for the parade and fireworks.

I haven't done it (yet). But have bought tickets for two nights of MNSSHP - 1 and 6 October. The night we did MVMCP, we did not get to see everything. Probably mainly because we had smaller kids with us. So I thought this time with the Halloween party, I'm going to see everything. Hence the two nights. When I asked the question, there were a lot of people out there that were doing it.
 
Last year, I did MNSSHP twice in one with with DS3 and DS6. We went on Tuesday and Thursday night. I planned to go twice because my kids were young and I knew that we couldn't get everything done in one night - they'd just be too tired to stay up much past 9:30 or 10pm if I really pushed it.

My Oct trip was to specifically come for MNSSHP and experience all that was halloween. So yes, I paid for 2 nights of special tickets Yes, this is an expensive strategy. But I knew we were not coming back for halloween for a long time -- so I was going to do it up right the first time.

I think you need to look at your schedule, your priorities and your budget.

Thanks for simplifying it. This works well with my schedule. It would be nice to take it easy, without feeling like we have to see/do everything in one night, especially since I have 2 DDs (6 and 4), so we're probably not going to last past 10 or 11 at the latest. Budget is actually the least of my concerns at this point. I've already got the money saved, and I want to do things "right," because we probably won't be back for a few years. I think in the long run, we'd probably regret NOT going a second time with my brother.
