OK full steam ahead... I went ahead and bought AP's....now to TIW or not????

1. Is alcohol not included in the DVC discounts then?

2. Also, does TIW give any discounts at bars and lounges?

1-
the DVC Discount varies.. here is the summary that all ears does.
http://allears.net/pl/disc_dining.pdf
I don't see any Lounges included in the DVC column and ...

"DVC and AP discounts exclude alcoholic beverages"

2- TiW/DDE yes it works in all Lounges (unless I missed one.)
 
I believe at the lounges it does....like the one at BLT. Now sure where else? Regular resort bars.. ???? Not so sure.

It is not accepted at pool bars:sad1:, but it is accepted at the lounges like TOTW, Victoria Falls and the one in the "waiting room" at 50's PTC. I also used it at the bar at Sanaa to get a mango margarita which I then took outside and enjoyed while rocking in a chair, watching the giraffes and zebras:cloud9:.

I don't typically drink at home, but I do like to indulge (sometimes overindulge:upsidedow) while on vacation. I am not a beer drinker and I definitely prefer the mixed drinks and frozen cocktails. The TIW really helps ease the sting of the $9 margaritas. Now, if there were just a place that I could get a Grey Goose slushie with the discount...
 
It has gone up I do believe since the last time we had it. I surely don't remember paying 100 bucks. :faint: So not so sure if we will go for it. We don't eat a TS meal every day by any means.

We buy it when we have a couple trips planned. This year, we have 3 Disney trips, and one of them we are traveling with in-laws so there will be 8 of us. It will definitely be a big savings for us. :thumbsup2
 

We seemed to eat less and less TS restaurants on property with each trip. I totally understand.

that's why we don't get the TIW any longer, either.

the TIW was cost effective when we went as a family of 4 & ate mostly onsite. now, it just DD or DH and myself, and we eat mostly off-site, with an occasional stop at tangerine cafe (no TIW/AP/DVC discounts) and one night at BRG and/or boma (both DVC 10%).
like just about anything in life and wdw;), the TIW is not a "one size fits all"

:thumbsup2 Totally get it. We ate far more when our three were younger....lots of the character meals. We tend to eat at Liberty Tree once on a trip...sometimes twice if it a longer trip. We usually hit Via Napoli too. We loved LeCellier when they offered their lunch menu. Now it is just too pricey. We like a character breakfast but not even every trip. We tend to eat more and more CS meals..but not your typical burgers and chicken nugget meals. We enjoy the CS in THE LAND, the CS in Mexico. My dh will eat CS in Germany, China and UK. In AK we always eat at Flame Tree. If we eat at HS we usually hit Primetime and have eaten at Mama Melrose a couple of times. That park lacks decent CS. We also eat a few times out in town. We have a couple of restaurants we like.
 
:thumbsup2 Totally get it.
incredibly OT:rolleyes1...
but i really enjoy the threads you start :goodvibes
for all the vacations you've taken, the time you've been on the boards, you still have that contagious excitement, and you often bring up questions about little details & changes that i've missed :thumbsup2
