Do we have any idea when a new special offer will be up?

[TravelingCircus]

I wanted to go so badly last year. WE booked a package twice and had to cancel both time because of a lay off and a major car accident. But so far this year the deals have been not great. We are traveling with five children (one is an infant) and the 30% off room only is just not nearly as good as either deal we had last year. Do we have any idea when the special offer might change? We can't afford to go without a better deal.

I don't know but I am running out of hope, too. We will be staying offsite if something doesn't come along soon.

when do you plan on going? I hear that September's Free dining probably won't be up until the end of March/April.

Actually they had a number of Free Dining dates for January - March already this year, they had to be booked by last December. We also have 5 kids and free dining is the biggest discount we can get. The August/September free dining dates are usuaully announced the end of March or the beginning of April.

Probably not before Feb. 28....it's when the current room only promo expires

If this is the case and I were to book a trip in September now would I be able to change it to the free dining once it's up - or do I need to wait until the deal is actually up?

No, you can call when the discount is released and have them apply it to your existing reservation. Here is a link to the post here on the Disboards that has all the free dining info about booking, applying FD to an existing reservation, etc:
