We have more 2 more meals than credits and I need to figure out which are the best ones to pay OOP. I don't want to cancel any of them, we are eating with different friends/ relatives at some of the meals.

For most meals we have 4 adults and 2 Children and 1 under 3. I am not even bringing up Adult vs Child, just which ones would be a better use of a credit for the correct user. We will have extra child entitlements since we have an adult meal planned but that is a seperate issue.

we have planned:
Buffets (adult price/child price):
1900 Dinner 28.99/13.99
Chef Mickey Dinner 27.99/12.99
Chef Mickey Breakfast 18.99/10.99
Crystal Palace Breakfast 18.99/10.99
Crystal Palace Dinner 27.99/12.99
Boma Dinner 25.99/11.99
Norway Breakfast 22.99/12.99

Appy/Entree/Desert:
Le Cellier Dinner (adults only)
Alfredo's Dinner
Japan Dinner
Primetime Dinner
Tony's Dinner

I am thinkng Japan would be a good OOP one since we don't care for their apps and desert pickings are slim.

what do you think? and what other 1 would you pay OOP?
 
We ran into the same problem in September....too many TS's and not enough credits. We paid completely OOP for our Crystal Palace breakfast....about $60 total for 2 adults, child (we have a 2 yr old) including tax and tip. I think paying for one of the buffet breakfasts OOP is your best bet. Save your credits for LeCellier, 50's, etc.
 
I was going to suggest the same thing....pay OOP for breakfasts buffets. They are usually the cheapest choices.
 
thanks for the replies, Breakfast might be the best bet.
We are going to CM on the last morning so if I have credits, I'll use them if not it is a good OOP one.
My other thought is to split 1 or 2 meals gaining us a few credits. And we will have the extra child ones which will cover their meal.

I want to have a plan in place but still be flexable b/c you never know what we will feel like eating.
 

I have the same thing, we are paying Oop for the breakfasts. I know other places will cost me more than $18.99. I am paying for Lilo and Stitch breakfast Oop and maybe the princess breakfast at Akerhaus.
 
I agree, pay OOP for the breakfasts, even if you only have entrees at Tepanyaki they will still be more than the breakfasts.

I was thinking that but since a child's bfast is more than a child's meal at Tep, together it is about the same unless of course we order filet. I'll go with the bfast theory for now. Thanks!
