Hi Jessica,
Congratulations on your upcoming trip! The meal plans can be a good value if you plan on using all (or most) of your dining credits. If you are planning on bringing along (or picking up) some groceries to supplement what you purchase in the parks, I'm guessing you will better off dining a la cart. In addition, many of the portions served at both the counter service locations as well as at sit-down venues are huge, and certainly big enough to share. Finally, by purchasing meals on your own, you can engage in other money-saving tricks, such as having an appetizer for dinner, etc. If you feel like you will be purchasing most of your food at Disney restaurants, and will use all of your credits, then the plans make sense and are a good value. If either of you is a light eater, and you think some of my suggestions will apply, I'd go it alone! I hope you and your son have a magical Disney vacation together! Tanya
