Spring Direct Incentives 2/9-4/27

[juliebee]

I need to know this too im losing my mind lol

I can see SSR being appealing to you since you mostly desire a volume of points instead of home resort priority.
I'm planning to stick with the Poly contract, but wanting to see the numbers just so I can fully weigh the options.

 

[eticketplease]

The home resort priority really doesnt mean much to me at all.

That is the "@ this time" @Girlstar30 talking.
What it will it be like for the in 5-10 years @Girlstar30 talking?

With Disneyland Forward eventually coming I think it will matter more imo with only 2 resorts at the moment for DLR.

imo I would stay put. Also you should be able to rent your points at a premium if the need arose compared to having to stalk something at the 7 month window to secure with SSR.

Can you share the whole sheet for this? Also, is the 35th Anniversary $1000 available for SSR?

Here it is

I am tempted to switch from CCV and for this, 150 per point vs 206ish!! Ughhhhh

 

[eticketplease]

Time to do some math!

Thanks,

Was this sent in an email or was there a link?

My only pause is the shorter expiration date.

This is the significant downside to SSR. Even with this lower price point, if you compare the CCV flash sale that just ended to this deal, CCV is still cheaper on a per point per year basis because of the longer life of the contract.

CCV: $209/point + $9.04 dues + 42 years on contract = $14.02 per point per year
SSR: $150/point + $9.19 dues + 28 years on contract = $14.55 per point per year

Of course, that does not account for time value of money nor does it consider potential differences in dues growth rates.

Ill also add, SSR always seems to be the "last to go" (meaning it has strong availability). I don't see that changing soon, so you are losing your 11 month booking benefit.

Especially around the holidays, no better place than Wilderness Lodge imo.

If Copper Creek Studios/1 Bedrooms slept 5, it would be really dangerous for me. Luckily, I don't have to cross that bridge

Thank you!!
If anyone gets sheets for the other resorts, please share!

Agreed. Additionally, renting out CCV is probably a lot easier than SSR if you ever have some years you aren't going to use your points.

Still, saving $11,800 on 200 points isn't nothing. And, if you take that, invest it for 28 years, assuming you can earn 6% rate of return, you'll have about $60,000 when your SSR contract expires.

It seems as if this SSR is the best deal if you don’t care about booking priority , just want direct points

Now I have to think

150 pp plus magical beginnings?

 

[heelphan]

Ooo, been wanting to get some direct points and kicking myself for missing last year's OKW fire sale. This looks like this SSR offer is pretty close to that sale. Decisions, decisions.

I do have emotional ties to Disneyland. I am actually a "proud" owner there, whereas SSR would be an "I did it because it was cheap" owner I am hoping some more credits will be announced for vdh Its true what @juliebee said i just want more direct points ugh. I wont do it with vdh. Still havent ran the numbers my wife keeps distracting me. I think she can see the crazy in my eyes right now and knows something is about to happen again

 

[Middle of Main Street]

I am almost certain the answer to both of these questions is no. Incentive plus magical beginnings if you want to do it. That's probably it.

I spoke with my guide and he said it is only stackable with Magical Beginnings.

Can you add vdh in there

 

[ClaraOswald]

“If you are already a member don’t walk into the store unless you want to buy….”

That’s gonna cause a lot of people to schedule with a guide just before the incentives change. Poor logistics planning.

I was thinking this too. All the people "in the know" will wait until the end of the incentive period to contact a guide. (Which is actually what I did this last one...ha!)

Ok if its $170 per point after $45 off at the 200 level I might freaking switch somebody please advise

So you're considering ditching VDH for SSR???

1000 off too?

It could be my chance to get 200 points and not feel guilty
