It seems to me that under $100 properties is where you want to earn, and significantly more expensive properties is where you want to redeem, to get the most value out of the program.
But most redemptions already were highly unlikely to be anything close to getting “the most value out of the program”. I wouldn’t be surprised if most GoFast redemptions were for properties in the $100 or under rate range (or at least the $150 or under range).
