I Really Should Know This, But I Have A Question

OK - I know there are no dumb questions - but this one is.

I don't pay much attention to the Disney Specials, because we're DVC members and we don't do the Dining Plan - so what I want to know is - is there a time limit for the free dining? I mean, is it so many months and then it's over - because I REALLY don't want to go during Free Dining. Is there an end to this - or is it basically forever?

(Yes, I know I should know this - but I don't.)

Re: I Really Should Know This, But I Have A Question

It is something like Aug 24th - Sept 20th. I may be a few days off. I have used DVC points before and we still get the dining plan.

Yup! There might be some overspill into early October but for the most part it's September.
Don't worry..if they don't apply to me I rarely pay attention to discount either

Oh, I don't WANT the dining plan - I just want to be miserable and selfish and not be there when everyone else is.

Well, we're very special - why should we be bothered by other people?

Twin minds think alike, chere llama.

Naturally, I prefer the Stealth Mode of parkgoing.

Yes, you CAN avoid free dining....

Re: I Really Should Know This, But I Have A Question

Being new to DVC can you even get free dining with points? How would that work. Also does any one know if you checked in on the 20 if you could get free dining for your entire stay?

THAT I know the answer to. No, you can't get free dining if you're DVC.

Re: I Really Should Know This, But I Have A Question

The free dining is from 8/24-9/20. I will be going back again (after my May trip) after it ends. I won't fight the extra crowds for it. Spoiled.
