No room at the inn (HHI) for Thanksgiving

I'm so bummed-I called for Member's cash ressies at HHI for either a 1 BR or a 2 BR for Thanksgiving next year. Nada! But the second CM I spoke with (yes, I was so shocked I called right back) said that it's possible that MC decisions haven't been made and for me to call back weekly. They don't take a waitlist for MC. This year we almost ended up on a mattress in the front picnic area-maybe next year we will! One way or another we're getting our Thanksgiving dinner at Signe's. We're waiting on ROFR on a HHI contract, but it's a stripped contract, so we can't use those points yet when/if the contract passes Disney's ROFR.
Update 1/7-We got it! I called back this morning and they had Member's discounted cash available for that week. If anyone knows my saga with our reservations there this year, you'll understand how I verified about 4 times that our reservations were for the 6 nights 11/22-11/29 and wrote down the confirmation #. So maybe we just had to wait for 2009 to reserve? Anyways, I'm just thrilled!

We were going to try to get a ressie on points for Thanksgiving next year. We will be visiting my niece and her family in Charleston for the holiday, and wanted to try to treat them to a small vacation close to home. Guess I'm probably SOL. Bummer.
