If I get the stimulus check, I would add on at...

[MJ NH]

The stimulus check is the best enabler for adding on. How would you use it for DVC? I told my wife that the DVC prices are set. Everywhere else will jack up prices: car dealers, home improvement, golf club memberships, etc. So DVC add on is best. Where are you adding?

Hmm I guess I would buy my 4 points at BWV.

We just became resale members at AKV in July. Now we're looking for a good deal on Aulani, Copper Creek, Poly, Vero Beach, & OKW. I just have to sell my wife on the idea.

No where right now, Next time I buy, it will be direct 100 points at RIV or SSR.

I have plenty of points for the next 3 years from canceled trips that it will hold me off!

About 500.00 to Philabundance to feed the hungry.This pandemic has decimated too many people for me to worry about more points.

Good choice! And that’s my wife’s kind of option, or to save it. But for me I think buying points enjoying disney life is the best form of charity.

We get money for our children but we let them choose what to do with it. Last time, they chose to give it to St. Jude’s. This time, they’ve selected a food pantry and soup kitchen run by Saint Vincent De Paul.

It wouldn’t buy us more than a few points, unfortunately.

Great idea!

Maybe towards renting some DVC points..? It's not enough money to purchase a contract or maybe you have a much larger family than we do!

I won’t believe getting free money until I see that official check arrive in the mail

its not free money, it was yours coming back to you. $600 won't buy many points though. If it could buy any relevant points, I would buy at Animal Kingdom where we own all of our current points.

It would decrease our MF a bit. I suppose we could buy gift cards to help even more.

I like it.

I was thinking the $2000 per person stimulus when I posted this thread.

At $2000, I’m going to wait to buy like 3 points at the new DL Tower. I figure they’ll be asking around $667 a point for them.

It's not taxable.

And it'll be 27pts/nite.

3 points will get you from 7:45p to 10:25p every year

Same. Also, if we did qualify, I’m not sure I would consider myself to be in a position for such a purchase.
