My family (2 adults, 1 child) was lucky enough to score Monday morning a FD offer at CBR for mid-December, but with required upgrades (Park Hoppers & Room Upgrades) it wasn't worth the price increase vs paying for meals out of pocket, so we declined. Yesterday, out of the blue we received a UOC for room discount in our email for up to 30% (20% for CBR). When we called a CM, the only upgrade we had to do was from a Standard to a Preferred room with a lake view. Even with this minor upgrade, it still ended up being a savings of several hundred dollars, which will cover most of our out of pocket meals. The offer included "For stays most nights 8/26–11/22/16 and 11/26–12/23/16. Book through 8/31/16."
The CM told us that a certain number of UOCs are allocated to different regions by Zip Code, and that your likelihood of getting one improves based on how their Marketing evaluates your interactions with WDW (trip planning, contacts with CM, etc). Don't know how true that is, but keep your eyes open.
