I worked our numbers today.....the regular DDP saves us about 15% over OOP.
I checked on the DX ddp, and any value on our "agenda" came from the mug and the snacks. As DVC members....that's just not enough value for me. Thats for us....we decided we REALLY don't want to commit to 3 TS meals per day, or more than 1 signature event, this trip. I think we might do it on a future trip (assuming it sticks around), when scheduling Hood De Doo AND a signature dinner. But even with a 2/1 ratio, we just barely hit break even (which was probably a sign of the fact we have LOTS of buffets and family style stuff on our agenda, and not much 'a la carte') over OOP costs. We didn't factor in the cost of the snacks and the mug, so THAT would have been our savings. About $8 per night, per person + the spread out cost of the mug (about $2 per night, per person, for our 6 night stay). I just don't see a lot of value in that 15% of the savings.....(10/70) in our situation.
