yes it freaking does lock you into meals with Disney

Not literally lock you in

why would you stay on site and order to go from off 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?

They are also hell a good at their business of getting you to overspend on stuff you don't need
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.
quote:

Of course you can order pizza delivery and have some other food options, but who that stays on site actually does that?
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.

Absolutely none of my claims have been false
Your first sentence of this post is a lie. You even call yourself out on it.

you tried to talk about the valet and you were wrong about that as it stopped years ago.
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.

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

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

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.
How much do you spend on those condos?

Is it feasible to spend under 2,500 on a Disney trip with:
2 adults
2 kids age 3+
1 kid under 2

Also what would be the best time of the year to get the best deal?


EDIT*** How much would just the park passes etc be>? Not Hotel/transportation( guessing that hotel would have a shuttle likely)

Sorry if HI-Jacking a little, but just looking to see what would be best options. 4 days enough? Haven't been as a family yet and looking to do it this year.

Some springhill suites have some rooms that have more than one room that aren't dividers or half rooms. True wall/door seperation. I've stayed in a few around the country. Marriott points rock.

Not sure if that particular hotel offers them though.
