Question for those on the DDP about Breakfast...

[MommySiobhan]

Most of our TS are used for Dinner, a couple times Lunch, so most of our CS are used for lunch. A couple leftovers are being alloted to breakfast but that;s it done.

I have two meals to pay OOP, one is a dinner at Rainforest Cafe and one a Breakfast at Chef Mickeys.

For those that have used up the CS and TS for the majority lunch and dinner, what do you do about breakfast? Do you just pay OOP? Do you use garden grocer? Do you eat a snack breakfast and have an early lunch?

We always eat breakfast in the room before we head out for the day.
We use wegoshop.com to deliver food to our room. We are light breakfast eaters. We order juice, water, soda, beer, wine, fruit, cheese, crackers snacks, coffee etc.
When I went with my DS and grandchildren in April, Mom brought dry cereal from home. We ordered jucie and milk from wegoshop.com. We also used snack credits to pick up fresh fruit for breakfast from Captain Cook's in the Poly. Breakfast was fast and easy.
We used most of our TS for dinner, and most of our CS for lunch.
We found the DDP to be lots of food. It was easy to use the snack credits to supplement the cereal with fruit for breakfast.
Hope this helps.

If you're going to pay for anything OOP I would suggest paying for breakfast.

We're also light breakfast eaters. A muffin, cereal bar, or piece of fruit is enough. We then eat an early lunch, either CS or TS, around 11:00 or 11:30. I could never eat three meals at Disney. Sometimes I have trouble with two full meals if we're not sharing.

For those that have used up the CS and TS for the majority lunch and dinner, what do you do about breakfast?

Simple for us. (We do a character meal dinner almost every night for our TS credits).

Everyday we skip breakfast & eat an early lunch at about 11:00. Works great!
This way we beat ALL the long lunch lines & get our food with no problem!
Then we use our snack credits in mid-afternoon.

I scheduled 3 breakfasts on the DDP: Fri. 8/10 at Chef Mickey's and Sun. 8/12 & Fri. 8/17 at Maya Grill @ CSR. The other days breakfast in room.

Some days my husband and I will split a CS meal at our resort for breakfast (too much food for 1 person that early in the morning anyway!!). Another good place to split a CS meal is the MK bakery. Other days, we'll just eat fruit or other stuff from the grocery store (we always rent a car). We also tend to split CS meals for lunch too because some of the portions are downright huge (and we always want to save room for our yummy and HUGE table service dinners).

We do this too, with one small exception. Dd5 can't skip breakfast, so we get her something on a snack credit (like a large fruit cup or muffin). We also pack a suitcase with granola bars and bottled water, so we use some of that for dd's breakfast and snacks too. When we get snacks in the afternoon dh and I each get something different and we all share.

We sometimes pay OOP for breakfast. We generally do not eat full hot breakfasts, and instead get things like muffins, cereal, and yogurt. WDW has great pastries for breakfast in all the resort food courts and CS spots. Fresh fruit is always there and good as well.

Near the end of our trip, we had some snack credits left and we used those for some of the breakfast items--which you're allowed to do if the item is less than $4.00, so that included things like pastries and yogurt parfaits.

We also ended up with some extra CS meals because we did one OOP TS for lunch one day, and for that we got some Mickey waffles and a breakfast platter. Using CS credits for breakfast is not the best use of those credits, however, because lunch is more expensive, but instead of wasting the credits, we used them on breakfast.

we bring breakfast foods from home in a small cooler (muffins, milk, pop tarts, apples & pb, etc.) and eat in the room before leaving for the day. works great for us.

Now that sounds like my kind of breakfast!

Hubby never eats breakfast and I usually have a bagel or a muffin, so we can easily do that while at WDW. We'll have a car too, so I'm thinking we'll just take a run to Dunkin Donuts or the local bagel shop and keep some in the room for breakfast as we head to the parks. I'm also going to make sure we have our Dunkin gift cards with us so if we want a breakfast sandwich, we'll be able to do that.

I'm also planning on bringing a small package of DD coffee for hubby to make for himself in the morning. I don't drink coffee, but he'll need a cup to start his day.
