"Congratulations, you have been chosen to receive complimentary Gold Preferred Guest membership through February 2006." :cool: ^ ^

Anyone else receive this offer?

Thank you for activating your Gold Preferred Guest(R) membership.
We know you'll enjoy the many valuable benefits that accompany
your elite status, including:

- Three Starpoints(R) for every eligible U.S. dollar spent -- a 50%
bonus over Preferred members
- Automatic upgrades to a Preferred Room at check-in*
- Dedicated, elite-level check-in and 4 p.m. late checkout**
- A complimentary newspaper each weekday morning

YOU'RE AS GOOD AS GOLD. (AND YOU CAN BE NEXT YEAR, TOO.)

To help you retain your elite status next year, every stay counts as
two from August 1 through November 30, 2005. (For example, stay three times
during the promotion, and you'll receive credit for six stays toward
elite status for another year -- through February 2007.) It's that easy!

I guess they appreciate her business. (eg her employer pays $380 pn at the W Union Sq.)

Ooh.. With 10 weeks of SPG stays coming up this could be helpful before I get Gold at week 9...

This is targeted, right?

Got this too...nice unexpected treat!

I just joined Starwoods as I will be staying at the Westin in Stamford, CT, every other week through the end of the year and would love to get the immediate upgrade to Gold. Any ideas on how I can get this offer?
