Live report from the Contemporary from the NC B.'s

Hi! Kevin and John---we had fun meeting you and others this past Saturday.


We have 2 cs to use up by midnight and 7 snacks credits left to use before midnight (from our Cornado free dining0. We have 4 drinks from this am's breakfast at the Pepper Market.

Picture tally---almost 800 plus...it would had been more if it was not so rainy last week.

p.s. Our thoughts are with those affected by the weather (Gustav and the previous storms).

enjoy your last day! Just go OD on Dole Whips -- they use snack credits, don't they?

We went to see WL and had lunch at Whispering Cayon. There is a special deal going on at the gift shop---spend $40 and pay $10 (I think) for a Halloween tote. I didn't buy anything yet---the day is still young. I think we will get Dole Whip floats this evening and a couple of other treats.

This past Thursday we were in the same boat. We were checking out of All Star Sports and went to the end zone at the resort from breakfast and not only had 4 cs left but 8 snack credits as well. We somehow made it all work without wasting anything (thanks in part to the wonderfully helpful cast member at the check out register) and when added all up for the four days we were on the DDP, we would have spent $607.38 But only ended up spending $80 total in tips. Despite what is said about the DDP, I think it was a great deal and would do it again in it's current form.

Enjoy today, and if you get a chance, say AARRGG to Jack Sparrow for me

WOW WOW Wow-ee wow wow wow. You did a GREAT job! Did you total it yourself, or do they keep track for you? I can't imagine what we'll save... but I'm excited --- it'll be our first time on the DDP.

when me and DBF went in may we ended up paying for our meals in cash and only spent about $350 ish that included breakfast lunch and dinner for 7 days!!!


But I've been told by several people that I need to eat more!?? but still it was usually two meals!

glad to hear you have numerous photos hope to see some!!!

We had a blast today---arrived in MK at 5pm...20 minutes to no waits on most rides. We caught half of Spectromagic. We had rootbeer floats instead of Dole whip floats, had smoothies from the place near star Traders, powerade, vitamin water, and a rice krispie mickey to polish off the snack credits. We bought some key chains for a couple of our neighbor kids who we hired to water our plants/trash day.

I think we average between $80-100 a day so free dining was nice. We were fortunate in being able to change half of our adrs to same day and walk-ins. We did 2 out of pocket meals---Beaches and Cream and WCC. There was filet mignon at Teppan Edo (last Saturday). Most places have strip or skirt steaks.
