congrats. I looked into buying more points to add to my current beach club account. I contacted disney and I was shocked at one how many points they had available for Beach Club on my use month and also on what they were asking per point. They wanted $108 per point or something it was the...

Glad you all are excited as we are. We did Halloween time back in 07 but never over the actual holiday as we will be next year. Sounds like we will all be there at the same time ( at least a few days if each others trip anyways)

Well I am 1 week from making my 11 month window reservations at Beach Club. We are hoping to split the 11 days with 4 at Bay Lake tower if there are any room available at the 7 month window. We are so looking forward to this trip already, because we know it will be the first time with just me...

I had ours done last year for the very merry xmas party. They personalized it with the three of us, ( we gave hair color info, ______ and names and glasses etc) they customized it all. We got our from an ebay seller

I agree with Master Yoda if the holiday decorations are important. As we did last year Thanksgivinig week and the week after. It was not mobbed but it was pretty crowded. Thats a cheap time to go and you get to see the holiday decorations. If xmas decorations are not that important to you I...

Ok we have never switched resorts in the middle of a trip but thinking about doing it next Oct trip. Our home resort is Beach Club. But I have some questions for you DVC experts. Our original plan was for 10 nights in a 1 br. But as I was thinking more about the booking of our trip I want...

a few years ago we decided to add an extra night while we were already down there. I am not 100% positive but I think the front desk handled everything I may have had to call member services. But either way it was easy, it had to be a seperate resie but we didnt have to change rooms or...

Like others have stated, check local dollar stores and what not for disney things to keep the kids occupied for the plane ride down. Maybe make some dvd's for the kids to watch if your bringing personal dvd players to occupy the kids on the way down. You can also put together some cheap...

while I am not a fan of breaking the rules. I understand your dilema. Are you linking your room keys to your park tickets? If you are dont mention the youngest child on the reservation. Then just get him a ticket at one of the parks ticket booths. Then I would have your wife sit with the kids...

sorry about your issues hopefully you enjoyed the rest of your trip. At Cape may even if they are understaffed, its a buffet, while the servers do work hard (not taking anything away form them) but it is a buffet, so basically they are just checking up on people and filling drinks. Add a drink...

we have 150 at BCV, and while it seems like enough for our family thanks to banking or borrowing, We are always wanting more, maybe someday but for now our amount fits our needs. If we ever do get more I am torn in going into the resale and get more at BCV or thru disney and get at another...

Great well written review. We stayed at POR on our honeymoon in 2002. We had the same feelings you stated. The biggest complaint was the walk from the main hotel/food court to our room. Made running out for a snack or a drink not worth it. On our honeymoon we bought into DVC and own at...

Its my understanding, that if the week ( in question)is 72 points for a certain season. If that if that particular week goes up in point values for that season, then the point value for a week in a different season must go down the same amount that the original week went up. So you have a...

The actually point totals cant change. If they add points at one place they need to remove from another, so in the end the totals stay the same. I am sure others can explain it more specifically than I.

and you thought that high school algebra would never come in handy :ROFLOL::ROFLOL:

Like my very first post said. Only you can make the choice for you and your family. I am sure for every member there is their own point of view and how they decided it was best for them. Whether you buy based on a math formula:brick: or just because of your love for Disney :sohappy: you know...

I totally respect your decsion and each choice is their own. But if I am reading your math right, where you came up with the 20 thousand figure you based it on 88 points, where as buying in you based it on 160 points almost double. So if you where to buy in DVC you could either go twice then...

as the others have stated above. But for ourselves, it definitely has been worth it. My wife and I bought on our Honeymoon in 2002. We where down there and just on a whim took the tour. No sales pressure at all. And told the sales lady we where on our honeymoon and have not even counted our...

I would drive, extra money arrive at your desired time, no public transportation needed, and have your car at your disposal. We live just west of Chicago and we have drove the last two trips and I plan on just doing this from now on. If you drive see if you can borrow a travel bubble for the...

The halloween party is the bets in my opinion. While we do enjoy the christmas theme and all the decorations, the Halloween parade is just so much more fun for us. Plus the weather usually is a bit nicer also. I am not sure how the crowds will be on Columbus day I assume that weekend would be...
