We don't do the DDP anymore now that both my kids are over 10 years old. We have groceries delivered to take care of things like breakfast, bottles of water, soda, and snacks. Our last trip, I had $2000 in Gift Cards which I purchased at Sam's club that we used for food/snack purchases. I saved $60 on the initial $2000 purchase by the discount Sam's gives and I also got 2% back on my CC in cash ($40), so we saved about $100 doing it this way. In the end, the $2000 was pretty close to what we needed for our 7 night trip. We had 2 TS meals during that trip and the rest were all QS. I think I had a $75 bill for WeGoShop to deliver our other food. Compared to what the DDP would cost for 4 adults for 7 days, we came out ahead. In the heat of the summer, we were not interested in big, sit down meals. We only did 2 (Ohana and Cape May) spaced out throughout the trip. IMO, it is very hard to even break even with the DDP, maybe on the DxDDP and there is really no purpose for my family to use it.
