What would you do with $207 at WDW?

[JCMCM]

I'm usually a lurker, but have been thinking about this myself and realized I have all these awesome Disney experts I could consult so . . .

I currently have the HEA after fireworks dessert party booked for my party of three during Thanksgiving week. We've done the dessert party before and the reviews following the recent changes are underwhelming. So I'm on the fence about the party, as are so many of you. I may end up keeping it simply because we'll be there at a particularly crowded time (as we usually are since we're tied to the school schedule), but I've been trying to think of what I could "splurge" on with that $207 if we don't spend it on the dessert party. I realize "keep it in the bank" is the logical answer, but I say logical-smogical -- I wanna do something fun!

Any brilliant ideas? What would YOU do with that $207?

is it for you or you and your part of 3? if just you, SPA TIME!

How about dinner at the CG and then out to the observation deck to watch the fireworks?

I wish there was a "double like" for this! Guess I'll have to see how selfish I feel . . .

If you are into animals, I'd look at the Caring for Giants tour at AK. Only $30 a person so you'd have money leftover for something else!

If only 2 wanted to go MVMCP?
Dinner at CG, or Narcoossees and then watch fireworks?

I'd blow it all at Trader Sam's.

A tour (keys to the kingdom was amazing!) or a nice dinner for three at one of the resorts

You could also do a night where you splurge a little at disney springs and do a unique experience like characters in flight, the new star wars VR experience..something along those lines.

Boat for Illuminations
Wine at EPCOT
Put some on gift cards for the child/children and let them use it however they want - souvenirs/candy store - my family members used to give my children Disney Dollars - $50 back in the 90's - it was a small fortune to them. Now, I am missing those days
A massage
Character meal
Hoop Dee Doo
Rent a boat to pilot yourself

We did not think the HEA dessert party was worth the money. If you still want to do something special related to HEA, the obvious answer is dinner at California Grill with fireworks from the observation deck. We loved, loved, loved the Star Wars dessert party, so I’d put that out there as an option. If you’re willing to put that money toward another experience, I’d do the Ultimate Day of Thrills, but there are a lot of good tours within your budget. This is a really nice dilemma to have!

I will use it to book my next trip

A DISNEY Dooney and Bourke bag for myself!!
For that $$ it'd be a small but so what.

I'd spend it on a nice expensive meal like at Yachtsman I would also look into the AK special safari tour, which I've always wanted to try.

I also did not think it was worth the money. HOWEVER. The Illuminations Frozen Ever After Dessert party we thought was awesome and would do it again in a minute

Easy, a nice dinner for myself at California Grill.

Ride a segway in fort wilderness.

We saved $250 switching from a preferred room to a standard room and I was thinking of using it to get memory maker. We would also like to do one of the Animal Kingdom tours.

 

[JCMCM]

What awesome ideas! Many thanks to all!

You can rent a pontoon boat for a self guided ride for $45 per 30 mins...I do a one hour or an hour and a half ride
