I was worried about how we'd cope - we didn't have a car so no option to go off-site for meals or anything. But we managed very well. We're not drinkers so not having to buy alcohol helped. And we prefer the flexibility of quick service meals anyway, so only booking 3 table service meals helped keep the cost down.

It's definitely doable - although I was aiming for around $70 a day I wasn't keeping track at the time and didn't really think we'd manage it. We weren't actively watching what we bought or trying to cut back - we always picked whatever we wanted off the menu regardless of price, if we wanted a snack we'd buy a snack, we didn't share things which were shareable if one person wanted a different flavour etc...
Yes we found some bits in Walmart quite expensive this time. We got some fruit for breakfasts and that was really expensive 🙁

We like QS options too for the flexibility and are used to having the QSDP, so that's what we'll mainly be doing too.
The thing I'll miss most is eating our way around the world at the F&W festival without snack credits Previously we've just tried anything we fancied at pretty much every pavilion, but I think we'll have to be a bit more selective this time. Love Blaze Pizza and know that we'll be visiting there fairly regularly!

Agree about the F&W booths! We went through the menus beforehand and made a list of 5 or 6 things we really wanted to try. But we weren't feeling well on the day we did World Showcase so only ended up getting a few anyway.

Enjoyed your post. Thanks for doing it. Helps to know the price of things before you go to help you budget. Will be definitely going to Gideon's for a cookie! We love the Big Pink donuts too. I think I could eat one by myself.

Some fantastic QS meals there, you sure didn't skimp on snacks yet the overall bill wasn't too eye watering. A fab read this evening. Thanks so much for sharing.
