CFW incentives improved overnight

[Robclint734]

It looks to me Disney bumped the cabin incentive up a bit. For 150-199 points I thought it was $30 off per point, now looks to be $35. Haven’t had time to look at other resorts to see if any changes were made. Makes the cabins a bit more enticing…

They sure did...

Already emailed the guide to ask about next steps. Haven't completed closing process yet so I want my extra $5 a point!

Absolutely don’t blame you! I emailed mine too to make sure there is no funny business, like no more D23 discount or something.

I see you're looking at the other thread on incentives, but since this thread is specifically about CFW, here is that link copied and which confirms D23 is still good to go:

But no more Disney Visa $1500? Or did already expire prior to this.

That was gone before this.

ETA: it appears it’s still available for some?

Just talked to my guide, Disney visa still in play.

Thank you! This might be one I can't so "no" to. Been resisting all this time.

How many points do you need to buy to qualify?

How many points do you need to buy to qualify?

At least 150

This gets it down to $25k for 150 points. Confirmed.

Pair it with a nice credit card like the Spark Business card and you can lower it another $2,500! (2% cash back on the $25k + $2,000 sign up bonus).

If you do that, your total (before contract prep fees) is $150 a point.

It's so mathematically beautiful, 150^2... I'm feeling the pull but must resist

How exactly? I’m interested at that price point. Thank you.

Post #462 has the link - ETA, something happened to the link? Oh well.... here is a picture.

At 150 points: $28K, less $3K MB = $25K, which $166.66 per point

Would you all consider this set of incentives with the extra $5 off to be comparable to the great deal of 2 years ago with VGF? I often read of people talking of the VGF sale in particular. What has the recent super deals been? I know it's hard to predict, But $166.66 sounds enticing and maybe will be looked back upon as the "deal" for CFW.

I would have to go back and check my paperwork but I am pretty sure VGF was $163 or so for 150 points then. This is pretty close to that!

The downside of course is the much higher dues at the cabins. VGF points have a lot of value because the dues are so low, in addition to getting booking priority at VGF of course. You'd have to be nuts to buy cabin points as sleep around points, but honestly in practice I mostly use my VGF points bought during that "firesale" as sleep around points.
