I added-on at BLT (again): Contract #23
I added-on another 125 points at BLT today, giving me 425 points at BLT and 1,250 points overall.
This is my 22nd add-on to my original, giving me 23 contracts. At least they're all the same UY.
After seeing the recent pictures of BLT in the media (especially those fantastic views), my opinion that BLT will become my favorite resort was solidified.
Once I get the paperwork, I won't return it until after the new incentives are announced. If the new incentives are better for me, I'll simply tear it up and have it re-written; otherwise, I'll sign it and send it back.
My guide repeated what I've heard on other boards: that BLT is selling faster than expected, and faster than BCV did.
Now, I was already sold and she had no reason to tell me this to get me to buy, so perhaps there is a tad bit of truth to this? Or maybe that's what the management is telling their sales force. She mentioned that BLT might sell out in a month or so.

First I want to congratulate you on your good fortune.
Do you know when new incentives will be announced and have you been told they will be? I am also wondering why they would need to have incentives if they are selling so fast and might be sold out by the end of the month? Any information about this?

Do you get 23 bills?
How many 'home' resorts do you have?

The current incentives are valid through June 15. I believe the new incentives won't be as good for BLT as the current ones. BLT is selling well compared to AKV and SSR/THV. I'm waiting to see what the new incentives may be.

Mike, if all those points get too heavy to carry around, you can transfer some into my account and I'll help you bear the load.

What does one do with 1250 points/year? I'll admit, my 160 is pretty paltry and I could certainly figure out a way to spend 500 points a year or so --- but how do you use your points? I'm really interested! Do you do Adventures by Disney or anything like that? Cruises?
I'm curious!
Oh, and congrats - that is pretty cool.

I plan on using them for DVC stays. I haven't had a problem using 1,000 or even 1,125 points so far. I think I can use all 1,250 points.
I haven't used my points for ABD or RCI yet.

We also just added on points at BLT. Talked to our guide today and she said that the current incentives end on June 15 and they won't be offering any new incentives for BLT after that because it's selling so well!

Thanks - this is good to know. I have a call into my guide and hopefully we will talk tonight.
Congrats for your add on points at BLT!!

I think you may have an addiction issue that requires an intervention!
Just kidding ... I could easily use 1,250 per year. They go quickly.
We could definitely do 3-4 trips a year in a 2 bedroom (1 trip during peak season) and burn through those points with little difficulty.
We have 360 points right now and they don't go nearly as far as we could probably use. We'll definitely be adding on more once DW's income recovers from this slow economy.

We easily burned through over 1000 for a deluxe DCL cruise this year. I'm sure we could find a way to use 1250.

Yep, you'd be surprised. We take 4 trips a year, each a minimum of 8 nights - sometimes longer.
I'm hoping to book a GV at BLT with a MK view just once. See how fast the points disappear!

Mike, I eagerly await hearing about you being (one of?) the first non-corporate member to hit the point ceiling.
Consider it a challenge!

LOL!
I don't think I can own more points than I have now, due to a limited amount of vacation days I can take off work.

Can someone tell me or point me in the direction of where to find out what the incentives are for BLT that expire on June 15? Thanks!
I LOVE DISNEY WORLD!!!!!
A dream is a wish your heart makes and mine came true when I retired here in December 2014! I go to a park at least once a week!

I'm a SAHM and I don't get as many days off as you!
Congrats on the points you've accumulated. I'd love to go 4 times a year at 8 days minimum (and I live in FL). But I do manage to squeeze in a couple of nights most months plus two separate weeks during the year so that almost makes up for it.
