Only speaking for myself (I have a normal sized appetite and a very sweet tooth!) we had loads of snack credits left over because we didn't snack in between meals. The portions were huge and in the hot weather we just were not hungry. We're not coffee drinkers so didn't use snack credits in Starbucks or for drinks as we didn't want to be drinking fizzy drinks all the day and instead were happy with the free park water and the Robinsons concentrate squeezy things we took with us.
Don't forget that under 3's eat off your plates so if you are going to buffets or platter service restaurants then your child isn't really sharing your food at all. |

I used all my snack credits last month but as I said, I used them mainly for cold drinks. I agree with all the food which was why I very rarely got any actual snacks - it would've been too much to eat and with the temperature being 35 degrees and upwards during my whole trip I was glad of all those Minute Maid Lemonades, including a few frozen ones . The snacks I did get were the ice creamy type, including the delicious Dole Float at MK - had a few of those. Plus I had a couple of Mickey ice cream bars and a rather delicious frozen banana from a little cart in Africa in AK.

Yes so you will have 28 on your room, plus I think although I'm sure an expert will correct me if I'm wrong QS and TS convert in to 3 snacks so as I said if you even have a TS or QS not used that's another 3 for two 6!
I must say I really didn't go hungry we also did a couple of signatures which are 2xTS credits and we did a couple of evenings at F&W we didn't want for anything as I said 2 days off site while at universal and the travel days help to bank a few credits

So do you days at universal whilst staying at Disney hotel? Never thought of that. We are wanting to take the inlaws etc to Kennedy and sea world/ universal/ and Busch gardens. So booked in at the doubletree Hilton seaworld again, stayed there last trip and was great, but split it with a week at Disney first followed by 9 days there.

Yes we just take an overnight bag, I did think of adding a couple of days on next year instead but will see when flights come out if that's doable as would like 2 nights really at universal/ioa next time but 1 night is fine as we check in early and with express passes we can do it in 2 days

We do a split between universal and Disney. But Disney is always the longest part and we usually include SW and DC days into our Disney days. So we always have meals and snacks left over from them. No such luck this year as we aren’t doing anything other than Disney and universal. Though I’m sure we will still have snacks left over!

Have enjoyed reading these tips, thanks all!
One tip I got from a US board is mole skin, great for your feet. We wear flip flops and really protects the soles of your feet on long part days, have also used it on my heals with trainers, avoided any harm 🙂 With regard to snack credits I recommend the cinnamon bun at Gaston’s and the ice cream covered funnel cake near Indiana Jones at HS, both good to share.
