And you’ve made incorrect claims about staying on site. Like how that locks you into meals provided by Disney.


BS, and yes it freaking does lock you into meals with Disney. Not literally lock you in, but why would you stay on site and order to go from off site? As well as everything else. Disney is great, as good as it gets at customer service. They are also hell a good at their business of getting you to overspend on stuff you don't need, my wife is a perfect example of their perfect customer. Of course you can order pizza delivery and have some other food options, but who that stays on site actually does that? If you have the convenience of staying on site you may as well spend the extra and eat on site too.

Absolutely none of my claims have been false, you tried to talk about the valet and you were wrong about that as it stopped years ago. And yeah I didn't know about that and I probably would have used it if I'd known. I did literally eat at Kona Cafe multiple times, park at the Polynesian, and take the Monorail to MK. Maybe its not the perfect tip, but I do it often and it works and many don't know about it.

here’s the condo you get for $125/night with free breakfast and a separate room for your kids, not some little divider.


I said I prefer a suite or multiple hotel rooms over a standard room. That Suite I posted above has a door or actually two doors I believe separating the king from the other bed and two tvs.

I have two properties on VRBO in Florida, so yes I can find some condos/ VRBO for roughly the same. If we need 3-4 bedrooms that's what I do. I never said it was $125/ night, I said I save hundreds from taking that same group and staying on site.

Who said anything about ordering to go? If you are staying on site, you can pick up groceries just like anywhere else on your way in. If you are staying offsite, where do you eat lunch? Drive back to your hotel/suite/house/condo/farm?

You are talking to someone who has an excel file with 10 tabs half of which are dedicated to helping determine what's the cheapest route for meals while still eating where we want. Every chance I get, I preach against the meal plan for this reason. All of that being said, it has nothing to do with where you eat when you stay on site. Nothing stops people from getting fast food no matter where you stay.

Per year or per day? Please, please tell me that you don't think every person who stays on site ONLY eats at disney restaurants. FFS.

Your first sentence of this post is a lie. You even call yourself out on it.

Um. I edited that post before there was even a response to it. You see how that works? I made a statement. Double checked because I wasn't sure. And then corrected it along with some extra information.

Literally? Am I to assume that when you don't use the word "literally" that you aren't being honest?

I looked it up along with the floorplan. It's a half-room divider. No door.

How much do you spend on those condos?
