Please help me with DDP & TIW or DxDP??

[heathers4um]

I am so confused....and hungry now.

I dont know whether to do the DxDP, or do the TIW card. If I did it correctly, the TIW card will give us a bit more flexibility and will not make me so crazy.

I counted up where I want to go and averaged out the meal costs OOP (sans adult beverages since the DxDP doesnt include those). Then I compared it to the cost of the DxDP. Its about equal although I didnt figure in the snacks.

Then, I took the figure it would cost for the meals OOP and compared it to what I would save with TIW. I would save about 160 after the $75 the TIW costs, and that doesnt count the adult beverages.

I should tell you here that we will be in EPCOT one day for F&W so I know I should figure that in but I dont know how since I have never been.

Soooo...am I seeing it clearly that TIW is my best bet? For my wallet and my waistline?

Or...is it best to go regular DDP and use TIW?

See, for THIS moment, that makes more sense to me. But...

I know - I have asked this all before but I am still having trouble figuring it out...can someone please take pity on me and tell me what to do?

What is a TIW?

TIW = Tables in Wonderland. It used to be called Disney Dining Experience. If you are an AP holder, you can pay $75 (for DVC) or $100 (for regular AP holders) and get a TIW card that gives you 20% off at participating restaurants. This includes adult beverages as well.

See, I am thinking if we did the DDP and got the TIW card, it would provide us with more flexibility - and the 20% off adult beverages just rounds it out for us since we will be partaking a bit. Then I think maybe just the TIW card makes more sense and it will give us the ultimate in flexibility if I wanted an app and dessert instead of a full course meal. ARGGGGGG! See what I mean....?
