It's complicated and the answer depends on the following variables :

Is the DVC / AP discount available at your chosen restaurants for the meal you have chosen as some are lunch only.

Do you order alcohol most/some/none of the time?

We order cocktails & wine at most dinners so TIW is a no brainer for us still but if you don't the break even spend gets complicated to assess against the (free) 10% with the other options.

As above if you like a alcoholic drink with your meal the discount is good. Break even point is about $750 on meals I think. If you're doing two trips (or more &#128580 in a 12 month period then I think it's worth it. Also adds the tip so stops all the messing around.

There is a great discount table on allears.net that may help you decide, it shows all the different restaurants and what they take.
As both posters above say, $750 is break even and it depends on where you are eating.

Given virtually every table service restaurant has 10% DVC discount (if you qualify with blue card), break even is generally a lot more than $750. We don’t drink that much alcohol, so ours would be nearer $1300 which I won’t spend. Purely a mathematical calculation as to worth it or not.

Yes in a 14 day trip I suspect you’d really struggle to get the money back Ali.

Going for 3 weeks yourkshireT but we eat at some of the nice restaurants at dr Philips Roy’s and seasons 52 so only have about 6 Disney ones booked over the 3 weeks which I think most we can use the dvc card or the AP
Always had the table in wonderland card but not the AP

Ali. It may still work out ok for you as if you time it right you can get 13+ Months validity on it so it would cater for next year as well.
Going to be a tight run thing though to recoup the $150
