Connections Question

[jenbarnwell]

Is it worhtwhile to buy your tickets at Connections. I have a Connections membership and that seems to be the cheapest place to buy them, but are they legit? Also are the meal vouchers worth it, when you go with 4 adults and one child (really 2 but one will only be one and one will be four, so I figure they could split the kids meals?) Thank you in advance

Have you checked out the thread "stuck" at the top of the forum regarding the meal vouchers? You'll get a lot of good info there.

There are differences of opinion. Some of us think they're the greatest thing since sliced bread while others think they wind up planning their days around where they will eat and that they are inconvenient. We stay off-site, so often visit a park for the morning (snacking around a bit) then go to one of the resorts for lunch. Coronado Springs' Pepper Mill is our favorite and a terrific value using the vouchers.

It all depends on how your family eats and plans their days. One answer does not fit all.

The admission media is legit and it is the least expensive I've see. Depending how your family plans to eat at Disney the vouchers can be a savings. You willneed to do a little research to see if they will work for you. Check menus/pricing and check what you would order. Breakfast vouchers will save you a few $$, Q&C's can go vfrom no savings (even costing a bit more) to savings of over $50.00. It really depends on what you want to order and where you will be ordering it. If you are already a member you will have nothing to lose by trying them out.

The tickets are legit. We purchased one for my mom and it worked with no problem. They actually look exactly like our APs.

We love the meal vouchers and use them every trip. (Not for every meal, but for a few where the savings are worthwhile.) We usually share 2 vouchers for the 4 of us (Me, DH, Dd12 and DD9). The lunch vouchers allowed us to eat at a few sit down places this last trip that we normally wouldn't try because of $ and it was great.

Whether or not it is worth it, depends upon the type of meal voucher you purchase. There are 5 of us (2 adults, 3 kids), and we purchased the Quick & Casual Meal vouchers from Connection for $11. We brought 15 vouchers w/ us and a few times we used one voucher for two kids to eat. In our opinion it was well worth it because we would of spent more than $11 at certain restaurants, and we had the convenience of having our meals pre-paid. Just be very careful w/Connections. We've had double charges on our account a couple of times, and had them reverse the billing.
