I began with the weeks system, purchasing too many, selling off two, etc. Then I converted one week to RCI Points, bought two Australia weeks and had them converted to Points, kept my SA week as a week because it wouldn't convert, and kept two weeks to use yearly.
Was very satisfied with the Points, the SA week, two weeks that we always use (Florida oceanfront), and life in general.
Then... got the bug... and was elected as State Representative. After that I have had to use Points for our airline tickets to England twice, just to keep from losing them.
As I am not making a career out of the Legislature, things will, before too long, be back to normal where I can use my points for exchange and use them up for that yearly, rather than having to utilize Points for airfare.
The mix is a good one. Two weeks used yearly, the SA week will trade for weeks that would cost more points than it would bring if I paid them to take it in for Points (if one is careful about trades), one week that I sometimes take as my Home Week (another Florida oceanfront), and the Points that allow me to add three or four extra days on to a weeks stay if we are going, say, to California.
All in all, I have been satisfied with my weeks and Points mix.
