I agree about non-refundable rates. I was referring to rates that are available from the web site and can be cancelled, such as Senior or AAA. It's when I compare a bonus package rate to these rates that I find the points are too expensive. I haven't done it for a while, but my recollection is that the additional points were in the 8-12¢ range, which I considered too high. But as I said, I don't recall doing this analysis during a promotion.
