Re: Marriott Vacation Club point system (by Steve F.):
Yeah, everyones usage and needs are different. Retired with no kids for us, we definitely *need* a kitchen. We usually do cook most meals in the room wherever we go as we enjoy it, meaning there's really no additional expense for food while we are out of town since obviously we'd eat at home anyway. Sounds like Aruba was an expensive deal. Foreign ownership probably is more trouble or expense. We were just in Branson a few months back, cheap to get in there and a short drive from our place. Those types of trips basically have no additional cost over staying home, just the cost of the fees we pay each year for the various ownerships. We like to go down to S. Padre Island generally in January too, another drive trip.
