What kind of free dining person are you...

[JimboJones123]

I didn't go last year so I couldn't book the bounceback.

I don't get PINs. I don't know why????

I don't have a Disney Visa.

I am waiting breathlessly for April!!!!

Please, let the discount come....

How about you?

I won't be getting it this August. My 40% of PIN gives me a much better deal than free dining ever could.

That wasn't an option, so I didn't vote :ROFLOL:

I am with Monty on this one. After 3 years of free dining in HOT September I did the 40% off and am going early December.

 

[kimmychad]

we booked with the bounceback offer in sept and the 40% off in dec!

 

[PoppinsFan]

We booked using a free dining pin we received for the end of August. Not a time of year we had planned on going (we usually go in mid May) but didn't want to pass on the free dining.

I wasn't planning on going back until Dec 2010, since we just went this past December, but then I got the free dining pin code, so I couldn't not go this year! We are heading back down for a short 5 nights at the end of September. Now that I am going in September, hoping to use the bounceback offer for my Dec 2010 trip. See, I'm saving money all around! :ROFLOL:

We went in December and hoped to book this year's trip with the bounceback offer, but they didn't have any december dates yet....

Very frustrating. Hoping for a pin code.

:sohappy:we get the dinning plan discount or not, my family and i think its the best thing disney has ever done. but we did use the buy 4 get 3 promotion to upgrade to the beach club for our may trip this year. dinner ressies already made and counting down 85 days and we are back.:sohappy:

We don't get to go during that time period. We're teachers so school is back in session by then. This year, in addition to school, we have a whole new reason to stay home. Our first baby is due during the free dining period. :sohappy:

With the economy not doing so well, and hours being cut at work... we don't know how well off we will be in April/ May? But, we have saved some to go and if the Disney VISA card, or other promotion gives free dining, that will definatly make up our minds for us! :slurp:

just curious monty, where do you stay at that the 40% gives you a better discount than the free dining?

I have free dining for dec at AS music and I would much rather have free dining.

This August we're at Beach Club with Water View. Instead of $410/night rack rate I'm paying $277. That's actually not even 40% off, but it's still a savings of $133/night. On our best binge-eating WDW-style, Morgan and I can't eat an average of $133/day when we use the Tables in Wonderland card, so free dining just wouldn't be worth considering.

Where do you get this 40% pin code?????

Where do you get this 40% pin code?????

1 of 2 ways I believe, either a bounceback offer from a previous trip or I received an offer via mail. It's all at random who gets the codes.

 

[DisneyGigi]

We booked the bounceback but had to cancel. Then we were lucky enough to get the discount code too but still can't go at that time unfortunately. I am praying that they offer it in April with extended October dates because that will be my only chance to get to go this year if not we are probably going to have to wait until February 2010....

Where do you get this 40% pin code?????

I got an email offering 40% off selected dates in 2009. It matched the dates I'd already booked.

I've since received another for $594/adult based on double occupancy including tickets for 5 nights/6 days at a Value for some March/April dates with a US$500 gift card when you book.
