Does anyone know how much I might save with an AP at the DLR during that time? I might get one for DS for Christmas if it's worthwhile. Thanks for any help and input. Also, does anyone have Willie's email - I seem to have lost it.

Frankly, I' very surprised they even have availability. I wouldn't get an AP hoping for better rates at DLR that week. Instead, I'd look at whether you are going to go back within 12 months and if you'd save much with the 10-15% discounts on food and merchandise (depending upon store and AP level).
