We got the pin code too yesterday, but the free dining beats the pin codes for us. We're sticking with the dining! :sohappy:

Very glad to hear someone else say this!! I was worried that it did not sound correct.....you hear so often that room discounts are better than free dinning!!! We are sticking with the free dinning also! :wave:

:lol: Yeah, really I could care less about the room rate, we're hardly in there anyway when we're at Disney. But food? Yeah, I want to be able to get the most out of my dining experience, and free dining does that FOR US! Enjoy!!:wave:

Sometimes they are, sometimes they are not. It will largely depend on your resort level and party size. For your typical family of 4 with 2 kids under 9 Free dining tends to win out at the values, it is a wash at the moderates and room discounts tend to win at the deluxe resorts. Of course every situation is a little different and you have to run the numbers to be sure.

Lots of black out dates...

Okay, this doesn't seem like a true pin code for discounts upon a second look. It's more like one of those standard package deals with a perk. Maybe I'm wrong, but that's what it seems to me Or perhaps I'm trying to convince myself that's what it is because any window of travel I have is excluded.

If there is a code that you meed to give a CM at the bottom of the ad then it is a PIN code offer. If there is not then it is most likely a standard general public offer.

Exactly! Hubby was drilling me about this very thing two days ago. I had a heckuva time reassuring him that free dining was saving us more than a room discount would at POFQ. Our boys are considered adults. The free dining wins in a standard view!

I was very surprised...we are in a deluxe resort and our DD are 19 & 17, so when he said you would be paying $400 more with the PIN I was shocked. We have always found free dinning to be a great value for us. But I am always looking for a better deal.

With me I think it's b/c the past 5 trips I've taken to wdw have been with him & under his name.

I would call them and tell them he moved away and ask them to insert your name for that address instead. It's worth a shot!

Here's what I got yesterday:

I already have non-expiration remaining WPF&M tickets, so I'd rather just get a room discount.

I also received a PIN yesterday. It was for $100 per night at a value?!?!?!? They are either crazy or know that I am already going on a Dissney cruise at that time. The rate doesn't even include theme park passes.

I'm glad to see your post. I was searching this site to see if maybe I was going crazy.

I was soooo excited to get my first pin code the other day then called and found out I would save $5/night at a value resort for my 3 night stay in early March.

What a complete disappointment.
