We'd done DDP twice, loved it, but agree that it's an awful lot of food (which, unfortunately, I eat every bite of...despite all the walking I do (and love doing) at Disney, I come home yet heavier every time on the DDP!)...
Yes, I get that five pound add-on when I go to Disney
So, this last trip, when we had a split stay, we didn't sign up for the DDP for the first two days ... and we spent more money on less food those two days ...
OK, this is what I was wondering. So you didn't cook in your room? Did you have breakfast in your room. How many are in your party? I have two children under 10 and two adults.
So, we're DDP addicts...my only remaining challenge is to figure out how NOT to eat every last bite to which I'm "entitled" (under the plan).
I understand. It was good thing that I got a stomach virus last year. My husband was 6'3" with a 32" waist before going, and after the first week, his 34" pants were too tight!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! All I could hear coming from the bathroom was, "oh my gosh." He ate and ate and ate around 17 pounds worth, which look good on him since he was sooo skinny before.
..but for us, the cost of the plan each day is about equal to one TS dinner for each of us--maybe a tad less...so the CS and snacks are "gravy"...but w/out the plan, we go TS at least once each day anyway--and we do eat more than once each day--so we save money even when we have too much food...
Yeah, I am just wondering if we will be going to TS every day. It is fun, but time consuming.
