We did an owners update at Bonnet Creek in October and they really try to push the Plus Partners. The woman told my husband how she bought more points and then used them to buy dinner gift certificates and even gift certificates at the home depot. To this day my husband thinks that is the funniest thing he has ever heard. We should pay Wyndham money to buy points, then pay maintenance on those points and then use the points to buy gift certificates for other things. :hysterical:
I think for someone that may have the benefit as part of their original purchase its a nice way to get rid of those pesky extra points but never something I would pay for.
