I did find a $22 hotel (Atlanta area) and happily made a bunch more.
Anyway, I was able to up to 4 reservations for the same hotel and date. The only thing I did was to change the reservation name to different persons. Also it was frustrating that I have to wait 15-20 mins just to get the bid result, which make the process a pain. So which Atlanta hotel did you use?Yes, points.com does seem to run the conversion over weekends. But as long as you initial the conversion, it's the date points.com use for the record.

The $22 Atlanta hotel was in Norcross (or something like that.) Yes, I went a bit nuts with the priceline->AsiaMiles thing-- couldn't help myself-- them miles was CHEAP. Didn't think to change reservation name... should have. In any case-- I think I'm done (and darn close to the 250,000 miles max anyway
)Oh, and, Thanks to MazdaMP !! ^^

Missing Premier Health points
Has anyone gotten a response from [email protected] or have a phone number for Metareward? I have emailed them 3x over a 20 day period about not getting points for Premier Health points and have gotten zero reply. At least Premier Health answers my emails but they tell me talk to Ebay for the points. This level of customer service is non existant and makes me leery of doing any more offers of Ebay Anything if points won't credit.
Any advice? Thanks.

I signup up for PremierHealth, Ancestry.com, Audible.com, Consumerinfo.com and New York Times on May 8th. Everything posted promptly except the New York Times points. I wrote a detailed e-mail to [email protected], attaching my NYT subscription confirmation, on Monday and got the following [unsatisfactory] reply:

Fortunately, my e-mail address was the same for the services in question, but it would be nice if they specified that ahead of time. I then contacted eBay customer support, and the reply wasn't a whole lot better:
