I also recently got the 9,000 points for 9 brands (plus 1,000 extra to try Tribute) and I maxed out on the Sheraton nights last summer. On balance, I'm not treated too badly. OTOH, please target me!
These targetted promos do indeen embitter some
if atleast some of their promos were more rewarding that would be great but it sure seems more rewarding at other chains lately...
Don't get me wrong I love SPG and their hotels but if other chains are offering more how can one justify sticking with one chain!
No other chain has sent me any targetted promos either but atleast their promotions reward more then just stays of 2 or more nights!
Lets hope the fall promotion atleast includes one night wonders 😃
