I have a bad feeling a lot of properties are going to use this strategy.
Oh no. I thought I'd read that there were brand expectations laid out for this program and that, at minimum, they were to include a juice, hot beverage, fruit, and a bread/cereal option.

Is that not correct? Can a lurker confirm that a $12.50 voucher at a W would meet minimum expectations?
