I agree with txvjc - some people that have
free dining will be using it clear into October! For example, the UK res had a free dining offer that was for 8/5 through 9/29/07, so the people who check in on 9/29 (including some who check in for 10 or more nights) will use their free dining into October.
BTW, if you want to get free dining for next year, did you know that you can go ahead and book free dining for next year while you'll be there this year?
Here's the info just in case you missed it:
There's a "Bounceback" offer going on right now. If you are going to stay at a WDW resort between 8/31-9/28/07 and you want to book ahead for next year to stay between 8/30/08-9/27/08, you can receive Free Dining for that next years stay for booking a package while you are there this year Here's the Bounceback program info from mousesavers:
Bounceback Free Dining Promotion
This offer is available ONLY to guests staying at one of the official Walt Disney World resorts between 8/31/07-9/28/07.
Using a special phone number provided on some resort restaurant receipts (*ext 8844 from your room) or on a flyer provided in some resort rooms, you can book a vacation package for next year, for stays between 8/30/08-9/27/08, at a Walt Disney World resort with theme park tickets and receive the Dining Plan for FREE.
If you don't get the offer on a receipt or a flyer in your room, I recommend asking at the front desk.
There is a 3-night minimum stay requirement. Reservation for 2008 must be made before you check out and no later than September 28 to qualify. A $200 deposit is required at time of reservation.
