Sharing, Child OOP, CS at TS - No Problem!

[Brygida]

Just returned from DDP week 8/13 thru 8/19. We had 3 families in two rooms, with overlapping stays, same person in two rooms at different times, with a toddler. It was a bit complicated.

Having the DDP was great, but there were a few heated "discussions" the first couple days while everyone got up to speed as to which room card they were to use, when. No flaming please, WDW insisted we buy the plan for the person staying in two rooms twice, so it was all legal! Anyway, here is what I learned....

Sharing was never a problem! In all honesty we shared with the toddler and amongst the adults at CS with no problems.

Paying for anyone OOP was never an issue. The servers all did what we asked them to (put two TS meals on this card, and 3 on this card) with no questions asked (except at Raglan Road, which I'll post separately).

Also, since we had a couple of late dining reservations, a couple of times the toddler had already had his dinner and did not eat at all at our TS meal. Many times, I would buy a CS meal that I thought he would eat with his credits and brought it with us to a TS meal. No one ever said anything negative about doing this.

Thanks for sharing. We are headed down next week on the DDP. Last year we had no problems with DDP and don't anticipate any this trip.

This is interesting and useable information. Let's not spoil it by any arguments.
Thanks in advance

We just got back from 8 days on the dining plan and were allowed to share and pay OOP at Teppanyaki. My DD doesn't eat meat, so the kids meals there was out of the question for her. She ate my edamame app, her own rice (OOP), her own sprite (OOP), her own order of tamago (OOP) and my green tea ice cream.

ETA: We also paid OOP for her at Prime Time Cafe since we were saving one of her TS credits for a breakfast at CRT with my sister's family. My DH and I had no interest in doing CRT now that it is so expensive.
