Just had to pull the trigger on a couple of stays with Marriott to take advantage of their Megabonus Promotion (Two stays, one free night), although I would prefer to do this with Hyatt as FFN award stays are typically valid everywhere, whereas Marriott limits the free nights to Cats 1-4 .

(*Imagines conference at Hyatt HQ*)
Boss: "Well, looks like we don't have to offer much of anything as first quarter profits were up without a promo"
Staffperson1: "Yes, but people are expecting something big from us!"
Staffperson 2: "We could just keep postponing things indefinitely.."
Boss: "Tell you what, lets just wait until the first date of the promotion period and we'll throw them a bone (puffs on electronic cigarette)."
Staffperson 3: "Remember, I T department needs at least 1 month for programming"
Boss: "That's never stopped us before. OK, meeting adjourned"

Any day now.....I asked my personal rep today via email and she said "I think something is in the works because I asked if the G bonus points were going to be rescheduled and Management told me not while a promotion is running. I will let you know as soon as I hear anything."

Ladies and Gents,
The wait is basically over
. We will know very soon
I know we are all praying for a FFN:-: but I would at least prepare for the bonus points just in case. I dont want to hear pages of unhappy people on here complaining. Of course i hope its pages of super happy people happy about a sweat promo but
