Better deal to book with AAA and dining or just go room only with AP?

Bottom line:

Is it better to book a package with AAA and get dining (discounted) or is better to take a $99/night stay at POR with an annual pass?

I am ready to book this vacation! (February 2006) and be done with it!!!!!!!!!!

Do I really, really, really want the dining? Yes. *But* I'm not willing to pay $165/ day for it. ($100 charge/day plus missing out on a $65 discount on the hotel.) We probably will eat (1) table service and (1) counter service each day, but I can't imagine we'd spend more than $165/day and we're leaving the parks one day.

BTW, I have not bought AAA membership or the AP yet.

HHHHHHHHHHEEEEELLLLLLLLPPPPP!

BTW, called the local AAA and the package was MORE expensive than what I could have booked. Are there any AAA WDW specialists?

Nevermind, I have a call into AAA Orlando.

For anyone needing the number:
(407) 894-3333

So far, I can see that AAA would be a better deal... but I can't see if the deal they have on their website is for a hotel that would fit my family of five. Heaven help us when we decide to take all five kiddos.
