Free Dining?!? When Does It Usually Start? Any News On This Year?

If it is offered then my family of 6 will be going this year instead of next. This is a big savings for us? Or is it?

Last year our family of 4 ate $1715.00 worth of food. For FREE!!!!

That is big savings!

We ate like royalty. Ate whatever we wanted without worrying about the cost. Ate in the castle, ate buffets, ate at expensive places, and never worried about what we ordered. It was so fun. DD11 was an 'adult' so she got huge portions too, and we shared some meals.
It is definately a money saver!!

It would be a huge savings! We went on an all girls trip last year and saved $1064 just on food. It was enough food for all of us and many of the times we split meals because of the size. I am sure that you would end up doing the same on some days. If you split meals you can use those credits for a special 2 credit meal or just have extra meals.

Either which way, food paid for by the Big Mouse himself is such a great incentive!

I believe AAA offered the Dining Plan, as well as Disney. It isn't clear how that affected the discount you were offered though AAA though. You could NOT get the AAA discount through Disney and get free dining.

There were no blackout periods.

LAST YEAR i GOT BOTH!

yes you can use it Labor Day weekend. That is when we went last year and after Monday the parks were very nice and uncrowded. i like your name Kayleebug, as my DD is named Kaylee, which is the cutest name IMO.

Thanks! My DD's name is Kaylee, too. I call her Kayleebug sometimes... that's where my user name came from.
