I'm pretty sure we can do this but I want to check.


We are a family of 4 all on adult plan.
My youngest hardly eats anything.
Two nights we want to go to Kona and Wave for dinner.
Can I use 3 ts meals and pay for 1 kids meal out oop.

Then later in the week use those 2 TS I saved and put it towards a character meal along with paying for 2 adult TS? Since it is buffett I need to get all adult meals so this is a better value.

Yes. We do this a lot. Although we also share meals so I usually don't have to pay OOP for extra credits. E.g. In your case, I might do 2 TS meals and 1-2 child TS OOP for both those meals and then have all 4 TS credits available for the buffet.

Come to think of it, u might be best doing 2 TS + 1 child TS OOP + 1 adult TS (or app) OOP at both those places if all of u like separate meals. Since the adult buffet is highly likely to cost more regardless. I wouldn't choose to pay for a character buffet OOP.

That's a good idea.

I love juggling credits to have extra meals - I run a crazy spreadsheet that I update during the vacay so I can make sure I have enough for all the meals we want. One trip, we stayed 12 nights and had 14 TS meals...including 2 signatures. I was feeling splurgy so we were prepared to supplement OOP - we didn't want to feel restricted by sharing. OMG - we felt we ate like kings and the only OOP I did was one time when we had the Beaches n Cream Kitchen Sink for lunch (since its not available on the DDP). Of course, longer trips and having one child in particular who was (and is still) a light eater helped with this.
