I currently have 5 nights booked in June at BCV (our home resort) and I was originally going to add the 6th night (Sun) after buying OTU points at the 7 month mark but that night is no longer available. So, I think I want to switch our last 1-2 nights (Fri-Sat) plus add the Sun night to either BLT or Poly, depending on what's available in Nov at the 7 month mark. I figure if we have to do a split stay I'd like to at least have 2-3 nights at the new resort. Depending on which resort, we would need between 18-23 OTU points for 3 nights. Is my thinking correct that it would be cheaper to buy the 2025 MMB in Nov to get the BOGO price for those OTU points? Since I have a Feb UY and our trip is in our 2026 UY, I wouldn't really be able to use the other 2025 MBB benefits, correct? Also, I don't have 150 direct points but bought resale a long time ago and am grandfathered in for other benefits, so I should be eligible to purchase MMB, is that right?

As a separate but related question, what's the best way to go about the change logistically? I don't want to lose my nights I have booked for BCV, but would need the points from dropping the last 1-2 nights to have enough to book at the new resort. Any advice would be very much appreciated!
