Have you ever been to a time share presentation?
Where was it?

Gatlinburg Tn for Fairfield resorts WILL NEVER DO THAT AGAIN

They told us it would take about an hour. It took over 3. We received 2 Ripleys aquarium passes and $50. They called every week for over a year trying to sell a package to us... I finally told them I was reporting them to the FTC. The phone calls finally quit. It's not worth the hassel.

We went to one a few years ago in Helen, Georgia. It was at the top of the mountain and the sales office was at the bottom, about 5 miles down the mountain. The sales lady was so ticked off that we said no and we wanted our free phone. I thought she was going to leave us at the top to walk down that stupid mountain. I told DH then that he should never ask me to do one of those again! It was the most miserable experience I ever had. I wouldn't wish one of those on my worst enemy! :(

Ours wasn't as bad as that, it was for a place on Heavenly Mountain in Nevada...about 15 minutes up from South Lake Tahoe. You could pick from a small list of free stuff (before the presentation)...so we picked 2 free meals at Harrah's buffet and 2 free tickets to the Improv at Harveys.
It was worth 90 minutes I suppose, the total retail value was $90.
