It's not necessarily about being gluttons and gaining 10 pounds...If you eat at almost ALL the character meals and one Signature restaurant with small kids (as the price is more reasonable), the DXDDP would pay for itself and SAVE you money. Do we eat all the food? No! Do we usually have CS credits left? Yes! Will I care that I'm wasting food? No, because it financially a good deal for families like mine who enjoy the TS for a break and as a great opportunity to see characters without standing in long lines at the parks.
And you can get the DDP with the AAA discount and NOT pay rack rate. You must book directly with AAA, however, to get both.
We felt the same way. My DGD loves the character meals and while she is young we will continue to add them on. We also like some of the signature dining Restaurants and the dinner shows so we add them on as well. We are not gluttons but we do enjoy the characters and we enjoy good meals and we schedule them into our plans. We know that there will come a day when we can't round up our family for a vacation together so we are taking advantage while we can. We have never used all of our CS credits, yet we have paid for meals OOP. We don't feel that we wasted money, the experiences we enjoyed were priceless to us.
