Hi Sandra! Thanks so much for sharing your questions with the Disney Parks Moms Panel!
It sounds like you and I vacation very much the same way! From personal experience this very morning, I can tell you there currently are small packets of peanut butter at the
Resort hotel quick service locations. (My son and daughter enjoyed a yummy breakfast at
Contempo Café at
Disney's Contemporary Resort.) I will add that we also packed a small jar of peanut butter so we would have it if needed. (My husband used it one time during our vacation.)
Great news! You absolutely can use a
Disney Gift Card for gratuities. We just used Disney Gift Cards to pay for several items during our vacation. I love purchasing them throughout the year. I combine them into one or two gift cards and use them while on vacation. It's such a great way to help me budget for my
Walt Disney World Resort vacations! If you happen to leave your Disney Gift Card in your room, no worries. Simply charge the gratuity to your room folio using your
MagicBand and then ask the front desk to apply your Disney Gift Card to your room charges when you return to your Resort hotel.
Your vacation is planned for a fabulous time of year! As I'm sure you may know, the Force will be strong at
Disney’s Hollywood Studios with the opening of
Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge on August 29, 2019. Plus - the
Epcot International Food & Wine Festival is scheduled for August 29 - November 23, 2019. Oh my goodness! I'm so excited for you! You are going to have an amazing time!!
