Post 66 TS credits + 44 Snack credits = Big EEK

I wasn't going to do the DDP because we would end up doing deluxe since we areTS eaters and I couldn't figure out how to come out a head. But with Free Dining, the upgrade to deluxe essentially gives this to the two of us for $58 a night after I divided the increase in our bill by 11 nights.

So, here we are with 66 TS credits + 44 Snack credits for two people for 12 days.

So far my plan is a TS lunch around 11:30 most days with a 2 TS dinner late enough that we will be hungry after our lovely lunch. But we've got two lunches that won't fall on DDxP when we do the Backstage tour and lunch with an Imagineer and one dinner, Victoria Alberts.

That makes using those 66 credits a bit harder. But, I'm not actually stressing over using them all because no matter what, it just takes using the snacks and one real meal to be ahead from paying $58 a day.

I'm more just suffering from whenever I contemplate 66 + 44. In-room breakfast service has never looked better.

But where I can plan out the TS meals, I'm kind of boggled about the 44 snack credits that will be in there somewhere. Anyone else done this and have any suggestions how to do this and still be able to fit in their car for the drive home?

Now that's my idea of a vacation!! We did deluxe last year with the free dining plan. We love to have table service meals and ate 3 each day. It was no hardship for us.
The snacks were a bit of a problem but we just loaded up with candy from Goofy's candy shop and Main Street Bakery before we left for home. The items we got were great for gifts for family members. Just bring an extra suitcase for your suvies and snacks for the ride home. You could also use some of the snacks for a light breakfast on some days.
Have a great time!

You can also use up some of your snack credits on bottled water and soft drinks in the parks. Mickey bars and frozen lemonade is refreshing and covered too. If you are late-night snackers, pick up munchie type food and drinks at your resort to take back to your room many are covered. Otherwise, as suggested stock up for the trip home.

We use our snack credits for bottles of water a lot or just Mickey bars. They can also be used to try a lot of little desserts like around Epcot that you never thought of trying before. You can always find something to do with snack credits!

That is an excellent idea! Oh, adding that to my list. I'm so glad I asked. Y'all have great ideas.

I always burn my extra snack credits in Goofy's candy company for the way home or the MK confectionery shop.

When we are on Deluxe we do some 2 TS credit meals and usually make lunch a CS. Any left over meal or snack credits we use for take home stuff like others have suggested.
ENJOY!!

I know you can convert CS to snacks - etc. Can you convert TS to CS or TS to snacks too? What is the ratio?

Daunting....yet tempting to try!!
