Tables of wonderland

[Mother of 5]

Just wondering if anyone has ever done tables in wonderland we are staying off property for our next trip so we can't do dining plan and wondering if it is worth the price

It costs $100 if you have an AP. The break-even point is $500 in dining costs, after that you're saving 20% on all TS meals including alcohol. It can also be used at a number of bars around property.

Worth is based on how much you spend while you have it. It's good for up to ten people on the same bill.

I haven't even thought about Dining Plan in years, even when it's "free". TiW is much better for me for the way I eat/drink.

I think of it as free tips after I spent $500. In a 4 day trip with my niece we spent $500 easy. I'll use again in June and it will be gravy then but 'Ohana is blacked out when I'm there

The new restrictions make it slightly less awesome (V&As no longer accepts), but it still can be a very good deal. If your restaurants are on the accepted list, and you are eligible to purchase (Fl. Res, AP or DVC), and you estimate to spend more than $500 at the accepting restaurants, it's a no brainer. But it's mostly TS restaurants (a few exceptions like AK and resorts that have no TS) so you do need to run the numbers. But for a party of 4, I can easily see spending $80+ per dinner, so 6ish dinners would be a safe breakeven point. Even less if you drink, or want apps/desserts, etc. Anything past that is pure savings. They are good for 13 months so if you can plan 2 trips before it expires the second trip is usually pure savings.

I have decided to purchase TiW since we are now DVC members and have 3 trips scheduled this year. I think it will definitely be a money saver for us, although I'm going to look at the calculator posted above to reassure myself.
