Not trying to be cheap......

[cdsulhoff]

HAHA who am I kidding? Yeah I'm trying to be cheap!!

So lets say me and my mom gos to Prime and get the new sample plate that has every thing for 2 ppl. but she orders it on her TS credit but I share it with her I also share her app and Desert! What is the policy on this? cause I'm figuring that If we do this we will have more TS credits to use wisely! My Mom and I are not big eaters and we would share a salad and entree and be full! but I don't want a CM ready to take me out back and give me the Oklahoma ( for those who watch Housewives of BH)!!! BWAHAHAHAHA

We have shared the chicken dinner (it's 4 pieces/got 2 potatoes) and split dessert and it was plenty for us.
We did pay OOP though and tipped the "cousin" as if she had served 2 dinners.
Don't know anything about the dining plan though because we never use it.

We've shared on the DP before and never had a problem...as long as you aren't trying to do it at a buffet you should be fine. I think sharing is a good way to utilize your credits, especially if you aren't big eaters!

Just so you know, the DDP (1 TS, 1 CS, 1 snack) does NOT include an app. The DxDP (3 TS, 2 snack) does include an app.

The basic dining plan (1 TS, 1 CS, 1 snack per night) has not included an appetizer for adults since 2008, so no appetizer at Prime Time on that plan anymore. Gratuities are no longer included either. In 2008 the deluxe plan (3 meal credits, 2 snacks per night, plus refillable mug) was introduced; this is now the plan that includes an appetizer. It also includes more dining credits and more flexibility. However, it costs significantly more than the basic dining.

Sharing appears to be fine on credits except at buffets, all you can eat family style restaurants, fixed price restaurants and dinner shows.

Note that sharing or splitting plates is fine as long as you're splitting with people all on the same dining plan (i.e., the same room). As noted, this obviously won't work at any location that requires "admission", such as a buffet, dinner show, or other family-style meal -- each guest needs to pay their own "admission", even if they don't eat anything.

Even without an included appetizer, you could certain stretch your credits as you suggest by ordering an appetizer out-of-pocket (OOP). There are also some restaurants that have a "fixed price" 3 course menu that can be used with DDP, so if you want appetizers, there's always that option.

I know the all u can/ care to eat is not for sharing as well as dinner shoes and family style dinners!
I think I have this figure out to were we can get the most for our buck! But let's see if it pans out when we get there! Lol!

Also I don't do buffets!!!! The last time I did a buffet ( here in maryland) I saw a kid do a nose picking for his snacks. And then got his food! Which I felt his mother should of been up there helping him cause he grab a few thing with his hands! That's when I. Got my money back and left!! So I just can't do buffet after that!!!!! So any restaurant that's a buffet I just cross out! Not even on my got to go list!

Another note about the DDP, if you and your mom are sharing a room, then both of you must be on the same package (i.e., either both of you or neither of you are on the dining plan).
