add on addictions!!! I need help!

[perdy1234]

So we decided to add on another fifty points at BLT this am. When we origianlly bought in a year ago at ssr we thought we would never add on. Well a year later we have added on twice already and i am pretty sure we aren't done yet. How addicting this can be. Are there any help groups out there for DVC addon addicts

You really don't want to know....

DVC_Mike is the last guy you want to consult you on addonitis! I haven't heard from him in a week or so...so he probably added on again!

It is very bad I bought in a little over a year ago and I have added on 4 times already. I originally thought I would stay in a studio but after staying in a 1 bedroom to use up developer points I never want to stay in a studio again, so I added on.

We just added 50 points, having only just bought into DVC this past May...now we have enough to subsidize/treat other families to stay with us (2 bedroom 'lockoff') during our twice yearly DL pilgrimages. Yes, it's almost like paying people to be our friends, but we don't mind. The families we travel with get a great deal, and we are at least covering our maintenance fees for the year!

We are DVC members since 1992 and have added on 10 times since then. I think the cure is college tuition

Okay, I've got 7 years before college, so I better add on now!

I added on contract #23 in early June, contract #22 in early April, contract #21 in early November...

Each time, I thought it would be my last!

DVC has stopped giving bags with add on's but prior to that how many did you end up with ?

I can't speak for Mike's situation, but we have about 15 contracts (on #20, but there were a few re-writes and one sale).

Anyway, we really only added on about six times. Sometime when adding on you opt to break a larger amount of points into several small contracts, so even though you may get four 50 point contracts, I look at that as one 200 point add on.

Anyway, the bags..
When we first purchased the bags were much different. We have a few of those hanging around somewhere.
The newer bag is much more generic, like any other canvas bag that Disney sells for $10 when you make a larger purchase.
When we added at VGC the guy from QA gave us a new bag even though he wasn't suppose to.
After all, we needed something to carry six contracts worth of paperwork..

We received a bag (or other gift) with each add-on except the two this year. MY DW uses the tote bags for all sorts of things around the house, so I'm sure of the exact count.

we added on 100 points at BLT on the cruise-no bag

do they ever offer deals fro adding only 50 points-I think we need more at BLT?

Right now, they are giving $5.00 per point discount for 50 - 99 points at BLT. It had been $8.00 off but that ended June 15th.

It is just that simple, I know it, my hubby knows it, our kids know it..........

Hello my name is Ninette and I am a Disney Vacation Club points add on addict. OK I said it, admitting it is the first step to recovery
