Well, im a numbers runner... and this is what i have found... i'm a recent AP holder, so for me to qualify for the 4/3 deal, i had to buy a 1 day ticket. Plus for the dates i'm wanting to go to WDW, the week of May 10th, right now the 40% off deal doesnt apply to these dates... so then i was thinking about waiting around for some room only deals either GP or AP... but what i've come up with so far... not sure either the GP or AP code could beat 4/3 deal... What do yall think?? This is for a value resort (POP).

My number have shown that using the 4/3 deal (numbers include room w/tax):
Discount percentage off weekday rack rate: 45.70%
Discount percentage off weekend rack rate: 40%

(i goofed on my spreadsheet put 3/4 instead of 4/3)
Here is my math:

UPDATE:
Ran more numbers came up with totals:

Rack: $849.38
4/3: $555.88 (includes $80 for myw ticket)
40%:$509.63 (not offered for my dates of travel)
 
Well i went ahead and purchased the 4/3 plan, was afraid that i wasnt going to get a better deal resort wise (im an AP holder) and then was thinking what happens if POP is no longer available (i would be super upset) and then the 40% is not available for my dates, the list goes on and on, so i just bit the bullet... only thing i dont like is having to purchase the 1 day MYW ticket... wish they gave some slack to the AP holders... oh well, a discount is a discount....
 
i booked pofq w/the 4/3 deal and we had to purchase the 1 day base tickets(which i hate to do too) for 5/31-6/6 and the total was - $1082
i got the 40% flyer in the mail and we called back to book pop w/out the tickets and it is $483. saved us lots of money. we got the 4/3 deal for feb. @ pop with the $200 gc and it was $795. so, we are definately getting some good deals this year.

I guess I should of put that im a solo traveler.... so when you have to buy more than 1 myw ticket, i totally see where your coming from. Wish as a AP holder that we didnt have to buy the MYW ticket...
