Connections Vouchers- more reports please

[raelee]

I just purchased 8 Q & C vouchers to use for our upcoming trip to WDW (read about them on mousesavers).

Obviously, we will use them at Beaches and Cream as almost everyone has recommended...

I would love to read some more reports of people's experiences using these, best deals besides B&C.

I am a little worried about the variations people are experiencing.
My little sis' (OK not so little at 30) is flying out to join myself and two sons for Dec trip and this will be her first ever trip to WDW. I offered to pay for meals to make it more affordable and would hate to make her feel uncomfortable by having to argue about voucher use.

So, more experiences, what did you order, best deals, PLEASE!
Thanks-
Steph

what I found helpful was to always ask the cashier what I could get before ordering. Almost everyone in the parks said the same thing (exactly what it said on the coupon), but at beaches they said we could also get frozen drinks. The benefit of asking is that there is no problem after everything is rung up. Everyone was very nice about it.

You should order all the voucher food in one order, then the rest in another. Don't try to combine the orders! Again, I would just say up front that I had 1 coupon & that I also wanted to pay cash for some other things. None of the cashiers were mean or confused.

I'm not sure that any places were great deals, but we always spent more than we had paid.

We liked Columbia Harvest house. I think that was where we had some kind of fried fish that was really good! It was a chicken/fish combo that I split with my 2 year old. We also got apple pie which was great. DH had the drink from the voucher & ordered a sandwich separately. We found that we didn't need 2 drinks & 2 desserts.

At any of the burger places we were able to order the double cheeseburger with bacon (which is extra). We would share the fries & drink, and supplement them with a single burger with a side of carrots. We also drank a lot of (free) ice water, which we like DH loved the toppings bars at cosmic rays & pecos bills.

Hope that helps! It's nice of you to pay for the food for your sister

We liked Peco Bills and Beaches and Cream best. We showed the voucher to the waiter/waitress and most of the time they were helpful, no problems.

raelea,

I would do search on Connections Vouchers on this board to get a WEALTH of information on people's experiences with them. There has been literally HUNDREDS of posts pertaining to Connections in the past year.

Good Luck!
