Sorry to bite off of Dizzy over Disney's thread - but I thought that post would make a great poll - Im not sure if this has been done before - if it has - sorry.

So - How many points do you own ??

We have 150 points @ SSR and love every one of them.

Adonitis is just starting to hit us - but we haven't needed the extra points yet as its just the two of us.

Started with 150 at SSR. Jumped into AKV the first day it was on sale:cool1: for another 100.

We've found the 250 we have is just about right. Always tempting to add on, though. Maybe another 50 at some point, who knows? :confused3

We have a total of 350 points ...3 contracts! Originally purchased 150 points at BWV, then wanted to add more and at that time BW was sold out, so we added 100 BCV points just across the water, and then when BWV opend up more points we added another 100 points there ...so total 100 BCV and 250 BWV points! We LOVE and use everyone of them too!

We have 1,000 across 5 resorts with no immediate plans to add-on any more.

We have 560 total, 300 at VWL and 260 at AKV. This will be our comfort level for a while, I think.

610 total, 300 SSR, 150 AKL, and 160 BLT, all of the points are divided into two contracts per location. That way we can give them to the boys easily when they get older.

We always wanted 600 total, but we bought 160 at BLT to get the tile. So that tile cost us $1070 dollars. I could have of re-tiled my bathroom for that much.

150 at BCV, I shoulda bought more. :lmao:

With regret - only 100 SSR. DH wasn't at all keen so I bought them with a legacy left to me. However on our first trip to SSR in October, he loved the BLT model and is happy to consider buying here. Only downside is the pound to dollar exchange rate is really poor now and we might have to wait . . . . .

100 at BWV -- I'd love more points but its not in the cards currently.
(I've even changed my status to reflect that temptation...) ;)

210 OKW, Favorite Resort!

I could really use about a hundred more but I don't want to pay anymore maintenance!

We currently have:

100+60= 160 SSR (Feb)
100 AKV (Aug)

Planning to added 100 - 140 GC once they go on sale.

We have 200 at SSR and 100 at AKL = 300 total and have NO problem using them. :lmao:

This is interesting. It ties into the discussion of having extra benefits for those with large investments in DVC. It looks like ownership starts to drop off after 600 or so points. So maybe the this 'club' would be around 700?? That would be about 2 weeks in a 2 bedroom in Dream season. I'm sure our sample is not the same as the whole population of DVC members but it gives an idea of the distribution. The DIS, I would guess, has more heavy hitters and would skew the curve to the high end.

For us, we have 550 (300BCV, 150VB, 100AKV). Really don't need any more and perhaps have too many ....but really want VWL (we travel during school breaks and need home field advantage)

We started with 150 SSR points. We have since added on two 100 point contracts at SSR for a total of 350.

We own 480 total.

We own 360 points (2 contracts) at AKV.

We have 225 at BLT. We figured that this would be about right to allow a one week stay in a one bedroom at most of the locations that we were interested in. Since we only recently purchased, we will have to wait and see if our logic pays off.

I tend never to have enough! I am already using points from next year so next year is almost gone. I would love to add on to the new Contemporary resort. That's my goal when we are there in next year.

We have 100 at VWL. I keep saying we are going to add on some day.

Two SSR contracts (180/70) and one BLT (100) for a total of 350.

We started with 150 at OKW in 2000. We now have 1045 points spread out at OKW,VB, HHI, SSR, and AKV. You can never have enough points! We use DVC as our 2nd home (retirement home).:goodvibes

We have 100 points at VWL. Seriously considering a 50 point add-on at BLT before the deadline, but I really like the price and points chart at OKW.

We have 100 points at AKV. DH is not a big Disney nut so my plan is to take my DD's for 5 nights in a studio using about 50 points, then bank the rest. The next year, DH can come and we'll get a 1BR.

Right now, the girls are a little too young for me to take by myself. I think I will wait until they are 6 and 8. That's only 3 more years...but we have our points allocated for trips until 2012!:lmao:

Maybe an add-on will happen, but I doubt it. The cost to get to WDW is very prohibitive for us.

225 @ AKV (175 w/ two 25 pt. add-ons)

Would like to eventually add another 175 at AKV to leave each child 200 pts. later.

We currently have 160 points at AKV, but plan to add on (exact number of points will depend on what the minimum requirement is and what our financial situation looks like by then) when the Grand Californian becomes available.

Started with 150 pts in 2002. Then addonitis kicked in. We added 175 pts , then 100pts , then last year another 100pts .

ILIKEWDW
12-12-2008, 11:03 AM
We have 250 at BLT (recent purchase) and looking for 100 at GCV (hoping we could have founder status).

Seriously talking add-onitis is easy to get. Even when you where so sure that few points would be the only you would need.............. and then, a new option appears :lmao:

I also like AKV but I would not buy in a non MK area resort, so GCV is better for us!!!! and gives us the option to altern from WDW to DLR :thumbsup2

250 at SSR. Thank you friends and family promo!

Started off with 160 points and then did an add on of 50 points (both at AKV) before our first visit as DVC members.

12-12-2008, 05:11 PM
We have 100 at AKV and plan on adding around 75-100 at VGC depending on the charts. That should be more than sufficient for us since we only do one 3-4 day trip to DLR every year and only plan on WDW once every 3 years at most.

Also we actually like sharing a room with our two DD's since for us it is a family immersion bonding experience and only for a few days. We also don't plan on doing any cooking or laundry.

We have 325.
225 at the Boardwalk-that's plenty, and we bank some every year.
100 at Hilton Head-wish we had bought 25-50 more, as we have to borrow each year. We skipped our HH trip in 2007 and banked those points, so we're sitting pretty points wise for now..but I still wish we had that extra 25 points.

I have 150 at VWL and 150 at BCV. My two children can fight over which contact they want when I die :lmao:

I might do an add on soon, so I will wait and vote accordingly.

390, all at BWV. Ultimately, I'd like another 50-60 at BWV. I'll get there one day!

12-13-2008, 06:57 PM
We have 160 at AKV just right for us, though we would like to add on at Hilton Head.

12-13-2008, 07:10 PM
We have 740 and still want more :laughing:

405 AKV and 335 HHI

hopefully future will be Hawaii and Beach Club ;) If the economy ever gets better.:wizard:

I love my ownership - 150 at SSR and 52 at BCV. When I'm older I think I'll probably buy more at BCV or BWV. I like not having to take the bus and having the restaurants around the world so close by.
