Considering a Seasonal Pass

[scoopmorgan]

We will be at US/IoA/Volcano Bay for 5 days total. I just read some articles on how to save $, and I read some intriguing info about Seasonal Passes suggesting We could buy one Seasonal Pass (Yes, the dates are okay.) and potentially save hundreds of $s. I got the impression that besides hotel (we're booked offsite) we could get discounts on food and shopping, too. Is this true? I saw a list on the web site, and it doesn't specifically list many locations. And many of them are restaurants we are not likely to visit. Is there a cohesive list of all applicable discounts/Perks of the AP (seasonal) so I can browse to determine the value for our needs? TIA
