Just got the mail and there was a big fat envelope from W Hotels. Inside was a Tumi Travel Wallet and note of thanks for my loyalty. I still wish I would have qualified for the Stay 10 promo but the wallet is a nice gift! ^

Did you have to register for this?
Its the least they owe me after my last stay at W TimeSquare:)

Actually, we had a fine trip, I was just disapointed with the place the 2nd time around.
but I would love a new travel wallet and I do go out of my way to stay in Ws....

How much 'loyalty' have you given them?

How much 'loyalty' have you given them?I really haven't been that loyal. Last summer and fall I practically lived at the Seatle W during a project stint there but I have only had a few stays at W hotels this year. Most of my SPG stays this year have been at various Westins and Sheratons. I don't know why I was selected. Also realize I was at home today and it came in the mail TODAY! Many of you may have this waiting for you at home as well.

I got one last week. I'd say about 40% of my Starwood stays are at W properites. Was a nice surprise gift, but definately not a promo!

I got that it too although I have only stayed at a W 5 times in the last 12 months or so.

who got these?

3,300 SPG members who had the most frequent eligible (read: paid) stays over the last 18 months. It was not a promotional offer. Just a way of saying "thanks for your business" from the W hotel brand.

3,300, eh? I feel so priviledged. Was disappointed though to read the T&Cs a block from the Tumi store in SF only to find out that the $50 gift certificate was valid online only.

You are better off ordering online anyway - no Sales Tax!

Hard to figure out-- Zakami had 5 W stays in the last 12 months (and received one) and I've had 5 paid W stays in the last 5 months, but did not :(

No love from W.

Compliments to SPG on treating their loyal customers this way. I have one of those wallets from a business meetings 5 years ago and it rocks. Mine is bulging to almost 3" thick, and travels with me everywhere, but aside from a bad zipper it's as good as new.

SPG could teach USAir a few things...

I also would not rule out the possibility that there may have been a dollars spent component to the equation. ;)

Is anyone planning NOT to use their certificate? I missed out on the Tumi promotion last year (had over 100+ nights, just none during the promotion period) and am looking to get something from their website.

If you are not using it, I'd appreciate if you can PM the coupon.

Thanks.

Perhaps. I looked it up and we only spent 5300. They may have been looking for a bigger number.

I know one of the posters who was part of this promotion and $5300 is nothing compared to what they spent the last 18 months.

?? I wasn't being sarcastic. I looked it up and that's all we spent. These were short, weekend getwaways. $5300 for 5 W visits IS nothing. I'll probably spend more than that at the Danieli restaurant ;)

I am a loyal W visitor, though. It would have been nice to be acknowledged.
