Yea on all your points. I can only dream of an add on (although I think that Doug will love the BC this summer) so maybe he will let me someday.

So that is three contracts now, same or different use years... notice I did not even ask how many points, it would probably just convince me we are point poor!

Well, we will for sure try to stay in a 1br when Marc and I go in July. I'm also hoping for a fall trip. We really need to sit down and look at what we have to use in the way of points.

We started out with two contracts from Disney, one from Beach Club and one from Kidani. We then added on two small contracts one for each of those resorts through resale. Now are buying an additional Beach Club contract that is almost the same size as the original. Does that make sense?
In my opinion we have an insane number of points..... Don't tell my dh!
When we purchased the first two small add on contracts we weren't very smart and didn't get the same use year so it's a pain to figure out when we can use them. Member services is helpful with that.
This last contract is for the same use year as the other two large contracts...

I think you should have Doug get emails from the Timeshare Store. He might just decide that you need an add on.

congrats on your add-on!!! We're seriously considering adding on 100 more. We'll definitely do resale, unless DVC comes up with some amazing incentive! I'm still trying to figure out the best way to do it! I don't want to end up all confused with use year etc! Ideally I'd love VWL or AKV with the same use year!

We shall see...

Yep, that line feels pretty good to say until I'm reminded of the maintenance cost on all those points.

Just be sure that your add-on is for the same use year. Our two small ones weren't and it is a bit confusing. We have thought about selling those small amounts and re-buying some with a Feb. use year. We really like using the Timeshare store!

Actually we have offered those points to someone if we can't get closed quick enough for us to use them.
