That's awesome that you asked, haha! Bummer about the answer...but probably expected, lol!I tried asking about the Canadian Ticket & Dining Package....figured it wouldn't hurt. Turns out I would need to be Canadian to take advantage of that one. Go figure! Was told upon check in they require Canadian ID for verification of everyone. I'm so bummed, nothing available for my travel dates. Everything was taken by the time my phone call was answered at 8am.
I have to ask from looking at your signature...which child doesn't get to go? lol! I'm envisioning you drawing straws: "Well kids...Disney rooms only fit 5 people so whoever draws the short straw has to stay home with the dog..."
LOL! Totally Kidding, haha!
That's awesome! 2 Trips for mom is better than 1!

Oh okay! I was like what am I missing out on! I priced out that option too, but the SPD worked out better for us!
So the basic answer here is that free dining kicks SPDs butt (but your probably already realize that)! My concern on SPD is that they've continually cut the amount of the discount each year. (There's some detail on that in my first post). While I'd agree with your estimation...the unfortunate part is there's no guarantee they don't further cut the discount. But there's also no guarantee of free dining or any discount for that matter. Good luck in your planning - and my advice is if you're staying at value or moderate go during free dining if you can if you're looking for the best deal.
1) In the past you've been able to upgrade. I would be surprised if they ever eliminated that option as it makes Disney more money.
Thank you. That's kind of what I was figuring. Still ends up being about $140 cheaper to stay at pop and upgrade to the regular dining than it would be to stay at CBR using this year's calculations. I'll check the actual cost out when they release the package (if they do).
I'll answer this first - it's easier. We buy them at Giant Eagle (Pittsburgh grocery store) which does promotions sometimes of $0.20 off per gallon of gas for buying $50 gift cards. You can get 30 gallons per fill-up and that math works out to 12% off (in the form of free gas).
I will try to field this question but it's complex. It seems you have 7 people total. How many will be in the room with dining? How many in the other room? Which room will the 6 yr old be in?
