B/W Promotion Code
Besides the AAA and other codes that you can find via the site map on the website, there is a promotion code box at the bottom of the page for booking every hotel.
I found the following code online and it knocks a few dollars off some of the rates, but it does have a 3 day prior cancel policy as far as I can see.
WEBONLY
Enjoy!

Don't know if it's the same everywhere, but for BW Lahaina, TWITTER1 just came back with the red no-go message, while both WEBONLY and TWEET1 gave a "manager's special", which was $8 more than the "internet only, pay immediately" that came with the drop-down price menu.
Wishing for more codes or point bonuses : (

I'm stuck on $86 with BW ... no GOV rate ($70/77) there. It's my most expensive hotel stay so far this fall: $62 Xmas & $69 T'giving (promos) $77 New Year's (GOV).
All I can say is join AAA, AARP--or Google some corporate codes if you like to live on the edge.

Best Western tweeted recently to try the code(s), so it is YMMV depending on property and dates.

And from their Facebook Deals page: FB100
PS - I also have codes 01418260 and 01494790 listed in my Hotel Deals forum thread. Again, YMMV. All worth a shot!

The Manager's Special rate (WEBONLY or TWEET1 both give you that) is not totally useless, but it depends on the property.
There are two BWs close to SNA. The Santa Ana "Plus" gave me a Manager's Special rate at $2ish under the otherwise-best rate (which was the Internet Special rate), so I bit on that one. OTOH the Costa Mesa (on Newport Blvd) brought up a Manager's Special rate which was about $7 more than the otherwise-best rate (advance purchase), and even several $ more than the AAA rate, so forget it there.
When you use a special code like WEBONLY or TWEET1, it doesn't bring up most rates, just the special rate associated with that code (Manager's Special) and the full rate, or something like that. You have to go back and check again with the special code removed to see the other rates. Given that, I consider it pretty sneaky that they created this code which is sometimes better but sometimes much worse than the otherwise-best rate! I bet a lot of people who find that it saves them money at one hotel will assume it always saves them money, and in that case are probably giving BW more money overall than if they had never tried the code!
You can only get savings out of this code if each time you're doing a search you try it both ways...
Btw, just like the Internet Special, I find that at many hotels you can book up to a few hours before your stay. In that case, you're not risking anything by "full payment at time of booking" (which when you book that late, isn't necessarily what really happens anyway).
