Food Discounts with Premier Annual?

[Duckkie]

Hi all! I'm in the process of finishing my plans for my last minute, surprise trip for my daughters 16th Birthday and my sons Tech School Graduation.

Both my daughter and I have Premier Annual Passes (CA/FL ones). In CA we can use these passes for 20% off merchandise and 15% all food, both TS and CS locations.

I know at WDW they have the Tables in Wonderland card for passholders and FL residents. Does this mean I have no discount on food with my Premier pass and would have to buy a TIW card for the 20% discount (plus mandatory 18% gratuity) If yes, is the TIW card valid at CS locations too or just TS locations and on booze. TIW good at kiosks as well? Example: tea cart in China or Kaki Gori stand in Japan.

Thanks in advance for your help I know I could do the research on this myself but I figured someone on here would know the answer for sure and it would be faster than me digging through sites looking for that info.

Especially since we leave two weeks from NOW! and I have less than half of what I need done, done!

There are a few restaurants--mostly at Epcot, some resorts and at DTD--where AP holders get some kind of discount; although generally it is limited to lunch. You can see the list down on the AP info page of the DIS.

Almost every TS restaurant accepts TiW (there are a few blackout dates, like Thanksgiving Day), but the only CS locations that do are the food courts at the value resorts that don't have TS locations. Kiosks do not accept TiW. Info on the TiW card and locations is here.

Thanks for the quick response Jestocost!

Now to just figure out if I can justify a $75 TIW purchase for one 6 day trip as I won't be back until Oct '12. Need to go back to the menus to see if we will spend more than $375 in TS meals.

The TIW is valid for up to 13 months. If you buy the TIW card in September, it will be valid until Oct 31, 2012. And even if you don't have an AP during your Oct trip you'll still be able to use the TIW card.

Really? Oh, that is awesome! I did not know that! That changes the situation a bit. Thank you! Thank you!

I would also add that the TiW card is good for up to 10 people in your party. So if it's the 3 of you, I think you can easily spend $375 on TS meals in 6 days. And like others said, it's good for over a year. I highly recommend it!
