I was at All Star Movies resort today, and I saw Disney has changed the price of the resort mug, and done away with tiers. The length of stay now costs $16.49, down from $17.99. Also, there are no more 1,2, or 3 day options. The cast member said guests complained about when the one day plan started especially. She said if guests arrived later in the day, the whole mug plan was practically wasted. I'm not 100% sure this has been changed at every resort yet.

Not to start a debate which I have participated in before - but I think the whole rapid fill thing remains ridiculous. But I was happy to see the lower price. My qualm now is that when I was at Sports all last week - the CMs failed to refill the syrup for many of the products on both side of the station. And after 1030pm - getting soda was a nightmare especially when people do not know how to use the machine.

and by making it one price the only thing the RFID RapidFill now does is stop you using a mug from a previous trip.

They should have still offered two prices, maybe $11.49 for up to five days then $16.49 for length of stay, that way its better value than the pointless one day option and short stays save $5.

But I do agree that the one day mug is pointless as you get three refills in an hour or two on a paper cup.

I agree with your point but you get more than 3 refills each hour with the mug.

Noticed the price had gone down this trip.

My point was you get 3 refills in an hour (or maybe two) with a paper cup, before the paper cup stops working. Paper cups are $2.99, so for a one day use it was better value to pay per drink than to get the refillable mug at $8.99. If you have a stay of under five days it may still work out better to pay per cupthan to pay the $16.49 for the mug.
