Inspired by the currently running thread "What do you think is the average number of points owned by a DVC member?" where most suggested a poll was in order so I figured I'd create one...
We have 225 at BLT. We tried to buy enough to stay in a 1BR for one week per year and decided that his amount gave us a good amount of possibilities. Now we will be going THREE times this year, so an add-on may be in our future if this trend continues.
We have 325 at OKW. I'd like to add another 25 in the same use year there so that they can be evenly divided between our girls, but that's sort of a small number to find available.
We started out small. We bought a 30 pt BWV last year and later added on another 30 pts, so we currently have a total of 60 pts. We will add on in small increments as we can afford to pay for them cash.
160 blt
50 vgc
and I'm a little jealous of people who have the $$$ for more points and the vacation time to use them! Maybe someday I'll have gobs of both...
That was some decision! We first looked in 1996, and had to come up with a number of points to buy, I was totally lost. How on earth did one decide vacation habits? That was before I found the internet, knew about add ons, whatever. I just got a headache back then, and forgot about DVC. If I could have just decided, we needed 1000...close to what we have now (930), it would have been so easy.
I do admire you.
