Here are our meal plans -- will Connections be worth it for us?

[Belle0101]

I'll list our PS first --
Breakfast at Kona Cafe for 4 adults and 2 children
Breakfast at Hollywood and Vine for 4 adults and 2 children
Supper at Liberty Tree Tavern (add-on for MVMCP) for 4 adults
and 2 children
Grand Floridian Tea for 1 adult and 2 children
CRT breakfast for 1 adult and 2 children
Ice Cream Social for 4 adults and 2 children
Norway Princess Breakfast for 1 adult and 2 children
Garden Grill (CP package) for 4 adults and 2 children

The rest of our meals --
Breakfast -- the plan is to eat in the vacation home before we go to the parks
Lunch -- counter service in the parks
Supper -- counter service in the parks

Unless I missed it, I can't find on Connections which establisments you can use them at without signing up first. I know it's only $1.00 but I've done "free trial periods" before and I've always had a terrible time trying to cancel.

Almost forgot, 2 of the adults are big eaters. I dont' think it would be a problem at all for them to each eat 2 combo type meals (burger, fries & drink).

Thanks for your opinions!!

Belle0101,
You could use Connections vouchers for the following:
Breakfast at Kona Cafe
Breakfast at Hollywood and Vine
Norway Princess Breakfast (this new breakfast was not yet listed on the voucher, but they took it when we went in Aug)


You could use the Quick and Casual Vouchers for counter service lunches and dinners

I would say the vouchers are probably ideal for big eaters. The Q & C's include 1 drink, 1 entree and 1 side (if not already included in the entree ie if fries come with the entree, it would count as a side) and 1 dessert.
The only thing I would caution is that you have to watch carefully so that you at least break even....

You could also use one for the adult at CRT. It recently went up to $19.99 before tax and tip, so that one (voucher is $17.50 WITH tax and tip) is definitely a good deal.

Have you been to www.wdwig.com? Deb wills has all the menu's posted under the dining portion of her site and if you go to www.mousesavers.com there is info there under connections (you have to go into the meals portion) as far as exactly what places take what vouchers. Takes a lot of clicking back and forth, but you really can figure out exactly how useful the vouchers will be for you. (Find the restaurant on mousesavers, click over to Deb's site and read the menu and prices...back and forth, back and forth...)
