Several travel blogs giving away 100,000 Starpoints August 20-24

Several travel blogs including The Vacation Gals, Vagabondish, Home Ever After, and The Points Guy are giving away 100,000 SPG points this week in support of the Starwood Preferred Guest credit card limited time offer of 30,000 points sign-up bonus. No need to sign up for the credit card to enter these contests and sweepstakes for 100,000 Starpoints.

Each blog has their own entry requirements and deadlines, but suffice to say that you can enter to win 100,000 Starpoints this week on four different blogs. And these odds are good.

All these bloggers are definite winners with each receiving a payment of 100,000 Starpoints for running these contests on their blogs to promote the Starwood Preferred Guest American Express credit card.

Enter to win 100,000 Starpoints at these blogs:

ThePointsGuy.com (190). One entry per person by Saturday August 20, 11:00 am eastern time.

TheVacationGals.com (14). You can enter once daily through Wednesday, August 24, 6 p.m. Pacific Daylight Time.

Vagabondish.com (38). Enter by Sat Aug 20 11:59 pm eastern time.

HomeEverAfter.com (60). You can enter once per day through Monday August 22 11:59 eastern time.

Number of comments/entries at 9pm Pacific time, August 17, 2011 is shown in parentheses beside blog link.

Most of these require work on describing on how you'll use the points, not just a random drawing. I'll save my time.

You still have to describe in detail how you would use the points
