Mobile Best take home snack credit.

What’s your top tip for take home snack credits? We have a week at universal after Disney so anything we can take and use for snacks there would be good. What’s the best value?

I don't know about best value, but we really liked stocking up on the trail mix for our offsite stay last time! My middle child particularly could have lived off it, it is a snack credit in a pack (with chip and dale on the front). They do different ones, but their favourite was the ones with fruit and nuts and m&m's in. They are really useful to throw in your bag for ride queue snack emergencies!

Another tip is to go to one of the resorts with a DVC element, their shops tend to have more food type items that are useful to take with you offsite as the DVC rooms have kitchens. This trip we're moving to a dvc rental so definitely hoping to stock up on some useful snack credits.

You could also get some croissants, cinnamon rolls, cup cakes etc in your last day to take for breakfast on your first day at Universal 😊

I agree with others suggestions. The Goofy Candy Co snacks (like Trail Mix, Goldfish etc) are a great option for carrying around Universal. Ghiradeli's not so much as it might melt. Also bottles of soda would be a good option but not really good value depends on which you would rather. I would also say try and get a couple of things like cinnamon buns for the first morning at Universal. The collossal one in Animal Kingdom lasted me 2 breakfasts as it was so large I just took a ziploc bag with me to the park and put half of it in there.

Ooh zip lock bags, good idea I wouldn’t of thought to pack them but that makes sense. If I had plenty left I’d sacrifice a couple for drinks for universal to but I’m not going to be ‘saving’ them just last time we had quite a few left.

Ghiradelli have changed their policy at Christmas so you could only buy the bars with your snack credits, so 3 bars for 2 snacks.
The Goofy gourmet jelly beans and v nice :-)

We used ours for presents for family - the Star Wars mint tins made lovely gifts as did the chocolate coins/goofy sweets for kids - My kids loved the Pandora Pod rice Krispie treat- its large- not for me personally but they loved it
