Signed up for our Disney Dining Experience card on January 3 also. We spent 20 some days at WDW and have paid for the card already. We were e-mailed a temporary card and used it but as of today we have not received our card.
I think our savings were just under $100. We ate at Cape May, Alfredos, Rose & Crown, Wolfgram Puck, Crews Cup Lounge, All Star Cafe and some others. We were at Disney for 28 nights and had some of our kids visit so it worked out for us having the card.
I ordered mine the first week of January also. Finally got it earlier this week. My e-mail letter had said the expiration date would be 01/31/06, but when the card came it had 03/31/06 as the expiration date. On the back of it, it says a Florida ID would be required to use it. I called and was told not to worry about it, they were apparently using up some old cards. I've read on this board where people who ordered them during that first week are getting different expiration dates (01/31/06, 02/28/06, and 3/31/06). Mine winds up being good for 14 months. I guess it depends on who typed the addressograph plate on your card.
Crews Cup Lounge, best kept secret at Y&BC!! We saved $58 on our last trip
in January. Waiting for the card as well for our May, October and December trips. Ordered it on 1/13. I'm hoping the card washes better than the e-mail!! Didn't do well in the BCV laundry room!! Luckily, I had printed 2 copies just in case!!
