Everything You Ever Wanted to Know About Meal Vouchers

[caribear]

Thanks, momloveson!! What a great review!! Thanks for taking the time to type out all of the info regarding your voucher experience

Thanks for your detailed message. Great information, I think I am convinced to get a few vouchers for our June trip. Hope when the vouchers for that time period are available someone on these boards lets me know.

Thanks.. I saw that list but thought that since it was posted originally 2 years ago there would be changes and wanted the most current. If this is the most current, then that is what I will use to determine if getting vouchers is worth it or not for us.

Kelly, if you look at the bottom of the first few posts, you'll see that the information in those posts was updated this year and is current.

Disregard. Total mental lapse.

Remind me never to schedule a Disney trip for 12/18 again. Too much stress to get ready for vacation AND Christmas all at once!

We had 10 Q/C vouchers and 2 VKL for one adult one 10 year old boy. for 7 days days. The vkl's were used at RFC and the waiters couldn't wait to tell us how to maximize their use .

We used 4 of the QC vouchers at our resort, POFQ - a decent deal. It was nice just to take it back to our room to relax.We asked if we could get Beignets for dessert once and they allowed us 6. The rest of the vouchers were tasting oour way around WDW - real neat way to try new stuff at Epcot.


I hope they are around the next time we go!

I checked out Hotwire Savings Club but because I am not a member yet I think that I could not view any information about the vouchers. Can someone who is a member tell me if they are offering vouchers that won't expire for the month of June yet? I don't want to have to sign up to early and I would really appreciate any help that all you can provide. Thanks

I just ordered some Q&C vouchers last week and they all have an expiration date of May 31, 2005.

Thanks, Robinette.

Great thread! Thanks to everyone who posted!

I just bought 3 vouchers on eBay for a total of $51.50 US including shipping. That comes out to $17.17 each which I know is a stretch on the value, but I wanted to try them out without getting a membership. And yeah, people are bidding $25 and up on these, makes you want to post the url to this thread on eBay to help them out

We're staying at POFQ for Xmas and already have plans to dine at O'hana and the Cape May Cafe, so with that much food 2 out of 4 days, we will probably split the meals for the rest of our stay we get with the vouchers. We're doing the snacks in the room thing, so sharing won't be a problem.

Does anyone have recent experience with the Q&C Vouchers at POFQ or POR? I'm thinking ribs, dessert and a mug (I've read that the vouchers do not exclude mugs) will get the best value at $24+ for two folks to split, otherwise we can probably break even with just paying attention to the menu and maybe making a trip to CS to see if that steak is really that big

 

[momloveson]

You won't be able to get a mug with the voucher unless you've got a newbie CM who doesn't know better. However, if you're careful with the menu, you should still be able to get your money's worth. Ironically we ate at FQ, but this was the one place we didn't use a voucher. If you haven't checked out other restaurants at the resorts, it is a very FUN part of the trip.

POFQ was great. We both loved the quietness of it. My 4 yrs LOVED the pool. We biked over to POR one day to swim at ol man island (we brought our own bikes), but the water was a little too cool for our spoiled bodies. Plus, the layout was just busier...if that makes sense. Enjoy your trip.

Thank you to the people who did this thread because the info is excellent and comprehensive.
I can't believe the markups on EBAY! WOW.
I'm going to Disney on Dec 10 and if anyone has any leftovers they want to sell, I'd be happy to buy them (well a few of them!..only there 3 days!)
PM me OR better yet send a note to my email: GodThompson@aol.com

Thanks!

We used our Q&C Vouchers at POR foodcourt and got the dinner specials (counted as a combo), dessert, and we got chocolate milk to take back to the room (we already had our mugs). We made out, I think my husband got some chicken and rib combo and I got the jambalaya of some sort. Remember the vouchers provide so much food, that it was more than enough to share with dessert and all. We probably could have just gotten away with using one plus a kids meal, but it was our last night and we had 2 left. Hope this helps.

Which are the vouchers that you have to buy for RainForest Cafe?

We would like to have lunch or dinner at this Restaurant by the Animal Kingdom.

It will be 2 adults and 3 children.

Thanks,

Rainforest Cafe requires the VKL ($31 per adult - $17.50? for kids) and the kids can order off the ADULT menu. There is plenty of food for 2 to share these meals -- REALLY!!!!!

The VKL is a bargain at just $12.75 for Kids. They are allowed to order the same as the adult voucher, so this is an absolute bargain. The portions are very big and all the appetizers that we tried were enough for an entrie table to share.

The servers KNOW that you are buying the food for the adults with the vouchers so don't feel odd about doing that. They'll even tell you what to do.

The 2nd time we went to AKL we were smart. We had Husband, Me and 4 year old son. Used only ONE (1) KIDS Voucher. DH also ordered a plate of buffalo wings as an entree and we had PLENTY of food. Well, we also ordered son and DH soft drinks, but the savings were great and we ate like kings.

I'm not sure how old your kids are, but it is a fun place and really just continues the theme of Animal Kingdom. Also, RC at the AK closes early so remember that...if I remember correctly 6:30?... or so because the park closes early. You can do a PS for this place but it can't be done same day.

Have fun. I LOVEEEEEE animal Kingdom.

We are going this weekend and using 1 adult VKL and 1 child VKL for me, DH and DD. I figure that my dh will order the steak/lobster combo which is priced at $39.99, so we are already saving money on a $31 adult voucher right there and that is without the appetizer, drink, and dessert. I would feel a little uncomfortable about using 2 child's VKL's for our family...although that would be an incredible price at $12.75 each.

 

[Bakerone]

I'll try asking again--Has anyone used the kids vouchers on the kids menu with kids over the kid age? I have 3 DD ages 9, 13, 15 and sometimes the older ones eat less then the 9 year old. Or should I get 1 VKL for the 2 older DD?

 

[Bakerone]

Another question I read earlier in the thread-Will they take the Breakfast vouchers on Christmas with the holiday menus??

 

[kutchyone]

I agree, but as well as being uncomfortable I would also be embarrassed by the cheapness. Sooner or later they will crack down on people cheating the system then a good thing will end. I see no problem with two adults or one adult and a child sharing an adult voucher meal but come on folks. Two adults and one child sharing a child voucher? Let’s set a better example for our children. If you don’t have the money for certain locations then you should not be eating there..
