You can use these anywhere in the park but they will not give you change back. So our family doesn't do character meals so we order up to the $45 value and use one at a time. For example, we are a family of 4. We'll use one for a breakfast, lunch, and dinner and then one more meal while we are there. You can use them at the table services restaurants too like Blue Bayou. They'll just discount your bill by $45 and you'll pay the difference.
