I am looking at a loaded resale contract. My question is… is it easy to rent my points if not using them? There will be some years where we may not want to go to Disney.

Thanks for everyone’s input. Which do you think will have better resale value down the road? As I only see us owning for 15 yrs as we are older.

Wanting to purchase resale points. We are not super big planners so having the 11th month window isn’t a big deal for us. We live about an hour away and just want to use it a couple days here and there and when we have guest. I don’t really have a preference for a resort as I want to stay at...

I’m new to this. What’s white card?

Not sure if you are staying on site or not. But, we always found it nice to take a mid day break. So, we always brought a big cooler with us and filled it with sandwich meats and stuff. We would either eat a sandwich for lunch when we returned to the room or for dinner before returning to the...

We haven’t done this in a long time. But, we use to bring breakfast foods and the things needed for nice sandwiches. We always took a break mid day. So, we ate in the room for either lunch or dinner. And then headed back to the park after we rested.

We have finally decided on the resort we want. We are buying Animal Kingdom DVC Resale. We live just a little over an hour from Disney. I do want to be able to make a last minute reservation for a night here or there. Ok know that won’t happen during Christmas. But, what about Sept - Dec?

Cash is king!! My DD19 would prefer cash. It can be spent anywhere. Gift cards are good if you know where they like to shop. Also, it seems like a lot of times they leave a few dollars on the gift card, then never use it. So, its wasted money.

Christmas shopping will be easy for us this year. My DD19 doesn't want presents, she wants a trip. So we are going to NYC for a few days. Then she is off to go skiing with her boyfriend and we will continue on to New Hampshire. I will just buy small things that can go in a stocking.

Well, we have met him now. He has or can buy whatever he wants. Makes it that much more difficult. She's only 19 so can't purchase beer etc... I guess I could purchase it for her. I think she is just going to get him some type of sports jersey, he's crazy about sports.

Yes, makes sense. I found something on Pinterest. It's a bucket bouquet with lots of small bottles of alcohol and cigars. I told her she could also add a couple of coupons for stuff, like "I will make you pancakes." He's in a frat so I think that will go over well.

Thanks for the ideas!!! She was thinking concert tickets. He has already taken her to a couple of concerts. The problem is, he comes from $$$$ and we are just middle class. I told her to try and be creative, I like the experience idea. He likes just about everything that has to do with...

My DD's boyfriend is turning 21 next month. She has no idea what to buy for him. Looking for unique ideas. Any ideas would be helpful. She is on a budget.

Thank you!! Exactly! I did the same thing and I was older than 12. We would all go eat pizza after football games. If you were brave enough to get up and leave the table, your food and drink was fair game. We would put salt, pepper, hot peppers, whatever in your drink. Then, we all had a...

Wow, I am a teacher and while I totally support the teacher and clearly something must be done, I think it is harsh. They are 12 year olds. Of course I don't have all the details, but I don't think they were out to kill the teacher. More likely they thought it would be funny to see her...

My DD will be living off campus next year and will not be on a meal plan. How much money did you budget for groceries for your college student. Trying to get an idea of what is reasonable, not paying for steak! Lol!! A little more information, she will be living in a studio apartment by...

Thanks!!

Thanks for your replies, she's a freshmen at The Univ. of Arkansas. Sororities are BIG there.

DD thinks he wants to join a sorority. Any advice???

Isn't that the truth!! We have a 3600 square foot home. I am still trying to complete decoating it after 6 yrs. Now our DD is off at collegeand its just the two of us.. Time to downsize.
