WL vs Free Dining
OK, I don't know why I can't get staying at WL out of my mind, but where do you stand on this...
11 nights at POFQ (10 with Free Dining) vs 7 nights free dining at POFQ then final 4 nights at WL hopefully with AP discount. Let the banter begin!!!! & thanks!!

Re: WL vs Free Dining
As much as I love WL, I love saving money even more! I'd say stick with the free dining and use that extra cash for some souvineers! I would include a trip over to WL one night for dinner at the Whispering Canyon and then maybe spend a some time rocking in the chairs by the fire, and then playing a few games in the Iron Spike room over at the Villas.....

Re: WL vs Free Dining
Hmmm, since you are in for a long trip I would go for the WL!

Re: WL vs Free Dining
The WL is supernice but I am also a super bargain lover. Several times I have started to plan a trip with the intent at staying at a deluxe but then I realize I could stay longer or do other things if I stay at a moderate so I always change my mind.
I say stick with the free dining and PO.

Re: WL vs Free Dining
I love love love WL, but I think I'd go for the cheaper option, with free dining. That way, you don't have to move either. It seems like a better choice.

Re: WL vs Free Dining
Another vote for PO with free dining...that's too good a deal to pass up!
