19% tax makes it almost $150 to save 10,000 points. Almost to the point where a full points booking makes more sense. Except no DSU and no stay credit...
I have a C+P DSU for Dec 13 for 3 nights but was originally booked under just points. I switched it because I was worried that I wouldn't get a ocean view on just points. Now with a ocean view suite for $476 all in versus $2150 for C rate I'm very happy.
