******Official 2017 Free Dining Plan Watch, Wait, and Dream

[aekelburg]

As much fun as this is I plan on booking a bounce back for next year. Way less stress and since I'm flexible with dates I can work around whatever is available. I don't like not knowing what or if. I'm kind of a control freak.

Definitely go for the bounce back. Kind of kicking myself for not doing that back in December. But back then it was only a room offer. Although good, we tend to make out better with free dining. Usually in the fall months the bounce back is Free dining though, and that would save SOOOOOO much stress.

Im in the opposite boat-its gonna take all my strength not to book a bounceback. My son is 14 and as such we have a lot of large expenditures on the horizon so vacations may be need to be off for a while. but if i have a clear memory of how I feel right now I might just over power my budget conscious thinking and book while the booking is good. Hopefully free dining isnt like childbirth and you forget afterwords how much it sucked so you are willing to go through it all again-like childbirth the end result is so satisfying though.

I'm going in September and I'm hoping the bounceback is still free dining.

I think I would still rather book the bounceback with the possibility of having to cancel later. You don't lose anything if you have to cancel. You lose a lot more if you don't book.

Oh no your tempting me and it makes sense too. I'll never have the strength.

I'd always rather spend my money on Vacations than almost anything else-its my Achilles heel.

I'm getting more congested as the night goes on. I really hope this drops sooner rather than later.

Did Dirty Steve or Black show up today or yesterday because it's tomorrow now, right? I'm tired.

 

[Ahoerler]

Got it, thanks!
I already have 2 rooms with PH booked at POP with dining upgrade. I have the "change reservation" button option and so I am hoping I can do the change to free dining with upgrade online so I don't have to wait till 7 am. Do you think I will be able to?

I hope so! Let me know how it turns out I will be doing the same thing as you next year thx!

That sounds like an invitation to be even more comfy on the couch and fall asleep lol

I almost booked the bounceback last Sept but the dates were not good as we like to go later in the month...lesson learned since they seem to take away something every year that decreases the value.

the dates wouldn't have worked for me for September this year either but thankfully I have all of November and December to choose from next year. I just have to hope they still offer it.
