Dining Plan

Better yet, this is how I plan to do it:
Buy Disney GCs at Target using my RedCard before I leave (estimating the amount I will spend on food). That's a 5% discount right there.
Then, purchase the TiW card (using my DVC membership to get it for $100 and then paying with GCs to get it for only $95). This will get me a 20% discount on almost all TS meals and some CS locations. Charge back to the room.
Pay for all room charges using the GCs.
I have to sit down and do some real math but it would look something like this:
For easier math, let's say that a meal cost $100 before tax.
With the TiW, the meal costs $80 + $5.20 in tax + $18 tip (18% of the original pre-tax price). Total cost = $103.20
Pay with GCs that were at a 5% discount. Real OOP cost = $98.04
Compare that to the cost for the same meal without the TiW or discounted GCs.
Cost of meal ($100) + tax ($6.50) + tip ($18) = $124.50

Even if you can't get or don't need a TiW card, you can still shave 5% off the cost of all of your food - even Mickey bars and Dole Whips! - by just using the GCs bought with the Target discount. And you don't even need to stay onsite to do it.

Forgot about the discount with target card as
That is on my list of to do things. Extra savings makes it that much sweeter
