OMG...my husband agreed to DVC!
I just had to tell people who will understand...I have been trying to convince my hsuband to buy DVC for two years and he finally agreed with the latest incentive to buy into AKV!!
I'm calling our guide today to tell her to start the process - my parents already own so they get a referral reward- bonus! Now I have to wait for everything to be completed and then try to change our November mother-son trip to SSR since the incentive includes 160 developer points at SSR. Hopefully they have rooms left at this late date.

I am still working on my DH but the only way he will agree(if I continue to push) is on resale.
