Are there last call for points opportunities?

Hello! I am a Bluegreen ower, and while on a Hot weeks reservation we sat through a Vacation Village presentation and ended up purchasing a small lot of RCI points. We can't do a lot with it as it's only 23,500 per year (equivalent to a basic 1 bedroom on blue season) but I think the other perks of RCI points membership will make it worth it. We got two free off season weeks per year with the deal, and I've been looking into Extras vacation and Last Calls which I think we can actually use.

I was wondering though... is it possible to get last minute vacations for cheap points rather than cash? The sales person "sort of" showed us that possibility, but I wonder if she was just blowing smoke to sweeten the deal. Has anyone gotten cheap last minute vacations for points plus exchange fees?

Thanks!

You can book Last Minute weeks with Points... but there is no discount for booking a points week with points.

They run 7,500 to 9,000 points.

That sounds like what I am looking for... where do I find listings for Last Minute weeks?

There isn't an official one. I post them each morning in the RCI Exchange Opportunity forum. You need to have 30 posts or make a donation to the site to access that forum.

OK, I'm not to thirty posts yet, I'm a newby. But where do you get the info? Do you just search the RCI site?
