View Full Version : Soft drinks
You can purchase a huge insulated mug for $10 in the water parks and that allows you to refill at the soda fountains all day long, any drink you want. We found this to be good value, compared to the size of drinks that were being sold there for just under $3.
Sandra
We always use this and you get very good value if the family don't mind sharing:)You can use it again if you go back on another day or to another water park, you just purchase another date stamp for it<img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle><img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle>

So if you only purchase the date stamp Ruth, is it any cheaper?
Sandra
Yes, it is I am sure. I can't remember the exact cost as I've not been since Christmas <img src=icon_smile_sad.gif border=0 align=middle> but will post again when we are over in 6 weeks time <img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle><img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle> We left our cup over in Florida to use again the next time <img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle> I wish they did this at all the parks as it saves a lot of money.

I've heard about these cups before, but I've never seen them for sale - Are that only at the entrance or can you get them at all the kiosks?
Caroline
I am fairly sure that you can buy them at all the kiosks.

These are often sold at the entrances to the Water Parks as well as at the kiosks. The price for the refills is $5 each day. They now have a much better system whereby rather than queueing for refills theres are drinks machines dotted around the parks where you swipe the bar code on your stamp and then fill your mug with ice and the drink of your choice.
We've just bought one of this mugs at the entrance to Blizzard Beach. We filled it about 8 times so a great savings. We have also left it at the villa to use next time.

Free drinks cups for kids - Blizzard Beach give a mini-Drinks cup with lid and straw with every kids meal. The children can keep these and take them away with.
Typhoon Lagoon gives a bucket and spade with their kids meals.

No, but you get your chips in a sharks head in Seaworld's Underwater Grill so anything possible in Orlando!!
As regards bar coding system to refill drinks, it is only in operation and Blizzard Beach so far - hope it doesn't take long to get to Typhoon Lagoon as it was so much easier than queueing and being ignored by the servers!!!!!
What is the cheapest way of getting drinks in the non water disney parks??
Do I recal l that your not supposed to take your own food and drink in?
if this is so do people take any notice of it ?
We always take our own drinks in, just in small bottles. There are loads of water fountains around
We also take our own drinks in, dont like the idea of the kids drinking coke all day long
We buy the fresh orange drinks etc and freeze them down, then when we go to the parks we fill
a cool bag with loads of these and squash, The kids moan but were not going to let them drink
nothing but pop all day long

yeah we usually fill up bottles with water it saves spending money on drink, plus drinking coke, sprite etc does'nt really help in that heat.

If you are visiting Epcot, there is a great place to get free (yes I said "free") soda. Visit Ice Station Cool, to the right hand side of the main fountain, as you walk towards the World Showcase Lagoon from the park entrance (It looks like a giant igloo).
You have to brave a few seconds of freezing artic temperatures to get to the main room inside, but once you do, there is a selection of around 10 drinks available to try free of charge, from countries around the world.
You have to try the melon drink from China. Yummy.
However, there is one drink (and I'm not going to ruin your fun by telling you which) that is a real toe curler.
Great for a quick thirst quenching break, without having to pay big bucks. [8D]
