Can someone answer this for me please? Is it true that roommates of people who have already booked are not eligible if they live in the same household?

No, the T&Cs do not prohibit this. However, each roommate should use their own account and their own credit card, etc. There have been rumors of problems when two people book from the same computer, but I believe that some others have reported no problems doing so. I don't know whether this is a legitimate concern.

Roommates of Travel Holdings employees are prohibited from participating, so maybe such a rumor is because some people are not reading the full portion of this term or are misunderstanding it.

All participants should read the T&Cs!

Thanks. I called and they told me that they are supposed to tell people that they can't.

Based on the variations of replies that people have gotten from the Customer Support staff by email and phone, I don't think that you can depend on them for accurate answers. This is quite unfortunate since LMT has recommended them as a way to get questions answered about the promotion.

I think that it all comes down to individuals reading and understanding the T&Cs. If LMT varies from what is stated here, you may raise your concerns to LMT. IANAL.

When at the site, how does one know if the sale is on? Does the home page look different somehow?

do the have to have a booking period every day

Hi, I just read the new terms and conditions. This is what the say:

The Campaign may be held one or more times, in the discretion of the Company, during Monday through Friday, inclusive, for fifteen (15) minutes on the date(s) and at the time(s) designated by the Company (each a “Booking Period”).

I think that the key word here "may", and also the word "date(s)".

So does this mean that they don't even have to have 15 minutes a day?

They have to have it everyday. That is what they have been promoting everywhere.

It would be bad, specially because of last Friday's email:

World for $1 fans, please disregard the previous hint you received - this message was stuck in our email cue for too long and today's sale has already occurred. So, below you will find a fresh new hint to get you ready for Week 2 of the sale. So, take the rest of the day off, get prepared this weekend, and join us again on Monday!
