Is this old news? Free Dining Package thru 12/20

[pixie2416]

I just got the following email from Disney:

4-Night/5-Day package
at select Disney Value Resorts
including Theme Park tickets
and FREE DINING, just
$63*
a day, per person based on a family of 4 .
For stays most nights 9/28/08-10/11/08,
11/9/08-11/22/08 and 12/14/08-12/20/08 in a standard room.

I have an annual pass, so this isn't something I would book. But early November is such a great time to go!

I guess the economic slowdown is starting to hit Disney too.

It's new to me, too. We're DVC and have APs and wouldn't likely book it either, but that looks like a pretty good deal! And a great time to go.

Ive def seen it before but I think I got the same email Awhile back...Sadly we are going when its not offered. If you have been on some of the recent threads about discount codes people have broke down the money and found that its cheaper to book with a code than book through free dinning.

It's not old news yet, but unfortunately it's news that doesn't affect most people. It's one of those "pin" offers that not everyone gets, and you have to have been selected in order to use the offer.

I was lucky enough to have gotten this email pin! I'd gotten some before that didn't apply to our trip, so imagine my excitement when I saw the dates We're going Dec 14-18. I called my AAA agent as soon as possible the next day, and with free dining and the AAA discount, we ended up with an amazing deal!

 

[CanadianGuy]

Moving this over to the code and rates board.. it's a best fit there

 

[retire2disney]

Princess_K we to got the pin yesterday and already had reservations for Dec 14-20th and we were able to call last evening and get the discount!! We saved 531 more dollars~~ Right now I feel like Disney is trying to pay us to come!!

 

[julezdisney]

I got that too. But I'm already booked offsite (through Priceline-nonrefundable) & everything and the free dining and rates would only be applicable during the first 2 nights of our trip. Oh well.

I think this is def. a sign of things to come- economy is def. showing signs of slowing if Disney is offering this now!

That is the offer i received the other day. Wish i could go. I can afford it no problem, but started new job this year and cannot have off till may next year.

I'm wondering if this pin is more widespread than some, I got it on all 3 of my e-mail addresses within hours of each other.

I am thinking it must be. My friend told me yesterday she got one, another friend got one today and then I got it today as well!!!!!

I wish! Between my mom's 2 email addresses and my 3, we have not received this pin code and I would practically give my right arm for such a deal for our upcoming trip, because I couldn't get the general code last month (Poly was all sold out).

Pixie dust, where are you?!?!

 

[tripplanner2]

I have not gotten one and I have gotten other codes in the past. I wish we had a clue as to how they were distributed.

 

[burberryplaid]

I got the PIN CODE today!

I don't think I can use it..so wish I could! I'm going to go buy some scratch tickets and hope for some money!

Hey Shyjade, do you think their sending them out alphbetically? Our last name starts with an "S". Maybe they haven't gotten to the "S's" yet?

I know. I'm grasping at staws.

Why, oh, why, can't Disney just send me this free dining pin code. I have have requested planning DVDs through all three of my email accounts and still nothing!!!

 

[paula70]

I haven't done the research yet but is this bascially just free dining? Or is it a discounted room price as well? Anyone price it out yet?

It certainly peaked my interest! Free dining for 8 nights would save us almost $1,00!

I'm going to go to the WDW website now!

 

[shyjade]

Hey Shyjade, do you think their sending them out alphbetically? Our last name starts with an "S". Maybe they haven't gotten to the "S's" yet?

My last name actually starts with a "K" so if I'm getting one, it should be soon!

 

[shyjade]

I'm going to go to the WDW website now!

You won't find anything on the website (yeah, I checked, "just in case" ) because it's a PIN CODE offer only, and not available to the general public.

 

[My2Angels]

What if you are leaving on Dec 11th? My best friend is going 11th-18th. If she had the PIN code, could she use it for days 14-18?? Or does it have to be exact dates?

I was actually going to the website to check the regular price of this package to see where the savings lie! It appears to me that there is also some room savings as well as the free dining.

It quoted me $1465.86 for the same package (value, 4nt/5day base tix) as the pin code. The price on the code was $1,253!

I may just have to call...
