[quote=Anonymous]I've got two different experiences to share--My parents had one when I was a kid and I definitely loved having that one week a year at the same beach resort and knowing exactly what to expect (it helped that they bought it as part of a group of families who all chose the same place and week, so I had friends there at the same time). But years later it was a nightmare to get rid of and my dad still curses the experience and cost of it all. He's one of those people who basically had to pay someone to take it off his hands.

Then there's my FIL, who bought over a million points from Wyndham for the sole purpose of letting his kids and their families use them. My husband, who is one of 5, gets 1/5 of those points for us to use and in exchange all the siblings split the cost of the yearly maintenance. It's a hassle to use because the website is clunky to search and you need to do things so far in advance to have options, but I do love that we take a vacation every year for a fraction of what it would cost us if we had to pay for lodging and most of our food. I have no idea how it will play out in the future but for right now it's a system that works for us. [/quote]
