DDP vs Out of Pocket Holiday prices??

[twins4disney]

We arrive 12/23, still have not figured out if I should add the DDP to our DVC reservation. I am intrigued by possible paying out of pocket instead and use TIW. My confusion rests on the holiday pricing, I know TIW will not be honored on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day. I am trying to figure out the prices for buffets at Crystal Palace, Cape May, Biergarten, Tusker House and Chef Mickeys. The prices range from 35.99 to 55.99. Is the 55.99 price for Christmas week, this was listed for Crystal Palace.
Any help in figuring this out is appreciated. We are two adults, two kids age
9.

Call WDW-DINE to get the exact pricing. The official website will be no help to you, because it only gives a range and that range applies to ALL fixed-price restaurants, not just the specific one you are looking at. You can check the prices on unofficial websites like allearsnet.com that list the menus, but since prices change, these may or may not be accurate. Holiday pricing applies to fixed price restaurants only and adds an extra $4 per adult and $2 per child to the regular prices at these restaurants.

Thanks, I ended up calling wdw-dine and spoke with a great cast member, who helped me work thru my confusion. Looks like DDP will be the way to go this trip.
