No worries, bro. You're one of my homeboys on here. I didn't take it personal.

3 hours for me. 3 1/2 to 4 for the average driving American.

Do you strictly deal with the Midwest only?

DMAC 01-10-2013 08:56 AM

Is it Holiday Hills?

Damn. I was hoping it was closer than that. I'll keep you in mind Flops. I'm looking to head out that way during the season.

No. That's a super expensive resort. I don't like quoting names because if they're not available I look like an asshole. There are choices, but only so many allotted. Grand Country, the Barrington, and Howard Johnson name a few. Howard Johnson is kind of a shithole comparatively speaking to other hotels in town, but that's the scope. This resort doesn't want you staying in a complete shithole, because they don't want you mad when you show up.

Me personally? I want my tours in a shithole when they show up, because I can use that as a selling point. Again, full disclosure.

If you are interested in coming to Branson for a little mini vacation I can get you set up for 3 days/ 2 nights in Branson with 2 show tickets, and dinner for $129. If you have other shows you want to see, or want to stay longer than that, I can get you discounts on the rest of your trip as well. This is an open dated trip. You have 18 months to use this trip, and can book 72 hours in advance. Be aware, 4th of July, Memorial Day, Veterans week in Branson are all high peak busy times. The further you book those weeks, the nicer your accomodations will be.

Yes, you will have to go to a timeshare presentation. **** what you've heard, those things aren't like they used to be. It's a 2 hour max time commitment, and they really aren't these pressure cookers anymore. The only pressure involved is the pressure people put on themselves because they want to buy. In fact, you will be given a card that shows the company in writing has agreed to no pressure, and a strict 2 hour time limit.

Yes, I will make a profit off of this. The timeshare company is willing to pay good money to see you, and that is how my wife makes her income. Should we book any trips through CP, of course I will make a donation to the website to cover expenses.

No. I will not be the person trying to sell you timeshare. Frankly, I wouldn't suggest anyone buy timeshare at retail prices, so I'm not advocating you actually be purchasing, and therefore wouldn't waste my time or numbers trying to talk you into doing so.

I bring all of this up with the idea of full disclosure. The fact is, coming to Branson is getting more and more costly, and frankly show tickets these days are getting close to $100 a pair, so this is a pretty rockin deal for anyone who wants to save some dough, and isn't afraid to say no.

Yes, I'm peddling my wares here, but I've been here for 8 years and have never done so. I also know that times are tough out there, and a lot of people may not be able to afford a vacation without doing something like this. So, here are the requirements. You must be 28 years of age or older, and you must make 40k a year or more. If you are 55 or older, no income requirements are made.

If you want to come to Branson, shoot me a PM, and I'll get you set up. You will have your choice of a few of the nicer hotels in town, as the company who you will be touring is one of the corporate resorts and takes good care of their guests. They're not all that way, but this one is, otherwise I probably wouldn't even throw this out there.

If for some reason I'm way off the mark and Austin, Phil, or one of the other mods isn't happy about this, just delete it and chastise me publicly. :)


If you are a golfer, there are a lot of really nice courses in Branson. Some are pretty reasonable, but some are pretty costly.

Bringing the fam? Don't even worry about it. I'll get you all set up as best as I can. I may even be able to provide some transport if your girl wants to bring the kids to see Branson. Brother, you just say the word and I'll make all of that happen without a timeshare presentation. I can't do much on hotels, but you guys can stay with me if you want. The show tickets, I can get discounts on.

Do you guys have anything for Vegas?

Mr. Flopnuts 01-10-2013 09:02 AM

And seriously, I'll scan paystubs on this thing. We're not going to make much money. This is a volume thing for the wife, and more of a service I wanted to provide to members here if they are interested in coming out here. I just tried to be as blatantly obvious as possible so people knew what it was. I didn't want people to think it was a non profit or something. We do make around $10-30 for everyone that comes. Ebolapox got paid more than that for booking them in the telemarketing room. :)

I don't, but I can get you hooked up. I can also teach you how to take about 5 of those presentations and make around $500. PM me when you want to go and I'll teach you the trick! Timeshare presentations are a great way to subsidize vacation costs anywhere that you go that is a tourist destination. JUST BE ABLE TO SAY NO! :)

Rasputin 01-10-2013 09:05 AM

I will try to remember this later this summer. Want to go to training camp this year & take vacation at that time. If my money situation doesn't get better no chance, but I'm hopeful that gets turned around by then.

Rasputin 01-10-2013 09:07 AM

I got a friend who takes part in those timeshare offers and has been on several great trips. Last time he took his wife to Hawaii.

I will be honest, much like you are. I'm just looking for a way to get to Vegas on the cheap.

I am not interested in making money or giving presentations.

Although, I will sit through one if necessary.
