Could I get a bit of advice on what everyone orders besides water? I see the free delivery charge is now at 200.00....we are on the dinning plan-not up to ordering quite that much! Anyone know the delivery charge or does it vary?
Thanks!!!!

They have a $40 minimum order for food/drink items. On that, it is a $12 delivery charge. I believe it's $12 for anything up to $200, at which point delivery is free.

We ordered from Garden Grocer in August and were very happy with the service. I think we purchased about $50-$60 worth of items, had the $12 delivery charge, and also pre-tipped $10. Everything was exactly as promised.

We ordered milk, cereal, muffins, yogurt, soda pop, chips, crackers, and cheese. We will use Garden Grocer in the future. They have earned my business.

In addition to food and drinks, I ordered stuff to leave in my then-new Owner's Locker, like Ziploc bags and plastic wrap.

I got water, pop, poptarts and fruit bars, toothpaste and cookies. Maybe a couple other things, but at that point I were just trying to make the $40 minimum. During that trip, I had the dining plan and typically was eating my QS credit for breakfast and TS for dinner, and getting a snack midday. I can be prone to low blood sugars, so I definitely needed stuff in the room in case of this. I also stayed at Pop Century with a dorm size fridge.

For my upcoming trip, I'm staying with someone who's not a big breakfast eater so I'm working things a bit different. We're staying at a one bedroom at OKW so full kitchen this time. We're planning on getting more things like bagels and bread, milk and juice and cereal, so that we can have a small breakfast in the room then use our QS credit for lunch and TS for dinner.

arguh! i lost my entire almost done post! wahhhhhaaaa! lol


we travel with the kids and get the 1 ts/1qs ddp, so we get mainly breaky items to eat in the toom. that way we get up when we want and the kids can go at their own pace and were not waiting in lines for food. we get a big pack of water, plus 2 quarts of water to refill the small bottles with/drink in the room. we also get milk, cereal for the kids, poptarts, nutrigrain bars, snacks for dad and i and pop for dad. it usually adds up to 60-70 dollars for us.

i also bring a few snacks from home, ds is fussy over the fruit snacks he eats and i bring a 24 pack of granola bars with us to last the flights and time in the parks.
