Addonitis...make it stop!!

[Kathymford]

Symptoms:

• Constantly checking for new listings/promotions
• Checking DVC area of the DIS for new info
• Dreaming of ways to use more points
• Justifying how I can make a new budget work
• Thinking of new excuses to tell friends/family why I'm becoming an even bigger Disney freak

Prescriptions anyone??

Sorry, but even a 12 step program can't cure addonitis. It is the bad rash that almost clears up, but then comes raging back just before the big dance.

You must have missed the sign above the DVC door:
Abandon all hope ye that enter here.

Good luck.

If someone could just answer this questions for me....

If we bought 'enough points' at Animal Kingdom Villas -
then why do we now own at three OTHER resorts for a total of 4 home resort?

WHY?

While we hear other people proclaiming that they WILL buy point at the Grand Floridian, we are saying PLEASE DO NOT MAKE GFV's ATTRACTIVE TO US IN ANY WAY SHAPE OR FORM!!!!!!!!!!

Please do not make it 'different' than the other resorts, don't give it 'exclusive' access to anything, or special in any way. PLEASE, DVC - for the love of all that is good and holy - DO NOT make us WANT points!

In all reality, we have 'enough' points now to do just about anything we want, and have some spare points to bank.

I think once you reach the point of having to grab a calculator to figure out how many points you own, it really has gone far enough

Well, it may not be that bad - well, since we are being honest - yes, it is that bad!

I keep saying - Bring on the tiered benefits! I'm sure we're good for something! LOL

I just noticed your sigature says you've been a member since 2008. So you've added on 3 times since 2008??! I fear that will be me!! We've been members since 2010 and I already want more points!!

[HURRY! PAY YOUR 2012 DUES NOW! TAKE THE LUMP SUM OPTION, NOW!

We call it our yearly innoculation! It has worked so far!

It won't stop the fever, but it will keep the disease from progressing to a full blown add on.

Beware: September through the time you get the dues notice can be tough!

Paying our maintenance fees has worked to cure our wanting to add on.

I guess that will help. I always look at the dues in terms of monthly since that's how I pay at the moment...
