My parents are members since 1992. I became a member last year. It's becoming less and less of a good deal due to the expiration dates and how expensive new points are and limited they are now.

I bought resale. 9k for 150 points at Saratoga which is often the best bang for buck and has the lowest maintenance fees. We go once every 2-3 years. Bank and borrow points to stay in the bigger condos. The newer hotels are more like apartments while Old Key West is like a really condo with lots of room. Location is key though. Can't beat staying at Boardwalk and so near to EPCOT and Hollywood Studios. But if you love Magic Kingdom and want to spend all your time there, Bay Lake is your best bet.

Can't remember from the last time I went, but do you have easy monorail access from Bay Lake?

Hell is freezing over cause we actually agree on something. We joined same time as your parents give or take a year. Got couple a hundred points. Old Key West rooms are huge in comparison. I think we just missed out by a couple years lifetime free annual passes.

Other big pluses are you always stay on property of course, and you can eat a meal or two a day in the room. Just cooking breakfast in the room for several people every morning can save a small fortune.
