Since you're an AP holder, you could get a Disney Dining Experience membership for $50. You'd get 20% off at a number of sitdown restaurants and a few resort counterservice locations as well. It's not quite as good as have $11.50 Q&Cs to use at Beaches & Cream but it's better than nothing.
The nice thing is that the DDE does not specify a time (like the VKLs) and you do not have to get everything from appetizer to dessert. It covers all meals (breakfast, snacks) and even covers alcoholic beverages. It may be worth looking into if you're planning a long trip or more than one trip in a year.
