We have platinum passes,... Do Carowinds refillable cups work at other Cedar Point parks, and does something like a Kings Dominon refiillable cup work at Carowinds?
First visit this season I asked this very question ("if I bring you a Kings Dominon cup to refill will you?") and the drink stand people all said "I don't know" and even at customer service at the main gate they didn't know.
The didn't even know if they would refill past year's cups, of which we have 2.

Does anyone know or have experience with other CP parks cups or other years' cups working?

I have a cup from 2006 that they still refill. Heck, it still says Paramount Parks on it, lol.

I would say bring what you have. Chances are they won't pay enough attention to see if the cup is from this year or last. I've never been turned away.

Last years cups were all the same as 2007. I didn't look last weekend when we were there if they still had the other cups at the stands. If they do, then they will refill them. If not, then they may have overturned their stock. BUT, they will refill water for free.
I might get one of the new Cobra cups anyway, especially if they refuse to refill an old one. But like the above post, they probably wouldn't pay enough attention.

We carried our Carowinds Mugs to KI, KD, CP and DP, and all refilled them, no questions asked and a couple were Paramount Mugs at that. We have a couple of the big Maverick Mugs that we've had refilled at Carowinds... so I would say, No Problem, unless things have changed of recent. Always thought I might bring in a Busch Gardens or Six Flags mug to see if they would refill it... but haven't tried... yet...

Dude, my wife and I switched passes last year for Scarowinds just to see if they looked at them, they didn't catch it. I would say your chances are good on them refilling a Busch mug. :D

About the cups: Took the family out Sat night, of course forgot our cups like usual. I did see they had the purple Scooby Doo mugs and the green Spongebob mugs from last year for sale, so there is no way they would know if you bought them last year or not. I don't see any problems in getting old mugs refilled.
