I LOVE mattress runs, collecting credit cards for miles, meeting the minimum spend and never using them again (honest!), staying at price mistake hotels for bragging rights, airport lounge memberships and an alumni of the 2010 Chicago DO.

However, I will not disclose my miles and hotel point balances on a first date. I know there are other girls that will put out but I'm saving mine for "Mr. Right."

I never realized I was a rentable commodity. I am getting concerned Mrs. Jayer has been looking too longingly at the list of resorts participating in the Starwood almost an FFN promo. She even made some comment that I had strayed in letting Starwood Gold lapse to save Hyatt Diamond.

Sounds like if you find the guy, you definitely need a miles/points pre-nup.

How about a husband who pays for F and suites with $$$? No need for status and upgrades.

this thread is useless without pictures and statistics especially for the part about mattress runs

I guess those who ascribe to 'for richer, for poorer' need not apply!

This thread made me !

They stayed in a really dumpy motel in that movie.

So are you saying you want to be carried off the factory floor to be with Richard Gere and spend the night at the motel 6?

You could have picked Pretty Woman .. much better hotel in that movie.

Me too. (And thanks, OP, for the LOL thread.) One miles/points maven in the family is enough for me. One of the many things I love about my wife is that she loves the upgrades and other perks when we get them, but is satisfied with much less. (Hmmm...I wonder if that applies to her choice of spouse.)

Tier Match

Poptarts, I can give you "Tier Match" for Hyatt Diamond as long as you are OK that I have also given "Tier Match" at Hilton to my other GTG hotel Lover

There is special credit with companion pass status on LUV- I am accepting suitable female applicants.... (Thank You for the great idea PT


Then wear the gold hat if that will move her...
If you can bounce high, bounce for her too...
Till she cries, 'gold-hatted, high bouncing Lover..
I must have you!

I meet all the criteria (and I will throw in SPG Platinum and HHONORS Diamond too), but I REFUSE to fly with carry-on only (although I do do that every now and then, but want the flexibility in case I have to bring something back).

And like etsmyers, I'm happily married but the wife and I have an "understanding" since I'm on the road a lot
