or should I say "Earn a Free Weekend!" promotion

On the Marriott site:

https://member.marriottrewards.com/secure/WN.asp

With Marriott Rewards, enjoy a bonus weekend, plus get rewarded for your travel!

Earning your free weekend is easy! Just make five separate paid stays at any of more than 2,300 Marriott hotels worldwide between March 15 and June 15, 2003. You’ll receive one certificate good for two complimentary weekend nights at more than 2,100 Marriott hotels worldwide. This free weekend is in addition to your regular earnings, bonuses, and other privileges you receive as a member of Marriott Rewards.

Your 2 free weekend nights are redeemable at over 2,100 category 1, 2, 3, or 4 hotels through December 30, 2003.

Not a bad deal at all.. if only they would go to Category 5/6
