Rescuing this thread! How are you all? Ready for some snow?!! I hope we don’t have to cancel our Super Bowl party

I don’t see any snow other than flurries next Sunday in our S Jersey forecast. Stay safe if you’re going to get hit up north.

The weather switches quick, just like your avatars.

I know, I know! I hear that a lot! I get bored with them very easily! My friend is in Disney as we speak and she just got me the new Passholder magnet that is out! She just sent a picture of it to me so I thought I would use it as my avatar... temporarily.

I’m hoping my SIL can snag me that one in February. I tried talking the wife into a quick weekend trip to grab one but she didn’t bite.

Hopefully they’ll have a new one out when you go again!

Hi! I’m from Morris county and grew up in a dvc family that purchased at boardwalk in 1996 and I just got my own resale contract at BLT a month ago ! Boardwalk and beach club are still my favorites but the longer expiration of BLT appealed to me and my 2 year old loves the monorail !

Hi there. Live in Essex County and home resort is VGF. Just got back earlier this month and heading back again for a few days in early April and then again in October/November.
So glad I found this forum - you all sound like a great group of fellow DVCers!

Hi everyone - hope you're all having a great week. I'm still a newbie when it comes to DVC so hoping you can help me get a bit smarter. When buying, I bought direct which I've learned means I paid far more than had I bought resale. I've been thinking that I'd love to add on at some point and noticed that many of you own at different resorts. Is that primarily to have a different booking window or to be near a specific park or something else? Also, I assume I'm asking the obvious but do most people buy via the resale market?? I appreciate any insight or info as I continue to get smarter about all of this!

Welcome!

I bought most of my points direct at CCV. After realizing I needed more points I bought a resale at AKL my wife’s favorite resort. After the wife and I decided we wanted to do F&W every year, we figured that would best be done from an Epcot resort so we bought a resale at BWV. I’m not willing to do the 7 month tango so I bought my resale contracts for where I wanted to stay for each trip. I’m pretty sure I’ll never pay direct prices again as staying at resorts other than where I own just isn’t on my radar, I’m happy to stay where I own so any resale restrictions don’t bother me at all.
