Is Grand Californian Concierge really worth it??

[terryfromhawaii]

We will be booking a stay at the GC this coming Thanksgiving which is considered Holiday Season (most expensive time!) and we were considering concierge but don't know if it's really worth it. We just visited WDW and stayed at the GF-Concierge and I don't know WHAT we were thinking but I believe it was about $250-$300 extra per night and we had 3 rooms altogether! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay there but I really don't think the amount of food we ate at the lounge was worth $900/night for 10 people. Anyhoo, would appreciate any comments on the matter. BTW, we've stayed at the GC before (standard, no view room) and were perfectly happy. Thanks in advance!

We stayed on the concierge floor this past Thanksgiving and loved it! To me, the big difference is that DL doesn't have all the dining experiences that WDW has, so we really took advantage of the food in the lounge. We're breakfast eaters, so we went in for a sit down breakfast each day. We would also grab some drinks when we came through. By the 3rd day DD and myself hadn't even spent $50 due to the savings on snacks and meals. We got spoiled and would love to do it again!
