How close is "close enough"?

[Angie789]

I just finished making all of our ADRs for the 2nd week of December, and overall I am very happy. We are only making 4 of them, and I got 1 at the exact time I wanted, 1 15 minutes away, 1 20 minutes away and 1 25 minutes away from my target time. I have already gone into "stalking the dining site" mode to move the ressies closer to our target times, but my DH thinks I'm insane and the ADRs we have are good enough. What do you think? Do you keep trying for a "perfect" time, even if it is only 15 minutes away from what you already have?

I keep checking for better times too. I keep seeing 5 minute differences, but at 15 I may make the switch. Half an hour is more the kind of change I'd look for to make it worthwhile. Have fun with it & good luck!!!

I don't check unless it's more than 45 minutes or so off. I try to keep my kids as on-schedule as possible, but considering we've been seated 20 min early once and almost an hour late a couple of times, those 20 minutes or so really aren't going to make any difference. You don't really have any control over it. As close as you are, I wouldn't bother. However, as a fellow plan-aholic, I do understand the urge.

I always keep checking mainly because I usually have a reason why I wanted THAT time or, I just become obsessed with getting exactly what I want. Sometimes I get it and sometimes I don't.

I usually don't try to change unless it's 30 minutes or more from the time I wanted, and even then sometimes I just leave it as is .

I'm usually happy to be within 15-30 minutes of my desired time.

As long as they weren't 4:30pm or after 8pm I didn't care. My family usually eat around 6 but a little earlier or later won't ruin our day and we don't have plans for after dinner but are playing it by ear.
