Need help making best use of HH points

[trampslady]

Okay, the forward planner that I am, I would like to start thinking about booking next November (week after Thanksgiving-Sunday through Thursday) at Hilton Head. My parents would like to come along and that means we need a two bedroom. The way I figure it, we will need 98 points for Sunday thru Friday (checkout). I have 45 points starting April 2005 and I can borrow 50 from the next use year--95 points puts me 3 points shy for the 11-month window.

I also have 130 points at SSR (yeah!) and 163 remaining BCV points. However, I will be booking Christmas through New Years Eve at Disney so that will gobble a considerable chunk of points.

So, when I get ready to secure HH, which day of the week do you suggest I hold out on until the 7-month window will allow me to book it using other points?

Or.....what do you think my chances are of "buying" three HH points from someone?

Four of your nights will be in Choice season and the last in Adventure season. I would probably use the 7 month window because of that (not a premier time) and they have more two bedrooms than anything. I would think too much hassle to buy 3 points from someone. JMHO
