Thank you for this video. I am headed to Disney world in November and I am watching all the videos I can because I am super excited. We are a group of 5 and staying Wednesday to Sunday. Great information.
Just to let you know, we went to Disney in February and got the Sleepy Hollow Waffle as a snack credit. It is amazing and I highly recommend them. The chicken and waffle sandwich is a QS meal just in case you wanted to know.
Fyi, even though they advertise it as free it certainly is not free. If you were to get a room only discount during that time period and buy your meals outright, you would end up saving yourself some money. If you were to have booked a non discounted room and added on the dining plan, sure, you would save yourself money. Nothing is free at Disney and Disney is usually offering some sort of savings during the bulk of the year.
Thank you! I have heard this from someone else as well. So do they inflate the room prices during free dining? Or are the discounted room rates just a much better deal? We have done discounted rooms in the past, but since we typically stay at value resorts, the savings haven’t been much. I know they give higher discount percentages to the moderate, and especially the deluxe resorts. Either way, we are excited to at least feel like we’re getting some free meals and snacks, even if it is “Disney math”, lol!
I often think it’s not worth it too, if the goal is to save money. We really liked it when we did it though, for the all-inclusive feel. We like to do it every once in a while as a treat ☺️

Thanks so much for the recommendations! The chicken and waffle sandwich sounds amazing 🤤. I’m going to have to put that on my list for our next trip
Thanks for sharing.

Quick service to snack change plus price increase is Chapek effect
Haha, we call him Bob Paycheck in our house 🤭
Not worth it, unless you are Home Simpson.
