Starbucks tip I just found for those on DDP

[newestkg06]

ALL sizes are available for 1 snack credit (so why not order the biggest, right?). For those with kids, some of the Frappuccino varieties do not have caffeiene. The vanilla creme one looks especially good. The chocolate smoothie has a banana in it, and looks relatively healthy (though lots of sugar). I'm not a coffee drinker, but I love smoothies. I didn't even really think about Starbucks, but this may be a great use of a snack credit and a family could share as a nice cool pick me up.

We totally used this to our advantage! You can order a venti and add extra shots all on a snack credit I don't typically drink a venti so it was a treat to have a bigger iced coffee in the heat. Although it just more water to chase it down with!!

Good tip!

It's one I often forget when getting CS meals on the dining plan elsewhere - drinks come with meals, and you can get a large or medium... why not get a large?

When we were there last June (2014), we could order the Trenta size as a snack credit (largest size at Starbucks and it's not listed on the menus at most of our Starbucks back home.) I thought it was an excellent use of a credit as this size is HUGE! My four year old loves the creme frappuccinos. Right now they even have flavors like Cotton Candy, Red Velvet, Lemon Bar, and Cupcake without caffiene (in honor of the frappacinos 20th anniversary)! : )

This is very good to know!! My DH loves extra shots in his Starbucks!

Great to know, thanks!! We usually order a tall or grande but we could order a venti or trenta and share, using only one snack credit!! Yay!

Yes, hubby will be happy to get a decent coffee (and a big one!), but I'm also happy that there are some decent non-caffeinated options that I didn't know about too. Hopefully that info helps someone! I know some people were none too happy about Starbucks coming to the parks, but the addition of smoothies and some to-go cupcakes sounds good to me!

I plan on using my snack credits here as well. Adding soy milk, flavoring and an extra shot to my iced coffee or latte adds up!

I'll be sure to let my DD know. I'm sure she'll use a snack credit or two when we go in a few weeks! Thanks!

Can I assume that if I order a counter service meal I.e. A sandwich that my drink can be a coffee or a frap?

Probably, but the park locations only have the breakfast sandwiches. You'll have to go to the DS location to get any of the other "meals." Since the park locations only have breakfast, you may forfeit the dessert portion of a QS meal since breakfast only includes the entree and drink. This would not be a very good value on the DDP.

Ah I didn't realise they didn't serve the other sandwiches at the parks. Thank you for telling me this
