Trading in CS Credits

[JikoMarie]

We just figured out that we are going to have 2 extra CS credits each on our upcoming honeymoon. I know that you can trade in TS credits for CS credits but I was wondering if you can trade in CS credits for snack credits. How does this work?

 

[JikoMarie]

Anyone?

Clearly the system has changed since I last used it...

Never mind.

Normally Disney will give you two snacks for a CS credit. However, the will not give you a voucher the will simply just let you choose two snacks instead of your meal. Also with this you might be able to get 'snacks' that would could cost to much to be a regular snack option. This is allowed because under the CS credit you are generally allowed an entree, a side, a drink, and desert. They are majorly making out if you only get two of these items.

I would suggest using the CS credits as CS credits but only getting one meal at a time then you can share it as a snack for the both of you.

A CM in All Star Movies' food court said that 1 CS credit = 3 snacks.
We got a lot of snacks on our last day =)

This is what I heard as well. That's why I'm trying to clarify. Has anyone else been able to do this?

If we have leftovers, we certainly will.

From my understanding, for a short period during 2006, you could exchange a CS meal for 3 snacks, which they would even give you vouchers for so you did not have to use them all at the same time and place. However, (as I said, from my understanding) this option is no longer available, instead they are letting you get to 2 snacks at the same place for your one CS meal.

This is what I have seen from my own recent trip in mid-May and it has been on other discussion boards.

Sorry for the bad news, hopefully they will change it back... or maybe we have just been getting CM's who weren't quite sure what they were doing and the policy was never changed to begin with.

That's not bad news! That's great news. 2 snacks are better than wasting counter service credits. Thanks all for clearing this up.

Not sure where you are staying, but CS can be used for breakfast at many resorts and that can be a full meal to go. You could also use it for a late night snack meal, your road or plane food. Its already paid for and better than what you'd get travelling. If you're flying they won't let you bring a bottled drink through security, drink it on the way to the airport.

Congrats on the marriage!

what about 2 CS for 1 TS?

Does anyone know if you can trade 2 CS credits for 1 TS credit?

 

[JikoMarie]

I never thought about taking food to go. That's a great idea! We can take it to the airport. I'll keep the bottled drinks in mind though.

I'm not sure about trading CS for TS credits. Does anyone know?

I read on another board that this is not part of DDP (Trading CS to TS).
