Same! My wife caught me looking at the site last night and said "the Beach Club Points aren't even in the account yet, give it a minute before buying another one"

At last she is ok with buying another one. She also knows how long resale takes. I was going to buy a new car last year but the money and some all went into 6 contracts last year.

Does anyone care to talk me into (or talk me out of) flipping my AKV and SSR contracts into a single SSR contract?

Why a single contract? How Many points you talking?

I don’t like large one contract, not as flexible.

I am not a good one to ask that because I just flipped my SSR to buy more VGF, even though it cost me in the end (but am making a $40 profit on SSR).

If you enjoy staying at AKV, then having some home resort advantage there can be good if you ever do want to try for those CL rooms. Both resorts are pretty good at 7 months so if you don't care what you get at AKV, having all points in one could be good!

Selling a 100 and a 200 and buying a 300. The 300 is a December UY, which would really be ideal for us. Right now we have a December and a March, which isn't quite perfect. Our most common trips will be April and Summer, which both work for, but we also go January/February occasionally which doesn't work as well with the March UY.

I got a really bad taste in my mouth the first time I tried (and failed) to book a Value room at AKV. I tried at 8am 11 months out for several weeks and it was so frustrating it somewhat spoiled the appeal of AKV as a home resort.

Having 2 use years would be enough for me to want to switch

There were a lot of posts I had to delete that were discussing a site that is not allowed to be talked about on this site.

When discussing a business, a link must be be posted. If it is blocked using *****, then it can not be discussed. Talking about a site,even without naming, is seen as a way around the rules.

The best way to know is to try the link and preview it.

Please review the rules if you have questions

Knew it was too good to be true. Happy for a fast turnaround, at least. Good luck to the rest of you still waiting!

That was pretty fast though! At least they didn't keep you hanging on for weeks and weeks.

Does it seem like more contracts pass earlier in the week than later?

Last week Friday came with some passes, so who knows! This past Monday did have a lot of passes, too...

I finally broke down and emailed my broker asking their thoughts since people who submitted weeks after I did are currently hearing back on decisions. I am wondering if the fact a surviving spouse (as listed on the contract) is the one selling that maybe there are extra hoops to jump through? I just want to know!!

I have never been down for "Jersey Week". How bad is it?

My kids are still small but my older one has some learning disabilities and is in the Pre-K3 program so I probably should start considering booking Jersey week for 2023 to avoid needing to take time off from school.

The problem with Jersey week isn’t the crowds so much as the influx of New Jersians. I live here, so I can say this: the people here aren’t for everyone and take some getting used to (and the same is true BTW for anyone living in any of NYS’s lower 9 counties, it’s a region thing not a state thing).

So excited!

Fellow New Jersian here, I’m not sure this is good or bad? Any difference between northern and southern Jersey?

Hopefully the luck of the Irish is on my side!

As a South Jersey peep, yes! North & South Jersey are totally different. We tend to be more like Philly or shore folks.

I’m the seller. Disney took it:

I live in Northern NJ now but grew up in Central/Southern NJ. First job was in Philly. I can attest to the fact that North Jersey and South Jersey may as well be different countries!
