this site offers wicked travel deals to some unbelieveable places. my friend booked a trip in December by calling the agency toll-free, travelled in February of this year and said they had a brilliant time. Anyhow, i called myself a few days ago and was very impressed, as they walk you thru where you are staying and all the perks. it's four star accomodtion. there are no hooks to this special, and my friend said the only requirement for the $299 10 day vacation was to have a all expense paid 90 minute lunch in the courtyard so they can show you all their worldwide properties. anyhow, happy trails and here is the link to the site.

Interesting.. I think. Is it a timeshare commercial?

The sales pitches at these are usually hard to turn down, and you could end up buying more than you bargained for.

Yeah, it's a serious hard sell, lots of pressure tactics. Make sure there is no way you will buy, timeshares are a major ripoff.

all good points. use the deal for your benefit. there are vacancies so it is a loss leader to the resort. for me, its $299 for a resort vacation to some real nice spots! and like you say, don't feel any pressure to buy despite how good it sounds. it is legit, but who cares. go to the 90 minute meeting, shake your head like you care, have a great free lunch, and then as jerry garcia would say, .... toodooloo and on my way to the beach!

I like this kind of stuff, because I can't be pesuaded to buy something I don't want to buy, so, cheap vacation for me woo hoo
