Hi There

Really want to put a deposit down for the end of November , just so i know i have to save and we are going ..
The offer at the min is a good one but don't know if to hold out for the free dining if they do that this year...
Have seen in the past people book the 2 free nights then change the booking to the free food and was wondering if this is difficult to do and was it a lot more cost wise ?? is it worth just booking food with the 2 nights offer ...
Really dont know what to do , we have been 15 times over the last 16 years and have always just ate at counter service but had the free food last time and enjoyed having that break and a relaxing meal , the free food did make a huge difference....
shouldnt even be thinking about going this year can't afford it as we are going to WDW for the first time in Aug for my 40th, but we cannot miss the 25th would be gutted , im sure im going to love Florida but DLP holds my heart
Thanks for any help...x

We had a 2n2d free offer but changed it to free dine as breakfast wouldve been charged. The difference between prices was so low it made sense to change it.

fabulous , that sounds good , thanks for that....
Could i ask , did you still have the 4n 5d or did it go back to 2n 2d with free food ??

We had a 4n 5d booking for 1 person (adding 2nd person at check in for room tax and breakfast cost only) that we changed to free dine plus 25% discount. When added up we saved close to £100. Whilst it doesnt seem much we eat out every day anyway so it was worth it for us.

We also booked on the 2d2n free offer and then looked at food offer but unfortunately it wasn't worth it for us so have stayed without food (we are going before March so breakfast included).
However I feel this was still a good way. You book knowing your going at a certain price and if a new offer comes out with food included that's worth it you can add it on as a bonus. I think it's better than waiting for one of those offers to come around when they may never.
