So there was no temptation to buy it. The package was cute though, comes in a little Goofy's Kitchen folder. FYI-the photo pass cards Do Not work at Goofy's kitchen. We asked & they said that they are a different company so they can't put those pics on the card.

Originally Posted By hopemax > They are already printed so you really want them This is what gets me. The process of taking and printing the photos is so cheap they can do it for all guests even though they know a bunch will be thrown away. But if you want it it's $30. I've taken to when they drop off the photo so you can look at them, I take a picture with my digital camera. Then when they come back over to ask if you want them, I hand them back over.

Everytime we have gone to Goofy's we have purchased the pictures and it's a bit annoying to wait around for them to be printed, if there's a large group waiting it blocks the walkways. It's so much easier to have them delivered to the table! Good on them for trying new things!

Originally Posted By junglejoy When we at there, almost two weeks ago, we were given the photos for taking a survey.

I always like options and not having things forced on me. And it was nice to get the photos for free because we never would have bought them. My youngest DD looked awful...

The omelets they make are really good.

Originally Posted By bobiascastle We have been going for about 4 years now & every time the menu is the same. Kids foods- Pizza, Hot Dogs, PB&J Pizza, MacNCheese, Spaghetti...

DESSERT & here is where is gets good- Ice Cream bar, Fruit bar, & anything else you can imagine... Cheesecake, Mousse, Tarts, Brownies, Bread Pudding, Cookies EVERYTHING IS DELICIOUS!!! "Do you know how long this promotion is going on?" My guess is this is how they will be doing it from now on. You can always take pics with characters in front. The reason I don't bother buying their pictures is because my kids are use to me in their faces with a camera that I usually get a way better picture. Where as when a stranger is taking it they tend to not look at the person. I have bought them before but on most cases I get a better picture so why pay for a bad one.

Originally Posted By trekkeruss I have to say I am a bit put-off by the photo pack, just because I think the price is outrageous; high enough that it makes me think of the word fleecing, as opposed to making me think they are offering a valuable service. I peg it at about $10 too high.
