It may be cheaper just to pay OOP for meals, but I like the fact I wouldn't have anything to worry about.

Oh, it'd be worth it all right!

Hmm, $1749 is £1070. That means mine is cheaper, even though i'm staying for longer Although, I used independent websites instead of Disneys. On Disney's it'd be about £1200.

 

[AliceinHalloweentown]

Yeah yeah yeah.. I get it you're English and everything is just so magical for you

I have free flights xD And deluxe dining plan, not regular.

Hmm.. I wouldn't usually have bfast at the parks but I guess this gives me right to... If I could get a bus that early.

You said deluxe dining plan right? That costs about $70, if xe.com is correct. Let's assume a random day (choosing lowest prices)

Breakfast - Kouzzina.
Steel cut cinnamon porridge. $6.49
French toast. $10.49
Orange juice. $2 (I'm guessing)
Total = $18.98

Lunch - Le Cellier.
Canadian chedder cheese soup. $6.99
Grilled steak burger. $12.49
Chocolate "Moose". $5.99
Coke. $2
Total = $27.47

Dinner - Coral Reef.
Mixed greens salad. $6.99
Wild mushroom lasagna. $16.99
Tropical fruit mango sorbet. $7.99
Coke. $2
Total = $33.97

Snacks = 2 schoolbreads.
Total $4.

Add that together, you get $84.92. You save nearly $15. That's with the cheapest things. I know the starters are included, because I picked up the deluxe dining plan booklet whilst in WDW.

This is probably too late now, but still

xD

No that works, you're absolutely right.. So far, with the exception of the first night, I've gone over 70 p/day.

Thanks for putting it in perspective

Finished literature.
That was the only thing I was worried about.
I want to finish Seeing Redd so I can go to the library and get Inkheart.

 

[marypops!]

Woot for me

The only problem is, managing to eat it all! We were on the original dining plan, and that was hard to stick to at times.

 

[AliceinHalloweentown]

Yeah I can pretty much garantee I'll have meals leftover.. but that's not too big of a deal, because thus far my meals are pretty expensive xD

 

[AliceinHalloweentown]

Does a milkshake count as a non-alcoholic beverage?

 

[::Snow_White::]

We added up everything we were going to eat on our '10 trip (CS meals and snacks, everything the DP has) and we'd be losing money if we did the dining plan.

Plus we could never eat that much. So it'd be wasting money.

 

[marypops!]

That's not good, losing money D-:

Yup, any drinks with no alcohol in counts. Too bad some are non refillable (like milkshakes). I was the one to normally get the milkshakes (or chocolate milk :-D) and the day I didn't, everyone else did Though it was in the Sci Fi Dine In, so I can see why.

They have one of those in the China Pavillion in Epcot. It's by the fountains in the shop. I couldn't get it to work as well as that! I did make it hum though

 

[AliceinHalloweentown]

That's awesome. I'm totally doing that next time I go.. on my imaginary post grad trip xD

 

[AliceinHalloweentown]

And wow.. I'm actually STUCK after 4 park days.. I'm not used to going for so long xD

There's restaurants I want to try, so I guess I'll try to fit them in or something now...

 

[nerdylightbulb]

I like my sammich

 

[marypops!]

You should get this book:

http://www.amazon.co.uk/Hidden-Magic-Walt-Disney-Wor/dp/1605500631

Some in there most people know. Some rarely anyone knows. It's where I got the Expederest knowledge for the imagineering thread

 

[AliceinHalloweentown]

Meh. Yak and Yeti isn't covered by the plan. I love that place <3

 

[AliceinHalloweentown]

OH wait wait wait. Nevermind. Passporter says they often just need time to work out their deals with Disney, and most restaurants removed get put back on. Okay freak out.. over. xD

Maybe split up a few days so you spend them in a certain area of a park, like instead of doing all the countries at once, split it into half (or quarters) and pace youself?
