Doc--Thanks for the "heads up". But I hope you can help me out here. Is this the booklet of coupons that, at least at some point in the past, was called "Travel Bonus Folio"? It used to come approximately quarterly. I always made use of at least a couple of the coupons in each booklet.

Thanks in advance for any clarification.

Frankly, I was a little disappointed... none of these look really useful to me... & most of my weekend rentals are for 2 days.

Since I got 2 packages, for some unknown reason, if anyone wants and extra coupon or two, please ask.

I haven't gotten my package yet, although I am expecting to get one. To Rich G, if the certificate is 2 nights for the price of 1, why couldn't you use it? If you can't I certainly can!

I will now examine more closely everything I got. That's what's great about FlyerTalk... I don't always have to read my own mail!

I've been Gold for about 6 months have never seen any of these coupon booklets. Prior to that, I was Silver for about a year. Any thoughts.

Also, I received my Amtrak Guest Rewards packet today and Marriott is a partner. However, in terms of Marriott, they speak of 'flex rewards'. I don't remember this type of Marriott award before. Perhaps this an upcoming change?

Are there different booklets being distributed? A co-worker received a book in the mail today (Silver Level) and when I looked at it I did not see any 2-for-1 weekend coupons.

Platinum here, too, nothing received. What is the package called? I want to call Marriott and extricate one from their grasp.

It's called Elite Exclusive Offers (gack!) Winter 2001. LexPassenger said it came last week. Here's the list:
  • 2-for-1 Marriott weekend night (not valid at the usual suspects)
  • 2 car class upgrade from Hertz (Compact through 2 door sporty)
  • Buy one entree, get one free at Renaissance
  • 20% off 2 consecutive weekend nights - Residence Inn
  • Buy one entree, get one free at Marriott
  • 20% off 2 consecutive weekend nights - SpringHill Suites
  • 30% off one night or longer stay at TownePlace Suites
  • 2-for-1 weekend night at Renaissance (not valid at a few)
  • $25 off a Hertz Leisure Weekly or 3+ day Weekend rental
  • Stay 30+ days at ExecuStay, get 10,000 points
  • 5000 free magazine points
  • Point Savers at 11,000 ppnight at some Residence Inns, and 15,000 ppnight at various Marriotts and Renaissances

There's definitely a few we'll use.

Could there be any coincidence that the voting for the Freddies is upon us and they included a Freddies ballot with the coupons?

Nyah, no way!

OTOH, if I vote for any Freddies, I probably will vote for Marriott (certainly not for an airline!) They've been veryvery good to us over the years...

Surely, no Freedie votes for Marriott from these quarters at this time- but it's a start!
