Ok, so now this has pique'd my interest and I'm trying to reconcile points between what I have received and what I THINK the number should be.

Is the Annara spa in Kauai contracted out or no? How do I find that out. My guess is that I didnt get points for the nearly $1,000 I spent there.

I didnt expect Valet to be counted so I removed that along with independent shops (like an on-site Sunglass Hut). Although its interesting that I could still bill that to the room and pay it with Costco certs.
