Like many posters before me, I, too, believe that part of the "Disney magic" is the dining experiences you can have. Therefore, I figure that directly into my vacation budget. Since I am an obsessive planner I know exactly where we will be eating and a very closely estimated cost for each meal. I do this months before we ever set foot on Disney property. For example, we are eating at the Liberty Tree Tavern for one of our evening meals and I already know that the cost will be roughly $100. I have done this for every single restaurant we plan to eat at. I also add maybe $100 for those impulse buys (DD LOVES Mickey Bars!!).
Between the time I started planning and our departure date I go to the nearest Disney Store and slowly purchase Disney Dollars for my meals. This week I might only have $20 but that's ok. That's $20 closer to the total needed. By the time we leave I will have Disney Dollars to cover the entire amt for my food costs.
