Second, Are the vouchers honored at all the counter service places or what?
Can they be used at Beaches and Cream. Diffently want to take my two teenagers daughters there. They want us to do the "Everything but the Kitchen Sink".
Can they be used at Beaches and Cream?
I'm looking for advice. Time is running out.
That's another question, Is it possibe to get the vouchers in time for our trip.
Where staying off site, so we'll have four days at the parks, PH, for that.
Going to A Dinner theater one night,
so really all we need is to do is cover the park days.
Is Quick and Casual our answer?
Here are some answers to your questions:
1. It depends on what you order. Some meals and restaurants are a better deal than others. Check the menus on
www.wdwig.com to get an idea of where the great deals are.
2. Here is a link to a thread about which restaurants accept the vouchers. I think that the majority of the CS places are included in the program.
Places to use Connections Vouchers
3. They can be used at Beaches & Cream. You usually have to use two vouchers in order to get a Kitchen Sink. The idea is better than the reality. IMO, the Kitchen Sink is truly disgusting. Of course, I pack carrot and celery sticks in my kid's school lunches
. Some of the other desserts are really yummy!
4. 18 days should be plenty of time to get your vouchers. I've never waited longer than 5 days (including weekends) for my orders. Others have reported having problems receiving vouchers though. I can only tell you that none of the 7-8 orders I've placed have had errors.
5. Only you can answer the question of whether Q&C is the answer for you and your family. Think about what you usually order. If it ordinarily would cost you less, don't go with the vouchers. We get enough to cover some of our meals, but not all of them. We want to make allowances for the times when we're not really that hungry. On occassion, we've even split a single voucher between the 4 of us, when we haven't been that hungry. An example of this would be:
- Chicken fingers (order ala carte w/out the fries - not on the menu, but you can do it)
- Nachos (side)
- Brownie (they're HUGE! We split it in 4, and everyone still gets a generous amount)
- bottled water (we usually use our refillable mugs for extra drinks).
Since we're not always huge dessert eaters, we've also used the vouchers at the food courts, and have gotten danishes and mixed fruit for our desserts. We take these back to the room, and enjoy them for breakfast the next day - it's kind of like getting two meals for one
.
Have fun on your trip!
