TOTW events

[jeffwwalters]

Are they still doing the TOTW events they were doing earlier in the year?

What if any are the current incentives?

Some people say fastpasses and food. Not sure if still happening?

In October we received fast passes and they served sandwiches and cheesecake and drinks.

We went to one on 10/31.

I think the incentives were $108 per point at Aulani, AKV and SSR if you bought 100 pts or more and $96 per point at the same if you bought 250 pts or more.

They did mention that prices were going up for BLT on 12/1 and that the financing rules were changing a bit.

To be honest, I just went to see the lounge, enjoy some treats and get the FPs so I wasn't paying a ton of attention to the incentives but what I posted above is what I wrote in my notepad.

Did you get the fast passes?

Did you get the fast passes?

Yes and they were fantastic! We got three Fast Pass Exchange cards good for 3 FPs each. We used them for Toy Story Mania twice and for Soarin.

The presentation was fun and the snacks were good too. It was also nice to see the lounge. We found it was well worth our time, just for the FPs alone.

Around what time of the day do they have these events and how can I attend?

Will they still have it in the Spring?

We went last week and they were serving sandwiches and drinks. After you get done with the presentation they give you 1 fast pass per person that is good for three times. Incentives were I believe amounted to 108 dollars per point versus 120. More if you bought over 160 points

Thanks for the info. How do you get to the presentation? Can you park at blt?

 

[KBoopaloo]

The presentation we went to was at 1:00. I stopped at the DVC desk in my resort (Coronado - we were staying on Reservation Points from a cancelled Concierge Collection reservation) the morning of and asked if it was too late to register for that day's event. She said people usually register the day before but she would check on availability. She was able to get us in and told us to get there around 12:40 or 12:45.

We had planned on having breakfast at Kona that morning so we just took the monorail over. I am not sure if they would let you park at BLT, but I bet they would.

I just went on oct. 31. Prices were going up the day after

I guess we were lucky. We received the fast passes, one lanyard and one pin each, a very nice DVC writing pad (looks like leather, but is probably not) with a DVC pen inside, a DVC blue bag !

There was also many prices awarded !

The lunch was not very good... sandwiches were really so so... dessert was o.k.

We went Nov. 2 and received the same items as marie1981. The event is held at 1pm each day. You can get signed up at any DVC kiosk in the parks, resorts, and DTD. They do give away lots of DVC prizes plus a $100 gift card to one lucky participant. We got Aluani pins as well as the fast pass card per person. Each card is good for 3 instant ride fast passes. I did not think of it as lunch, but we enjoyed the sandwhiches drinks and dessert offerings. Seeing the TOTW was nice as was the room tour. It was a great mid day break and an easy way to add on or buy points if you are in the market. It is a good way to learn what is going on with DVC. If you are a member you get a member since, they fill in the year, button which was cool. We will attend again if they have it when we are back in January.

We were at the same presentation! I forgot about all the rest of the loot even though I loved using the lanyard to hold my AP the rest of the trip.
