WDW Meal Plan ??

[NandP]

I am looking for info on WDW Meal plans for a family of 4 (2-adults, 7yo & 2yo)...

We have a trip planned for August 7days at Beach Club DVC....

Is there a plan that is worth it? Does you save you $$ in the long run or is it better to do your own thing..

I've budgetted $125 / day for all food/snacks/drinks in teh past, and we found that we didn't spend that musch...

Is there a good place to get info and descriptions, costs ?....

Any experiences you found to be good or bad??

Any info would be appreciated as always....


Thanks...

If your'e staying on points, there are no meal plans available. If your'e paying cash, you could add on the silver plan. You also may want to consider buying some meal vouchers from hotwire.

My understanding is that you can only get WDW meal plans when you book a package. Since you are a DVC member and this is not a package, I don't think you can get them.

Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

You can't buy plans when staying on points.

They used to offer them, but DVC members didn't buy them. In general meal plans are a poor value - unless you are planning on eating your way through WDW and always order all three courses, and the expensive stuff with each course.

I will keep it short and simple for you:
Stay away from the plans, in my opinion, I don't think they are a good deal because you have to eat so much food to get your monies worth.

Just visit DEB'S SITE and look over the menus so you can get a really good idea on prices. Try to do late lunches instead of dinners and you will save the big bucks! Still the same great food, the same generous portionings, but for less money.

I do hope I've helped.
