Question about dining vouchers

[jenpace]

I just secured our GCH reservation for our summer trip

The CM on the phone suggested buying vouchers now for any character dining we might need since the prices will go up during super peak times and we'd save some $$ buying them before that price jump. Anyone have any idea how much the prices for say, GK or Storytellers buffet increase during peak?

Also, if anyone knows any other ways to get a good deal on dining vouchers, please share...

Thanks

I was told the "summer" prices are:

Goofy's breakfast/brunch: $29.99 adults, $15.99 kids 3-9
Goofy's dinner: $35.99 adults, $15.99 kids 3-9
Storyteller's: $24.99 adults, $12.99 kids 3-9

When I was looking at these vouchers, my math showed that the big savings was with Goofy's dinner, Ariel's princess lunch/dinner and PCH Grill Surf's Up breakfast when you get them through Disney with your package. Some people also buy them through last minute travel and since these are slightly cheaper other meals offer savings as well - you need to do the math (remember you need to add 8.75% tax and 15% tip to the above meal prices, whereas the vouchers include that). With LMT you will need to take the email they give you and exchange it at the park, whereas with Disney they will send it with your package.

We're leaving in a few days and I was considering doing this since we're doing GK with 4A/1c and AG with 1A/1c.

Where do I exchange the vouchers I buy from LMT? Is this the only place to buy them since we don't have a full package with Disney?

I believe it's the ticket booth in the esplanade, but I'm not positive. Maybe someone who has done it can chime in, or maybe LMT will give you the specifics when you buy. I got mine through Disney direct.

ETA: I think getaway travel and somewhere else sell them, but I believe LMT is the only one to sell them at a discount.
