UPA — Great suggestions! Regarding offsite, we mention in the podcast that heading just a bit outside of the gates brings you to plenty of lower-priced chain restaurants that can offer a break for your wallet.

Some of the tips (sharing, prioritizing bites) seem to fall under the eat less food category which applies universally instead of getting more bang for your buck.

What offsite places do you guys recommend?

Other suggestions:
– Similar to offsite, you could do a few meals in your room. Breakfasts might be the most convenient, and you can get groceries through Garden Grocer or sometimes a grocery run is included in the car service.
– Offsite meals are even more of an option at DL, where decent options are within easy walking distance.
– Free samples: Ghiradelli, does Boudin in DCA still give out bread cubes?
– Connect with the non-Disney restaurants for special offers or discounts: Earl of Sandwich’s email list, Cava’s twitter feed
– You can buy meal vouchers for DL character meals that can save a few bucks, especially in peak season. (vouchers include tax/tip)
