Hello and Welcome to FT,
Does your spouse have a Marriott Rewards acct.? You can transfer points from their acct to yours.Do you have a Marriott Visa? You can get promos that often give you points for signing up.....I received 15,000 points and a free night stay. Not sure what offers are out now. Plus your Visa purchases add points as well. Good Luck, Deb-Indiana
