Ok so my wife and I were at a outlet mall we never been to. Had a stand to sign up for free 2 night 3 day stay at a nice resort by me keylime cove, 40 dollar visa and two tickets to car Derby. The catch?!...90 min timeshare tour at silverleaf resorts. Make reservation during week cost 20, and weekend was 40 so it seem legit. The plan was to go make the drive to Sheridan ill which from Chicago maybe hour and half. Plan was to just say no and get the gifts...reminded me of the one episode of kings of queen if anyone seen were they went for free TV.... anyways, we got there the place was nice got our tour came back to table (lots people there) kept saying no not sure, so a lady came over to discuss then another Guy came 3at once.. finally said no, guy says well then guess no dream vacations.i was pissed at that cause i can if i want to..Guy walks away seemed pissed and everyone else left..another lady comes and says u sure and we said yes were sure....we were leaving and yes the deal seemed good so I caved and got it, signed everything yada yada yada...went from 90min to 6 hours... We go home do some research and decide after reading small print 5 days to cancel, lets cancel so today I sent a FAX and certified letter....yea were out of it!! Lol. Funny cause the Guy on the phone at there corporate office said oo your one the lucky ones and laugh but couldn't say much cause recorded conversation. We still got our gifts :rock: anyone have one? Is it really worth it? Seems good but not for me, I realized it pays for your stay not flights, cars, activities etc.. realized even after its paid you still pay dues and pay the price go somewhere which equals a good amount still.. I'm just rambling because i can't sleep.

They're super high pressure sales because in the end, you get screwed and they make tons of cash.
