now we won't have to move rooms after the 1st night. Stalking beats wait list again.

Congratulations! I have been stalking for a last minute weekend trip for December 10-13. I started out with the Friday at Saratoga and a few days later got the Saturday at old key west, then switched it to Jambo house studio. I kept stalking and now we have BLT studio for Friday and a std view studio at boardwalk for Saturday. We don’t mind changing rooms as it’s just me and the hubby for this trip and we travel extremely light and I not have strategic access to the parks . We are excited to see the fireworks for the Christmas party from BLT since we won’t pay the crazy prices of the party. I did waitlist the Saturday for BLT but if it doesn’t come through I won’t be sad. I have decided to stop stalking like crazy since I’m happy with what we have.

Cancelled our Welcome Home trip for December but was then able to snag 6 nights in 1 BR at SSR on short notice. Stalked and by the time we were done our trip ended up being 2 nights at BWV 1BR followed by 4 nights at BCV 1BR. As a bonus we were able to get an AKV value studio for our arrival night on the drive down.

Good news all around!
I was missing One night in the middle of my April trip (I switched to the Riviera at the seven-month mark for part of the trip) and YAY IT WAS Available the other day so Impatient Me just booked it and canceled my waitlist.

Reading this and we are new to DVC - and waitlisted something for March do you suggest just checking it regularly too? Thanks!

Absolutely! Stalking beats waitlist quite often, if not most of the time.
And March isn't that far away!

Definitely stalk. Over the course of the last two weeks we put together 11 nights in a 1 BR at BWV (followed by 3 nights in a RIV Preferred studio) during the last 2 weeks of December.

I would check every 1-3 days at 8:30am central after my morning stand up. Just worked it into my morning routine

Yay!

Last week I was looking at my account and noticed I had an abandoned point. Since I had to abandon 2 points a few years ago and am just now getting over it (LOL), that one lonely point filled me with sadness. (not sure how I missed it before this) I had been looking for a hotel on Feb 22 anyway, so I checked Beach Club 1 bedrooms to match my reservation starting on the 23rd, and there is was. Used that point plus 36 more, still came in under the 50% borrowing mark, and now I don't have to move.

I still cannot believe I have a beach club reservation for Princess. It feels like a dream.

Sent in an email to have the reservations combined and it was done in 2 days. Excellent.

Absolutely. Always check. Waitlists are filled strangely and always have been.
