did the meeting last less? I cannot imagine the sales people wanting to see that T-shirt for 90 minutes

They were trying to get us to go 3 years ago we went we got $500 us. Why buy we we have 2 weeks for under $1300 mf and fixed. So we see our same freinds every year. With beach front veiws. Costa sur. We go on the 4 and 5 week every year. And enjoy great food outside of the resort.

Unfortunately we’re not able to wear that shirt (we were young and uninformed all those many years ago and paid retail :() but would love to spread the word about TUG :cheer: (and also fend off the owners’ update solicitation), so are other TUG shirts available?

I’m thinking about buying a TUG T-shirt. Did it help end the owners or sales presentation early? I’m thinking about the Keep Calm and Buy Resale one.

I have the 'I paid more for this T-Shirt than for my timeshare' one. I wore it to a presentation in Mexico. They called off the presentation and wouldn't give me my perks and discounts until I changed my shirt. But they will definitely end a presentation.

I was thinking about other useful slogans. How about “I Am Considering a $1 TUG Resale Offer for This Timeshare”?

these are still available and made by a TUG member

http://www.hiptogether.com/products/tug-keep-calm-and-buy-resale.html

im not sure if michael has any other designs available to purchase currently as i dont see the amazon store ones up any longer.
Sorry I missed this post. Both shirts are still available and I have links to them in my signature.

We are moving our business this week (closing our retail store, switching to online only, and moving to a smaller facility). We'll have a lot of organizing and rearranging to do in the coming weeks, but I'll see if I can put together some new designs.

I promise you had a buyer in me. If you are able to (understand if you can’t given admin time and work), I’d love the shirt “I Am Considering a $1 TUG Resale Offer for This Timeshare.” If too much hassle, I’d buy the one “Keep Calm and Buy Resale.”

So, what did you do?

Changed my shirt, took the freebies (10% off the resort bill on everything, free Wi-Fi, $200 credit) and put it back on later around the resort to plug TUG.

ONLY BUYS
$1 TUG RESALE
TIMESHARES

I think I am going to make a T-shirt:
"I will buy it for $1"

Can you make it “I will buy the timeshare for $1.” That makes it clearer. If you do, I promise I will be a buyer.

maybe i will make both, the 1st one is more subtle (but I am sure a salesperson would know that it is referring to a TS), the second one more in the face!

looks like teespring now offers handbags and hats and all sorts of items to print logos and phrases on vs just tshirts!

what would we like to see next? ill happily put something else together if at least half a dozen folks would be interested in buying (im pretty sure thats the minimum for a teespring run)

you can even have your own TUG shower curtain!!!

How about a beach/pool bag? I bet that would be popular. Or even a tumbler/travel insulated cup? Both could be used by members around the pool....and a little more subtle that a t-shirt. But still effective. You could set the tumbler down on the presentation table.... :)
