What is the best way to sell an orlando timeshare?|193681

This timeshare is located near walt disney world and goes by a point system (no specific weeks used)

It doesn_t hurt to try craigslist but it is not an effective selling tool for timeshares (doesn_t hurt to try though).

The most effective way to sell is research and working with a good company.

I made a successful sale of my Mystic Dunes timeshare (Orlando) using sellmytimesharenow.com

Here is the research I did before choosing a company

1. I checked the BBB report on the company
2. I made them provide traffic and offer reports
3. I acted like a buyer on search engines and only inquired with easy to find, top ranked companies
4. I searched online for complaints about the company.

All this took me a couple hours (the final decision took days!)
I also posted on free sites at the same time and recommend you do the same as well.

I wish you the best in your venture!

You can visit http://www.mytoursguide.com and find a good number of articles and very useful tips to learn timeshare options worldwide. One can even get a free timeshare as a promotional offers from travel companies.

We are in the same boat. Try redweek.com. Lots of good information on how to sell _ where. We are to the point where we want to give ours away!

If you don_t have a lot of money for advertising and you don_t want to pay a percentage to a realtor. You might want to try craigslist.com it is free.

Timeshares were an _80s phenomenon_ and can hardly be given away today. Most buyers finally realized that the hidden monthly costs are much more expensive that just renting a condo. Good luck. Try doing a Google search on _Condo Buyers._

What are some Chicagoans recommendations for things to do in the Chi?|104108

We are staying in the Chinatown Hotel. We are looking for inexpensive activities to do during our 4 day stay. Also looking for opinions on living in Hyde Park, Fuller Park, West Loop, and Back of the Yards. Thanks Chicago.

Depends on when you_re staying here. If you_re coming here soon, it_ll still be a little cold, so you_ll probably want to do indoor stuff like the museums (which have free days ... call first), Navy Pier, etc.. You can walk through Water Tower Place, look at the stores and slowly start to feel really poor (just kidding). Don_t know if you like to go out and party but the Metromix website has a list of bars with drink specials ($5 martinis, cheap beers and mixed drinks, etc.) Check out
http://metromix.chicagotribune.com/barsa��
and click on the little calendar thing on the right side called _bars and clubs deals_ and they_ll show the cheap bars. There are also a million little restaurants in the city with good, cheap eats. Pick up a copy of Time Out Chicago magazine when you get here. It lists bars, clubs, gallery openings, cheap plays, cheap restaurants, etc. It_s a pretty handy compilation.

As far as living in the neighborhoods you mentioned, they_re all pretty decent. West Loop might be kinda pricy, though. But Back of the Yards is a new, developing neighborhood with lots of rehabs. And all along South Halsted street from about 35th St. north to Jackson is being rehabbed. Lots of new art galleries, lofts, shops etc. The entire neighborhood around the University of Illinois-Chicago has been remade. It_s a little pricey too, but you might want to look into it. Hyde Park is a traditional old diverse neighborhood that close to the lake and the Museum of Science and Industry. You might be able to find some cheap place there though. You should probably look into a few other place. There are other neighborhoods besides those that are nice and have cheap rent. Not sure how much you want to spend, though...

good luck

Yeah, you can do all that, and, then, go to a Cubs game.

try one of our famous pizzas at UNO_s or Lou Milnotti_s . Navy Pier boat ride . millinum park (free). Walk down Michigan Avenue Mag Mile Near North side. Visit water tower (both of them).

Fishing for carp in the Calumet River

Free stuff to do while in Chicago...Lincoln Park, Dearborn _ Division area LOTS of things to do and inexpensive as well. But you have to eat at 5 Faces on Division and Dearborn. It_s a whole in the wall place with hot dogs, burgers, fries, pizza puffs and cigarettes if you need them.

Please just go to 5 Faces. You won_t regret it.

How can I get from LaGuardia Airport to 1568 Broadway in New York?|178301

So this will be my husband and my first time in the city. We really would like to find the least expensive means to get from the airport to The Double Tree hotel on Broadway. We are trying to avoid cabs, but can we take the subway or a bus to the hotel? Please help asap! Thanks!

Here_s how to get from LGA to the Double Tree Hotel in Times Square.

Step 1: purchase a $4.50 MetroCard from any Hudson News stand at the airport and take the M60 bus from the airport to the Astoria Blvd subway station.

Step 2: at the Astoria Blvd subway station, transfer to the Manhattan-bound (westbound) _N_ or _W_ subway lines (Yellow Line on the subway map). Take either line from Astoria Blvd to 49th Street. The transfer between the bus and the subway at the Astoria Blvd subway station is free.

Step 3: at 49th Street, exit the subway at the south end of the station (47th Street) and you_re right there.

I hope this information is very helpful. If you have any questions or need travel directions while in town, just drop me a line by clicking on the avatar and e-mail icon in the profile. I_ll be glad to help.

Good luck

The easiest is to get on the Q33 bus from any terminal in LaGuardia to the last stop (Roosevelt Avenue) then go into the bus terminal building and take the E train (downstairs) toward Manhattan to 42nd street/Port Authority. You can walk from there.

At the airport look for metro card vending machines in the terminal near the exits and buy metrocards to get on the bus and subway. The bus takes coins ($2.25 but you would have to buy a metro card anyway to get on the subway)

Take the M-60 bus to Astoria Blvd which is one stop from LGA
Go upstairs and take the Downtown N or W train to Times Square
The often suggested Q-33 bus is a slow crowded local bus once it leaves the LGA property .....not so with the M-60 to the N / W combo

take the shuttle, only about $14

It would be simpler for a first-timer to take regular airport transportation from LGA to midtown on the West side.That address should be walkable from 42nd St.

take the M60, it will take you to Broadway, then get on the subway at 116th and Broadway.

Walking is the least expensive way to go!
