Hey. I am looking into purchasing an AP for the first time and crunching numbers to make certain that it is worth it. I would otherwise purchase a ten day ticket and the memory maker so I need to get about $206 worth of discounts out of the pass. How does the merchandise discount work? If I am in a store with my sister and she wants to purchase something, can she use the discount of my having an AP (since I will be there to show the pass and my ID)? What if we are in a store and we both want to purchase something? Can I make a purchase with my AP discount, and then also use it for her purchase?
We will be a group of 5 with one child so I am considering purchasing one AP for the discounts and everyone else will have simply park hopper tickets. We will not have a car so the parking discounts will not be useful and neither will resort discounts as we are renting DVC points. Because we will be mostly adults who will be having alcoholic drinks, I am also considering the TIW card. (Example at Biergarten restaurant: Total for 4 adults & 1 child buffet + 3 drinks= $232. With AP discount= $ 213. With TIW discount= $185). Also the TIW card would cover all of us for dining, while the AP discount will only cover 4 of us, right?
