I was updating my DVC spreadsheets, and thought I would start capturing my DVC usage, since buying in back in October of 2011.
Our first DVC Trip was in January of 2013. We retired in 2020, accumulating points incrementally, and now we SnowBird on DVC.
So, what started as a Vacation Purchase for an annual WDW trip, has become Long-Term DVC to use as our Winter Escape from the Mid-Atlantic. Our first trip was 7 Nights; Our shortest 5 Nights; Our Longest 63 Nights; Average (including upcoming 2026)= 27 Nights. I found it interesting, and did not see a thread covering this topic, and I hope the graph inserts properly below.
I'm anxious to see everyone else's numbers...........
ETA - We have stayed in Studios/1BR/2BR and once in a Grand Villa at SSR -

WOW - you jumped into DVC with both feet :rotfl:
I'm always flirting with that 1,000 point mark - waiting for the "perfect add-on" :D

I cant believe you have been able to stay 63 nights and not have 1000 pts. Absolutely amazing! One day I will be at WDW for a month and I will think back to this. 🥂

When it's just the 2 of us, we've learned to live within Studios for prolonged stays without driving each other crazy! :D

I modified the graph to overlay the number of points we accrued over this period. We added on big time in 2020 & 2021.
It was fortuitous timing for us; I had already planned to retire and look for more points, and COVID really spooked the resale market, so we acquired the bulk of our add-on-itis points then. (We had 920 at one time, we bought and eventually re-sold BCV and HHI points along the way)Screen Shot 2025-11-12 at 1.34.34 PM.png
