wow thats a mighty big list!

ill sort out the dates that are open for you tomorrow!

 

[swift]

Wow!!! Do you fulltime timeshare?

 

[TUGBrian]

KevJan in Massanutten!

:whoopie: No not full time, but I am laughing so hard at the responses..

Actually works out to be about 8-12 weeks of vacation/timeshare per year, but note all are within driving distance of my home in Mexico, but hubby flies back and forth, so still have to deal with flight increases etc..sometimes I just go with my mom or a friend.

Guess I should say yea to full time timesharing since when not vacationing, most of time spent on timeshare or vacation sites

I have 2 addictions....vacationing and owning timeshares, which means you have to vacation...LOL....plus we give away to sons and or friends at least a few a year, have even rented a few at great deals to not so close friends, and given some free weeks to workers of my hubby!

Nah..you are all right, I must have a problem/addiction...it is a long list

Happy Vacations!!!

 

[TUGBrian]

added a few of your weeks pammex! if noone takes the slots in and around your week you can keep it for your entire run through mexico =)

 

[pammex]

Okay, sounds good to me...would love to do it...when would this start or what weeks did you put me in for...etc...just checking to be sure to tell hubby in states to be on lookout for it and to bring it here...

Any Tugger who will be in area of Mexico I am at same time, can hook up with me and sign and take photo with the banner as well...even if at different resort, just in same area.....Oh this will be very fun!!!

Thanks for letting me in on this!!

 

[pammex]

Oh the banner can also do Lake Chapala Mexico as I have home there and am there 99.99% of my time, well except for the vacations of course!!!! LOL.

Lake Chapala is a tourist area as well for many Americans and canadians....

Want me to take it to a timeshare presentation??? Only kidding!!!!!

If you go to page 1 of this thread you can see the on going week assignments. http://www.tugbbs.com/forums/showpost.php?p=523185&postcount=1

Hmmm... this is getting so popular that maybe that post should be a sticky--what do you think Brian?

Ill also be making a dedicated webpage for display of the pictures and status etc....just havent had time to do it with the release of the timeshare marketplace recently!

have to see how many current stickys we have already up there...i hate it when you get a ton of those built up...kinda eliminates the purpose of having a sticky!

When you take it to the presentation, maybe you can have the group of SalesReps hold the banner up so you can take a pic. :hysterical:

:hysterical: great idea!!! Do I win if I take it to a timeshare presentation and get all the sales people in on pic!!! :hysterical: :hysterical: Least we are all getting a laugh out of this, laughing good for the soul and health!!!

TugBrian: ah yes okay I see it, the weeks I am down for...great. This is going to be fun and now a contest...cool.

Great pics thus far, boy I am going to have to be creative with my pics now and hey maybe I can squeeze in a few more vacations...no....only kidding...

 

[pammex]

TugBrian...just want to thank you for your time and effort on this which appears to be a whole lot of work....no vacations for you, this may be very time consuming.....I commend you efforts and appreciate them...way to go.

I think this is the greatest idea for us Tuggers......very creative thinking.

Good job!!

awesome pic!!

 

[pammex]

awesome pic!!

Well I just had someone PM who is going to be in PV & NV same time as me in Nov...so we are going to hook up with the banner and they can get their pics at their resort also.....

I told them to PM me closer to time and we can make arrangements to hook up etc....I also printer their PM and put with my reservation so I do not forget, could happen since I have 4 weeks of vacation before that Nov. one and I am not even sure who I am taking on the Nov. one yet, maybe mom, maybe a friend, who knows, but hubby won't be here, so it goes.

This is great we are working the banner already in Mexico, well at least planning...LOL

 

[pammex]

I just went back to the first page to recheck the week assignments and noticed it says weeks in bold are confirmed....am I supposed to do something to confirm my weeks, or just wait and they get confirmed as time goes by??/

 

[TUGBrian]

no..i just kinda fell behind in "bolding" the other ones...sorry!

 

[swift]

Hey Brian--- These weeks are on top of each other :

4. Black Diamond - Silver Leaf Fox Run / Illinois - 6/21/2008
5. luv2vacation - hgvc orlando - 6/27/2008
6. Swift - Tahoe Village / Lake Tahoe - 7/3/2008
7. SusieQ - St George Utah - 7/12/2008
8. IreneLF - Smugglers Notch - 7/19/2008
9. luv2vacation - royal dunes /hilton head - 7/26/2008

When we receive the banner are we given the full name and address of the timeshare where the next person in line is staying at? How is this working?

 

[TUGBrian]

soon as the person gets the banner and takes the pic...its off to the next person.

if there isnt enough gap...the banner will be mailed to the resort the person is staying at (happened once or twice already)

I dont think anyone has actually kept the banner the "entire week"
