I just checked my single reservation and the "price" in points is the same as yesterday. Went from Cat 7 to 8. It is a domestic beach resort where we have stayed before and liked (not an upscale place like mentioned up thread), so I am not real surprised. I got the res in anyway.
I held out 200K. I use them for visiting my specialist 2X per year, 300 miles away, for a 3 day series of treatment. If I can make enough to cover the lodging for these, I am good.
