Some thoughts:
**Most places did not charge us extra for our DD2 to have a drink. The only place we had to pay for it was Le Cellier. At Coral Reef, since I only had water, our waiter put her milk as my drink.
**We used snacks for: water, powerade, pretzel, frozen lemonade, OJ, Root Beer, Peanut Butter Fudge Cookie w/ toppings and all & Rice Krispie Treats @ Goofy's Candy Co., Choc. Chip Ice Cream Sand @ Main Street Bakery
**Enjoyed the Dining Plan very much....lots of food! I don't think the servers treated us any different for being on the plan. It was usually one of the first things they asked us and then they would explain what we could get w/ it.
