Free Dining with DVC??

[DisneyBunny15]

We have a DVC Membership and I want to book for August - so, would free dining be eligible to us?

Sorry, no. Free dining is available only with a full price room plus tickets package reservation.

We are DVC members and doing the free dining. However, this means we bought 2 packages at Pop for our group of 8 and will not be using our DVC points for our August trip. It's a pain to have to buy the one day tickets, esp. since we're all AP holders, but since we are taking 15 yo grandson and a friend, it will help feed the extra mouths. If I only took one trip a year, I would never do this, but since we have 6 trips planned this year, one trip at the values will be OK with us. I will miss the BCV in August, but since this trip if for the grandson and not us, we'll suck it up. We've been hoping for the free dining for mid-August for the past couple of years and luckily we got the pin a few months ago and booked it then. I'm sure we'll find someway to use all of those extra DVC points in 2010!
