But I have a question (well, a couple)...I've tried putting "SPG50" into the Promotions Code box, and get the error message...do I SERIOUSLY have to call? To say "check this hotel for these dates"..."ok, now check for these dates"..."now these dates"..."let's try THIS hotel for these dates"..."how about THIS hotel for THESE dates"...
Yes, seriously.
Am I missing something as to how to check what 50% off "rack rate" might be...Yes, I know what "rack rate" means, but it's never listed...
Am I wasting my time with this pseudo "gift"?
Some folks find the cert. very valuable at expensive properties. Otherwise, they aren't worth much. Many of these are given away on the Coupon Connection forum.
Tell me stories of your scores with great hotels at great prices...
Overseas, higher priced properties, are your best bet.
