I was curious about the math. So I looked at the menus and just picked what I would order, based off the original restaurants (not my suggestions for improvement). I didn't pick the most expensive things, just what I would actually order. These were my numbers. Usually even more in favor for the dining plan when I consider my steak loving husband or character meal loving DS.
$504.73 (tipping 20%) tax is 7%? total $540 for these meals, using 9 out of 12 credits.
$119 for the dining plan each night is $476.
So the "value" is already $64 above the cost of the plan...and there are 3 more credits to use (at Tusker House, please at Tusker House!) AND snack credits (fancy Starbucks coffee, caramel apples/popcorn to take home from Germany in Epcot). I just see this working out very well for you OP.
Make sure to add the tips for the DxDP. To me,OP, maybe the DDP+ would be a better option
