DDP credit calculations???

[rbork]

a little background here...
going to disney for 8 nights.
3 adults*and 1 child
have DDP deluxe
I get a TOTAL of 24*adult CS and 8 Child CS
and 24*adult TS and 8 Child TS
plus 32 snack credits for our entire stay of 8 nights.

My question is this: Can I specifically use 4 adult CS during one lunch and remind the CM to use 4 adult CS?

and could I use for example 3 adult CS and 2 child CS during one lunch order?

*The way it works out is I will have 3 adult CS left and 1 child CS left by the end of the eight days because we won't be using the CS on our arvl day.

Thanks for any input.
I appreciate these boards, they have given me valuable info about DDP that I'd otherwise would be lost.

Technically, no. You should only be allowed to use a maximum of 3 adult credits at any one time. That said, it will likely depend on the CM involved as to how the policy is or isn't enforced.

and could I use for example 3 adult CS and 2 child CS during one lunch order?

Again, this is against policy (max of 1 child's meal at a time based on your party), but your mileage may vary.

okay. so what to do w/ left over credits???
I remember reading something about using a bunch of snack credits at the end if you have them left over. Or only ordering 2 adult CS at one time if your just not hungry. Trying to figure out how to use the left over CS's???

I'm confused. You say you have the Deluxe dining plan but you are talking about your credits like it is the regular dining plan.

Which do you have?

If you have the Deluxe DDP then you have a total of
72 total adult CS/TS credits (your choice how you use them but no more than 3 credits removed for CS or reg TS or 6 TS credits for signature can be removed at any one time)
24 Child meal credits (total over course of the trip)to be used as you like for TS/CS with max of one meal being purchsed at a time or in the case of a signature dining 2.

You should have 80 snack credits total
Child credits for child's meals, adult credits for adult meals.

Snacks no one should care how they are used or in what combination.

If you have the regular DDP then your numbers would be 24 CS, 24 TS and 24 snacks, and 8-8-8 for the child.

clarification: I have the DDP that you get 1 TS, 1 CS and 1Snack per day

my bad, I said DDP deluxe in the OP.
It is "Magic your way plus dining"

Sounds like I need to find the "policy" for uses for the credits.
Do you all know where I might find the rules?

TIA

The extra CS credits can be used at your resort easily. You can get food to take on your trip home.

I cashed in all of our extra credits and took a box of Divvies Chocolate Chip Cookies (12 snack credits), 2 cookies, 2 pieces of fruit and a bunch of Mickey Rice Krispie Heads. I also had a bunch of drinks that I gave to a family that wasn't on the DDP as we were flying home.
