Dining plan payment plan?

So when we go on our anniversary trip in January of 2014 this will be the first trip that will be up to us to plan and pay for. In the past we have paid for our airfare and park tickets but have never had to pay for our food. I know i have heard people on here mention that they have done payment plans and what not for things so I was wondering if there was a payment plan option for the dining plan and how far out you could start paying on it? I know the prices change each year so it probably wouldn't be an option until the announced the prices for 2014.

As a DVC Member I now have to pay in full for my dining plan at the time I add it to the reservation.

So I did a rough calculation and if we put aside 40 dollars a month between now and when we go in January 2014 we will have enough money to pay for the dining plan....LOL

I'm going in July as well, but we're staying in our timeshare off-property. Since we couldn't do a dining plan, I made our ADR's and we're prepaying for each meal every two weeks.

Jess, for just a few more saved dollars per months you could get the deluxe plan. I came up with you saving around $55 per month till your anniversary trip.

Yeah we had thought about doing the deluxe dining plan but we aren't breakfast people so we didn't think it would be worth doing... Cause the food on the regular dining plan is more then enough
