QS credits

[MinnieMommy07]

I hear a lot about people banking their snack credits for the end of their trip so they can pick up alot of snacks at say for example Goofy's Candy Co.

I was wondering can this be "done in reverse". For example could you use all of your weeks snack credits on day 1 of your stay?

Another question. I was wondering if for example, you were getting your lunch somewhere and my daughter wanted to eat what I was eating. She'd be on the Kids plan so she'd only be able to do the Kids stuff. Could we order her something else OOP as well? Should we bring a seperate credit card to charge our OOP food?

Thanks for answers!

wouldn't see why you couln't but all the snacks at the start. As for buying additional food, you can, but you may not need to. My kids never really liked kid food, but we found that we could pull resources and makea qs meal that everyone was happy with, theres a lot of food in the ddp and with a bit of thought I am sure that it will be enough to feed a child with stuff she'd like.

I also was thinking that my hubby is a pretty thirsty guy and he'll probably want seconds on a drink... how would that work?

I was very curious about this topic because I could just see us hopping around the park and getting a couple snacks our first day and didn't want them to charge us for a meal instead for our second snack.

ie: funnel cake and a dole whip and a mickey bar. Those are three snacks on our first day and we're only allowed one per day.... Wouldn't want to go back to the resort later and pick out our suppers and find out "we already ate them".

It's not that you're only "allowed" one per day - you're "allotted" one per day. All of your meals and snacks are available to you to use as you wish as of your first night. So in theory, if you wanted to eat say ... 4 meals apiece and use 7 snacks your first night, you COULD (not that you'd have room for all that food, but you can use your credits this way if you choose).

When you purchase a meal or snack using the dining plan, the cashier will give you a receipt. At the bottom of the receipt, it will show you how many credits are remaining. You can also get a printout at the front desk if you lose one of your receipts.

yes you can use your snack credits whenever. When you check in, you have all of your credits for your stay available. So use them whenever you like!

As for the seconds on a drink, just make sure you ask for the largest size when you order and do that for everyone on the plan. That way he should have enough unless all of you are pretty thirsty.

There are a couple places where you can get your own refills, but I don't recall where they are. Perhaps someone else can help out with that??

If he's still thirsty after the largest soda, ice water is always free.
