Dining Discount Club is fantastic!

[lamarvenoy]

I bought a membership in the Dining Club last week and I used it for the 1st time on my trip from Thursday to Sunday. They had my temporary cards waiting for me at the Epcot service window. I used it...alot. I stayed at POP so it was valid in the food court and it saved me a ton of money.We ate at Citrico's on Friday and that meal alone with my wife, sister, bro-in-law, baby and myself the discount was nearly $30. Not bad since the card cost me $50.In 3 weeks I'll be going for another 4 night stay at the OKW resort and we will have a bunch of family with us, every night we have ressies for a high end dinner so this card will save me a fortune! It even saved me at the outer limit lounge at the Contemporary(my favorite watering hole). The fact that it includes liquor is awesome, suddenly the wine choices seem much more reasonable.If you are on the fence like I was jump off and get it.

Hiya. Actually, it is now available to anyone for the price of $75. You don't have to ba an annual passholder or a resident of Florida.

Do you have a source on that? Everything I have seen is AP or FL resident only.

As of January 2005, membership in the Disney Dining Experience is open to Florida residents, as well as Annual Passholders no matter their state of residence.

I believe you are misreading this because the way I am interpreting it is you must either be: (1) FL resident; or (2) Any AP holder in any state. The "no matter their state of residence" refers to AP holder's who live outside of FL. It's not that just anyone in any state can purchase the DDE if they decide to visit disney and don't have an AP. It is not open to the general public.

So if I live in PA and am not an AP holder I can't get the DDE card?

So like I said you must be a Florida resident OR an AP holder. If you don't have either you will not be able to get a DDE card.

Correct

The formal name is the Disney Dining Experience, you can find the info on Disney's website. It costs $75 to normal people or $50 to passholders. It enables you to receive a 20% discount on food AND liquor at many restaurants throughout the property. If your resort doesn't offer any sit down restaurants it is valid at the food courts and most inside bars. A complete list is furnished. Most sit down restaurants throughout the parks are on the list and you can use your discount for up to 10 people.

Are you saying passholders aren't normal?

I'd say the whole bunch of us don't exactly qualify as "normal," but then again I think being "normal" is highly overrated!!!

 

[DisneyMissy]

Well, there goes that idea for me now....

DDE is wonderful. I really like that it can be used at counter service at the value resorts and AK as well.
