Need Help from the Veterans
Ok guys trying to make the best of this wondering if you guys can help. I have the Marriot Reward Chase Signature card, I have an upcoming group stay in Nov, Its a block of 10 rooms for 5 nights. What is the best way to maximize this purchase. I have seen all the threads, last year I used the amt code and purchased 5,000 in gift cards on the marriot card and it worked out perfect this year it seems all the deals are over. What would be the best way to go only have a few weeks left. I appreciate all the help.

You can only get points for 3 rooms. So you should put the rooms under other peoples names so they can get points for those. Probably you referring them is the way to go you each can get 2000 points per stay. If you pay for all the rooms on your card you will get 5 points per dollar for that spend.

At this point just trying to maximize the gift card purchase, I already have an arrangement with the hotel for 35,000 bonus points for the stay plus it goes down as a meeting stay. Just trying to see if there are any other better options then cardpool right now, Should have pulled the trigger on the AMT earlier.

There's currently (if you hurry) a deal on twosmiles.com for 15% off. Limit $100 (so you'll need a lot of credit cards) per card. Code is SHARESMILES.
