Oh yes, sorry, you are calculating for 2 adults. It really depends on how you eat. The buffet's and character meals are expensive...and you need to calculate the tip as well. One character meal, for example, Crystal Palace can be as much as $ 37 to $ 43.00. At the high end, that's $ 86.00 for two adults, w/o a tip. Add another $ 16.00 to that and you are spending $ 102.00 for two, for one meal. You can look at meal prices here: http://allears.net/dining/menu I use it to calculate a budget when I'm paying OOP. It's a really good site and they try and keep it updated.
How much was your bill for you to tip $175 I'm just curious if you don't mind telling us?
I think it is high. I budget $ 15 - $ 17 for lunch (I think this is generous for me). I give myself about $ 5.00 for a snack, some are cheaper, some may be a bit more. So 2 snacks $ 10.00. That's roughly $ 25.00 a day. So for me, the quick service isn't a good deal if I'm paying for it. I'd rather pay OOP.
It is finally sunny here, been raining all week. I put my kitty cat's outside, there is still snow on the ground so they aren't that keen on going out....LOL! Did some cleaning....and now I'm back. Pretty soon my legs will shrink up to nothing and I'll have a great big head, after sitting at my computer so much of the day! My addiction is in full swing!
I agree, I really enjoy sitting down in a nice restaurant, laughing over things we did all day and just relaxing. It is definitely part of my experience.
Can you please tell me specifically how you got the BOG dinner? It's our top priority and I'm nervous about getting it. I'm still two months from my ADR date but was just wondering your strategy and how much dinner availability there was when you got it?
We'll do 14 days quick service this year. Next year we'll do 14 days TS. We go from one extreme to another.
Did you book yours at the 180 mark? That's awesome you were able to get all your choices
I always book the "must have" reservations 1st and try to book them for the last few days of my day since the 1st few days are usually fully booked. Once I secure them and the rest of my ADRs then I'll play around a bit and see if other dates and times are available. I make a plan of which days I plan on being in each park so that helps with ADR planning. Just be ready to be flexible if need be
Well, I tip 20%, so my math tells me that it was about $900. We bought a few apps and each had 2 glasses of wine, but the tip would have been at least $100 if we had only eaten what was covered by the dining plan. My point is that the tips get expensive if you eat in these places. I would budget at least $15/person/day for tips.
