Practical Tips for funding your DVC purchase

[Stargazer65]

Eating 2-3 pounds of liver per week for 50 years would cost you $23,000-$35,000 (not accounting for inflation). I gave that up to cover the cost of my last DVC contract. Fifty years of vacations, just by giving up one thing. ​

BEEF LIVER $4.49 /lb​

.

What other practical suggestions can you share to fund a DVC purchase?

Judging by my last trip, some people have chosen to give up deodorant. Those sticks add up.

My coffee habit costs at least $5 a day. If I keep the liver dinners and give up the coffee, I could save enough in a lot less time than 50 years.

I'll go for the unpopular choice: Quit drinking.

You can't imagine how many thousands of dollars that saves, in and out of Disney.

Time to buy some more points!

Give up anything over minimum liability auto insurance for my family, and buy 150pts direct within 3 yrs.

Drive VERY carefully lol.

If you cut out water, the savings really kick in rather quickly

Just move closer to Disney. Driving costs a lot less than flying ;-)
