DVC Chit Chat Thread

lol. Thought I was bidding on 100 points to replace a contract, and ended up just wanting to own 100 more points in total.

Anyone else ever have the “I’ll sell something if I buy this other contract” issue and then totally change your mind and keep both? I am now unintentionally point rich. Gonna have to figure out how to spend more points. Life is rough.

Heading to Vero next week … BOGO bug spray for the win!

We're going for the first time in June-- sounds like I should stock up!

No, an actual chat section. Not a forum.

What features would that have that would be different?

That’s funny I’ve been telling myself to sell 100 BLT to buy 100 CCV, but I’m sure I’d never sell it and talk myself into renting to “help pay dues”… which only really turns into bigger rooms or longer stays. lol

Like texting, it’s called a “chat box” so it would be like a group text on your phone… they can get hectic when trying to keep on topic with something and others are chatting at the same time.

I am not currently in the market for a new source of real-time interruption.

Best part about it is you can join if you want to. I’ve used it on other forums and it worked quite well.

Okay, got it. I think Disboards doesn't currently have that feature

I ordered them online thought the DisneyStore. They put them up after the Festival of the Arts. I’m not sure if they will always be available.

I got the frames from Michael’s…. it would be nice if the hooks were level on each picture….

My hack for this is actually using Velcro command strips. Then you can kind of shimmy the frame whichever way you need to without starting all over again when something is slightly off.

But if I sell I’ll have to pay the commission….
Which is something I should have thought about before I bought the ‘replacement’ contract but conveniently forgot.

I thought about it. Turns out I just like more points.

Since I was considering possibly buying Aulani next year, and because I ended up buying 3 contracts last year, I forced myself to sell a contract. I definitely could have kept using it, but I still have about $20k on no interest cards that is going to come due. It just made more sense to sell the contract than to wait until I replaced it. Jokes on me because I decided that I don't want to buy Aulani points next year.

I've never sold one of my contracts yet. I'm trying to spend more vacation time on the west coast. I wonder if I should sell my VGF so I can buy more VDH, but I have some VGF points tied up in reservations until about 8 months. And these are some firesale VGF points, and direct pricing will never be so cheap again. With their annual dues, they make great SAP.

The other temptation is just to add. I know that I don't need more points. Maybe I can come to my senses with sticker shock looking at my annual dues now that I've added some VDH points earlier this year. We have relatively high property tax in Texas because there isn't an income tax, but I think I'm at the point of paying more in DVC annual dues than property tax on my house. *eek*

Which resort did you end up ditching in hopes of getting Aulani!?
