TopCashBack $34 Credit
It's all over the blogs - TCB is doing a $34 hotel credit. For one-night stays in cheap places, especially for business travelers who get this reimbursed, this is a great deal.
You go from TCB to BA.com and make the rez there, and TCB rebates you the $34 at some point. I find TCB to be pretty reliable these days.

I'm hoping to use this for some SPG mattress runs. Does anyone know if a reservation made through BA.com qualifies for SPG night and stay credit?

awesome deal... however, the website says cancellation fees apply for hotels but it does not say how much those fees are... not very transparent... does anyone have more information on this?

Not sure about the cash back, but BA has a screaming deal on the Riviera in Palm Springs. It SAYS that the resort fee is included, which is an additional $35 a night on other websites. $419 for 5 nights on my dates, and $706 for the next cheapest I can find....

I've now done about 12 car rental and hotel searches at various places around the world and I think I've found one deal -- on a one-day car rental in Dublin (which I still need to check the rules on -- if I can find any rules). This is one of those offers that sounds too good to be true, and generally is! The coverage is limited and the rates generally suck. But run your travels through their search engine and see if you get lucky. If you have enough travel planned, you're bound to find something that's better than the alternative. But this is definitely NOT like Expedia or Orbitz giving a $34 cashback -- it's much, much more limited.

There are no really cheap rooms available. But some hotels in Bangkok or Frankfurt can be of good value with that code. Check dream hotel Bangkok....

Like others mentioned, this works best in cheap cities. I found deals in Bangkok and KL. A bit more than other websites, but crazy cheap if the cash back tracks.
Does anyone know if you can use this for multiple bookings? Or is it limited to one per account?
Don't forget there is a TCB referral conga that could get you (or at least another flyertalker) a referral bonus, too!
