bought additional points at $0.09 per pt within the 14 day window. Wow this is a great benefit. That and a few other things make getting to Silver important.

From whom and how did you buy these points for 9 cents each? Can you please elaborate and explain further??
He is referring to renting points from DRI. The OP is referring to the discounted price inside 14 days prior to reservation. It was one of the new benefits for 2014. Details are on the DRI website.
Go to My Benefits section and select Diamond Loyalty and details are displayed in the chart.

Thanks for the posting and the specific reference. I was wondering what the deal was. It's nice to be able to buy a few points when you are short a few for a 14 day window reservation (versus paying your mf in advance). Completely slipped by me!

Thanks - the word "bought" is what threw me off.
Yes, I did read about the renting of points of 9 cents recently. This would be great for folks that live within driving distance of the DRI resorts.RuralEngineer

$0.09 vs $0.25
Does anyone know why some resorts will be priced at $0.09 per pt and others at $0.25 for the same dates?
