.....that we might see something like last year's non-targetted double points promotion for the fall? IIRC, that was simply double points if you pay with VISA, correct? No double nights on top of the double points? I am trying to finalize my fall travel schedule now, and would like to book some Marriotts in there, but I am getting free weekend nights with SPG and bonus points on some Crowne Plaza stays with ICHG -- but, nothing from Marriott. At this point, it would likely take some sort of double-double promo to get me to move some nights to Marriott, as it is tough to compete with stay 5 nights, get one free weekend night (though I wish I had either the 3-stay or the 10-4 with better cat choice offers)....but, it is really hard to compete with NO promo at all.
