Tables in Wonderland price goes up $50/yr

[Anal Annie]

We've also been buying it since it was the DDE card prior to changing to TIW (used to be like $50) and so are sad to see the latest increase. Since it's a percentage based discount the larger your party the more you save - so for larger parties it's still a good deal, especially considering the latest price increases on all of the meals. The card we have now we purchased last summer for the old $100 price and it is getting us thru 4 trips and expires at the end of August so we're getting our monies worth on it. Sadly we have another quickie adults trip in Sept. for F&W so we won't have it for that one - but the bright spot on that will be that since we're there for F&W and they don't take it at the kiosks it won't hurt THAT bad to not have it. ANYWAY, we're just a family of 3 adults. But at a break even point of $750 that's essentially only about 6 TS meals @$125 (not THAT hard to spend these days now that everything costs you your first born - I mean look at what Ohana or Boma or Garden Grill costs per adult). Doubt we will buy a new one on our Sept. trip - we can just use our AP or DVC discounts where we can get them. But we do have another family trip planned for January so will have to evaluate what to do on that trip - we'll see how many TS meals we decide to plan. No definite plans beyond January and DS (now in college) may not be able to join us next summer. While I am unhappy with the 50% price increase I am even more unhappy about the increase in meals Disney wide. Disney is all about the money grab these days.

That's pretty much spot on.

We decided after our trip a few weeks ago to stop with the TS meals. The food is not that great anymore by a long shot. Even Ohana was meh for me. The food quality, and the increase in the card make this an easy to not get it again.
