Do you happen to know someone who works for Starwood? I'd suggest asking that person.

That's why I asked if anyone would like to share!

That would be against company policy.

When you hear that Starwood has implemented a StarStranger rate, let me know though.

This thread is hilarious.

If anyone works for Polo Ralph Lauren and can offer me their discount, that would be appreciated.

I'll be your friend, Jenne716, but it won't get you an automatic discount at Starwood.

JFKSFOLAX_friend sounds pretty friendly, too.

But Starwood Lurker sounds a little creepy.

"Star Friend"? "Star Stranger"? I feel like I stumbled into either a David Bowie video or an L Ron Hubbard book.....

Neither of whom qualify for StarHOT rates. (But Starwood Lurker does!)

As would you, if you traveled with him, it would appear.

Only if we stayed in the same room.

That's true. So I suppose that if David Bowie and L Ron Hubbard traveled with him, then they also could benefit. It was foolish of me to make any assumptions about whether or not Starwood Lurker is friends with, travels with, or is related to either of them. Nonetheless, I won't bother editing my earlier post because I certainly would not want this thread to end up being an awkward read.

I think L Ron is disqualified due to being dead. I don't room with dead people.

David Bowie would be an interesting roommate, but I wonder if he could tolerate snoring from both myself and the wife.

Actually, not as far off as one might think. Timberland has an annual employee sale (i.e., discounts on Timberland products for employees, but the employees aren't on sale ). Employees are invited and encouraged to share their discount code with friends and family.
