Snack credit use during Summer months questions

[mickeys friend]

Besides water (we all know we'll need LOTS of water),what are some of the best things to use our snack credits for when we go in Aug.? I will more than likely pay for the water and keep the snack credits for other things,so what are some of the best things to get with them? I remember last year someone had a post that listed almost everything they could be used for at every park,but I don't see it now.Any help would be great.

We always seem to use our snack credits for ice cream bars. Especially Mickey bars. They are our favorite!

BTW the snack credit thread is the first thread on the Disney Dining Plan sub-forum.

No need to use SC on water.. All CS places will GIVE you a big cup of ice water!

The fruit/grape bowls are a great way to use the snack credits. Very refreshing and we only use 2 credits and have enough for all 4 of us. That leave us more credit to use at the Main St Bakery!!

Mickey ice cream bars are very good as well but eat them quick because they melt quite fast!!

For our upcoming August trip, I think we'll be using lots of snacks for Dole whip floats, smoothies (hey, they're kinda healthy!), milkshakes and anything ice creamish! While in December last year, we got lots of pretzels, funnel cakes and more filling snacks, to keep us warm.

And then we'll have 8 months to loose the weight we'll have gained, until our next trip in May 2011 !

These are so yummy!!! We always use our snack credits for these types of things until the last few days. If we find we are swimming in credits, I then start using them to buy water or drinks. While it may not be the best use of the credits, it makes no sense for me to spend money for those things so that on the last day, I can turn around and bring home a bunch of stuff that I really would not be getting anyway.

Get an ice cream sandwich at Main Street Bakery in MK. A whole family can share it.

we use our snack credits for the fruit bowls or a muffin at breakfast (we've always stayed at POR) from the food court. The muffins are huge and that way our breakfast is taken care of with a snack credit and all we have to buy is our drink. Then we eat cs for lunch and ts for dinner and that covers our meals for the day!

Here are my favorites when I am hot in each park.

MK- Dole Whip Floats!!!
EP- KAKI GORI!!! (So much better then a snow cone! I adore these!!!)
HS- Frozen Soft Lemonaid
AK- Smoothies

Smoothies, Milkshakes, Ice Cream, Ice Cream Sandwiches or bars, all good but my favories are Kaki Gori (so refreshing) and Dole Whip Floats!

Im so glad they have frozen lemonade I knowwhat im going to use my SC's on lol!!!!

We used most all of our snack credits on Frozen lemonades, iced coffees and fruit slushies from around the parks! They were so refreshing in that heat! We loved the slushies from Goofy's Candy Shop Downtown... we could mix any and all flavors!!! They were a fave and we returned twice during our trip to enjoy them!

Time for more coffee, folks...creativeamanda's post said "bolded items" were no longer available. The bold items no longer available for a snack credit were ham & cheese croissants, fried rice, and egg rolls.
