New food offer at the Point!

I'm interested to see what the participating restaurants are going to be.

I clicked on the "buy now" tab and it stated these participating places. Lakeside Express, Pinks, Corral, Coasters, Roundup, Gristmill Refreshments, and Dragons Inn.

It's a good thing you did that Frito Joe. I was just asking on Facebook If Panda Express was part of that deal and they haven't messaged me back yet. Maybe it's only for the quick restaurants?

I don't think Panda Express or Chick-Fil-A do the discount things since they are part of a national chain.

This sounds good if you spend all day at the park, but most of the time, I go up and ride my favorite rides and I'm out in less than 6 hours. But I do get souvenir cups for the 99 cent refills.

It looks like the single meal deal was also revised. The deal was over $15 last summer. I wonder if multiple people can use the full day meal deal or if it is a wristband.

When you click to buy it gives more details- it also says its a wristband.
Meal Choices include- Cheeseburger Combo, Colossal Dog Combo, Chicken Finger Combo, Perch Combo, Cheese on a Stick Combo, Hot Dog on a Stick Combo, Specialty Dog Combo, Bacon Chili Cheeseburger Combo and Pizza Combo. Soft drink not included with All-Day Dining Plan
Price $32.16

This is an awesome idea for letting the kids run loose in the park, without needing to find them to make sure they eat

I think the All-day deal would be much more appealing if beverages were included.

um...$30? Nah, I'll pass.

Actually, maybe if Bay Harbor was included.....(HA!!)

If beer was included...

^ Winner!

It's a good deal if you plan to eat all day in the park. I mean I always have a Hot Dog On-A-Stick each trip but I think the are close to $4 now, so that means I'd have to eat 8 in a day to make it worth it. I'm not Kobayashi.

Initially I thought it was a good deal but if no drink is included, not so much. I personally like to get a couple of things and stash a few subs and beers in the cooler in the car. The beer is much cheaper there!

90 minute wait between meals. So essentially you could have "Mom" or a non-rider purchase the All Day Meal plan and the entire family could eat all day?

How so? Well, "Mom" get's her first free meal at 11am and chows it down herself. Yum. That was tasty.

Now, at 1:30pm she gets a meal for 'Dad'. Mmm, that hit's the spot.

3pm, she get's a meal for Johnny.

4:30pm, poor Suzy is starving, but she finally gets her free meal from mom.

6pm, Dad get's his 2nd meal cause he can't wait.

7:30pm, Mom feeds Johnny next cause he's impatient like his dad.

9pm, Mom gets a meal and shares it with Suzy. Suzy could stand to lose a few pounds anyway.

10:30pm, Mom gets the last free meal and eats it while Dad, Johnny, & Suzy are waiting to ride Maverick.

The only way this works, "Mom" doesn't ride anything. She is able to wear the wristband and get the meals through out the day because what else was she doing any way?

Remember the motto: They have to eat?

$30 for the whole family's meals = A GOOD DEAL!!
(just takes a little preplanning....) ;)

Edited to add: ;) winky face.

Genious Detroit. Pure genious!

Three people watching the fourth person eat the "free" meal sounds like a fun way to spend the day.. ;)

Why can't mom ride? That really has nothing to do with wearing a wrist band to pick up food.

I already see this being abused as listed above..I mean ethically it's kinda wrong to get this and abuse it..kinda like the drink wristbands a few years ago, but it's going to happen, I mean hell it even went through my mind.

^As noted above, it really isn't that easy to abuse. I really doubt that there will be many families of four who will try and squeeze 6 meals out of the band. Even so, the price is high enough where the park will at the very least break even.

The wristband in 2009 was $7.99, so it isn't that much different from guests buying a souvenir cup for $9.99 and getting free refills the first day.

I guess..but the park is advertising it as 30 dollars per person, not 30 dollars for your family of four, or three of your best friends.

I mean poor analogy at best but I think it gets the point across: You don't buy a platinum pass, and pass it through the fence to your buddy in line to get him in. Same kinda thing to an extent.
