Another question. ENTERTAINMENT BOOKS
Does anyone here purchase Entertainment books here? Or have used them before?
One of the advantages of this is that you get 50% off of rooms all over the place and I have called a few hotels and you really do get the discount. I'm wondering however if it is worth it to buy the book. And if you use the coupons, do you still get the points on your memberships?

I think the book is useless for the hotel discounts (but valuable for the other offers, such as 2 for 1 dining card). The 50% discount is off the rack rate price of the room. Most of the time you can easily find a room well below the rack rate.

JimC: I appreciate your point. However, there have been times for me when the Entertainment hotel rate was the very lowest I could find. I always ask what the rate is and compare it to other rates. I have often saved money with an ENT rate.

50% off benefit is hit & miss for me. When available, they have been the lowest rate for me.
Right now, it's offering $5 off and free shipping until end of the month.
