I am registering my family for the "Win Big Promotion and this is what I have:

Offers:

Try One and Done 1,000 points for first stay
Stay More and Earn More - 4 or 5 nights
Explore Our Brands - 2 brands
Book with Us - Book 2 separate stays on mobile or website
Survey the Win - Take a survey
Win in a Weekend - Stay 2 Saturday nights
Spend it to Get it - Put your stay on your IHG Visa
Live the City Life - Book 2 stays at select hotels
Win big - Complete all offers

Each person received a slightly different variation. The minimum was 50,000 points and the the rest of the offers were in the 80,000 points. The account that received the stay in select cities received the biggest offer, 107,600 points.

Life the City Life Hotels are located in:

Sao Paulo, Brazil
Vancouver
Montreal
Chicago
Denver
Los Angeles
New York
San Francisco
Seattle
Washington, DC
Mexico City

Needless to say, my sister that received the city life offer will not be attempting this challenge. She had redeemed nights in NYC, so I think that is why she received the City Life challenge, when no one else did. However, the cities are not near to us and would require her to travel to those places.

For the rest of us, I am going to have to look at the out of pocket cost vs our redemption to determine if mattress running is worthwhile.
