I know that there are many anxious DISers waiting to call bright and early Monday (if you're a Disney VISA cardholder) to book the free dining promotion. So, what are you hoping/planning to book? Myself, I am going to book PC for 7 nights (9/15-9/22) for myself and two very good friends from work. They are my "keep me young" friends (they are 13 & 16 years younger than me) and I know that we will have a BLAST!! We firmed up all our plans today, so I'm set to call Monday morning. I like to "name" our trips (it drives my son NUTS!), so this trip has been dubbed "Girls Gone Wild, Disney Style". Pretty catchy, huh?! We are headed to WDW with DH's family (15 of us in all) in 70 days, but I am soooooo excited about this girls only trip. Hope everyone gets what they are hoping for. Good luck!
 
I'm hoping to get free dining for my first trip EVER to Disney! We just decided we'll go even if we can't get free dining, but wouldn't that make it all the more special if we are able to get it? (And it'll save us about $500)
 
We're hoping for POP from 9/16 -9/26 but we're pretty flexible. We can also do ASMo or POR. I really didn't want to pull the kids out of school, but we can't go any earlier because we have a baby due 8/23 and even 9/16 is pushing it a bit. We've taken all three of our DDs before at about 8-10 weeks old, but we're making an early trip for free dining. I'm hoping that everything will fall into place and we'll have a great trip. After that, it's back to work for me, so it will be our last vacation for awhile. Hopefully, I'll be starting a new job soon after we get back. It stinks to be starting over with vacation time and all that, but we'll end the maternity leave on a good note with a trip to WDW with Free Dining!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
We tried to get the Poly for our trip in 26 days & couldn't get any discount. Called last night & booked the Poly for 5 nights:banana: with tickets & dining. Monday am I will call to adjust the ressie with the free dining. Been a Disney Visa cardmember for years-finally paying off with a 3 day head start!! Looking so forward to our trip to FQ next month. Will be visiting the Poly for 3 meals. Guess we'll see if it is really worth the extra money. If not, guess we'll cancel & save the money for next year.
 

POP or AS-Sports for 5 nights with ressies at WCC, R&C, Biergarten, PTC, and LTT. Somewhere around Sept 12-17. Last year I booked very similar on 6-11.

We are going 9/22 - 9/29. We are planning on staying at POFQ but I will go with POP if nothing else is available. I plan on pricing out a few options on Monday morning to see what works best for us. I should say we means me, my mom and my 2 DS (5 & 7). DH said not Disney for him this year :rolleyes: Oh well, we will have a great time without him!!!

I already have my ADRs for the week. I have been booked at POFQ since the 40% promo. I was able to get everything that I wanted and at the times I wanted (even though I called a day late) so I take that as a good sign of availablity at the resorts for that week!!!

We have ADRs for CP (8:05 am!!!), Boma, LeCellier, Chef Mickey's, 'Ohana, Donald's, Marrakesh, and Mama Melrose's (Fantasmic package)
 
Planning for 8/26-9/2 CBR
