In the past, Pop would not allow you to exchange your drink for another item on the DP. Is it still that way or have they changed that?
I think each resort (which ultimately operate as separate businesses) can make its own determination on 'bonuses' like substitutions.We did walk over to AoA a few times to do it, but in the end one of my pet peeves is when companies make illogical policies.
Of course they can, which is what they've done, but in my opinion it's illogical. Generally speaking a bottled drink costs them more to "give away" as part of their meal plan, than a side a fries or a cupcake/ice cream etc., so it's actually costing them more insisting that no one can sub for the drink and it makes the customer not as happy. To me that's dumb business and while they're free to do it, I'm free to be annoyed with it and take my business elsewhere. Like I said, just a pet peeve of mine when ppl./companies try to be difficult, just to be difficult.I think each resort (which ultimately operate as separate businesses) can make its own determination on 'bonuses' like substitutions.
Wow at Pop? They were insanely strict about it last year at this time. Maybe they figured out it was a dumb move on their part.We were there last week and permitted to get a snack instead of drink.
I think I had a nice CM - I asked him first before we selected our food if it was ok and then made sure to go in his lineWow at Pop? They were insanely strict about it last year at this time. Maybe they figured out it was a dumb move on their part.
please report back and let me know if they allow you we will be there in Dec and will be eating several quick service breakfasts there and it would be great to get a snack in place of the drink to take into the parks or something since we will have the mugs!I’m so glad to hear they are starting to let people get a snack instead of the drink. I’ll be there starting Friday and hopefully I can too.

That is great to hear! Thank you for the update and have a great trip!!We are here now, the cashier told us that we can exchange it for a dessert - not any snack credit but a dessert snack credit.
