Has Anybody Ever...?

[Mom of 2 Wife of 1]

...Used two credits for one individual at a (1) TS restaurant and is it even allowed? In other words, if one of the people in your party was hungry enough, rather than just using (1) credit on the DxDP to get an app, entree and dessert, they wanted to get two of each and use (2) credits, can this be done, and has anybody ever done it?

I've done as much research as possible, and I know you could eat at two different TS places for the breakfast, lunch and dinner hours. So I'm wondering if you could double up at a single place. Anyone?

I don't see why not.....

Although your question seems like a no-brainer, you might actually have a problem doing it.

The computer systems are supposedly set up so that you can't purchase more meals than you have participants in DDP. So if you had 2A/2C, you'd only be able to purchase two adult meals at a particular dining session...not two for one person and one for the other adult.

The obvious purpose of this "feature" is to prevent DDP participants from treating Aunt Gertie who is staying offsite and not paying a penny for either Disney lodging or DDP...a strategy which has never been allowed by DDP.

Overiding that system is supposedly punishable by termination.

Hopefully, you'd be able to explain to the server (or possibly a manager) that you are not trying to "work" the system, somebody's just HUNGRY!

But the strict interpretation is NO, that's not allowed.

I suppose that makes sense. If it was all on the same receipt, the server could get in trouble for going along with it. I guess the only way to override this would be to have separate checks, literally, two for one person, but that too may be asking for trouble.
