What if…

I am buying direct for the Blue Card for the same reason (VDH). Maybe a little FOMO too, but mainly the unrestricted points for new resorts. On my last two trips I was surprised how many places rejected my Disney VISA discount when dining out, so on this last trip to Disneyland I tracked my expenses and saved around $50 in discounts not covered by the Disney VISA. May seem small but over time these extra Blue Card discounts will add up. I didn’t know how much I would enjoy the exclusive lounges too! 😂
In many places the dvc discount is better than the magic key so I always say im dvc
 

I feel like it costs a lot more…50 per point adds up when it’s 200 points. I definitely don’t need Home advantage at Riviera.. I would just like the option to stay there and the others

Do you like 1 bedrooms? If so, that is where having home resort advantage can play a nice role to grab RV over PV.

Those extra points add up…with studios, the difference is manageable if you have to take PV.
 
I bought two BLT resale last year in summer then added Poly direct end of September. My trip is not until this June. Every time I want to buy more points, I come to the board to justify why I shouldn’t make any further decisions until we make to our trips in June. I almost agreed to an offer to Riveria resale thinking I don’t want to “waste” my direct points there when I can buy a cheaper points to stay. The reality is I would need to pay 12K -20K to be able to do that. Let those money sitting in bank along will give me enough return to get one night at riviera to experience. Why should I lock myself in for a commitment that I’m just imaging I would like. Haha. I agree make trips with what you have and enjoy before making any decision. AKL refurb looks great and great points for 1 bedroom. I’m so looking forward to stay in summer.
