The 90 Minute Timeshare Presentation – Worth The Time? That depends on if they stick to the 90 minutes and if you got something in return.
In an article today on one of Boston’s local news websites, a timeshare resort in Vermont is promoting discounted two day vacation packages with bigger discounts if you attend a timeshare presentation.
Names redacted to protect whatever:
1) $399 for a two-night midweek stay (worth $711)
2) $595 for a two-night weekend stay (worth $795)
3) $149 for a two-night midweek stay with a timeshare presentation (worth $711)
4) $249 for a two-night weekend stay with a timeshare presentation (worth $795)
You can say to yourself, I can resist the temptation to buy a timeshare for the additional $250 discount and it is worth 90 minutes of my time. Or you can bypass the experience and pay more.
Regardless of the option you choose, be aware of the fine print of these kinds of offers. You don’t have to look very far to see how these guys can gouge you. There are caveats for all offers and if you are willing to tiptoe through barbed wire, you might like the experience. It’s not for me. Kind of hard to relax on a short vacation if you are worried how “the man” is going to stick it to you.
There are plenty of other timeshare rental deals and inexpensive timeshare purchase deals out there to create your own great ski vacation.
Especially in Vermont and New Hampshire.
