My email says 'Stay Twice. Earn a free night. Unlock even more.' I think they had a similar promo before but can't remember the details...

Not a big fan of these. These certs can be hard to use, and I prefer the flexibility of points that don't expire. I'll be interested to see what type of promo SPG runs during the same time period and may end up focusing my efforts there instead.

I'm fairly new to Marriott promos. Do qualifying stays typically start the day of registration or are they typically a week or two out? Thanks.

I think you unlocked extra bonus points after acheiving those certificates. Hopefully they will be at least a category 5 and not a 4.
Much better than this past one of 2,000 points for the same 2 stays.

I miss the ~50k points for 20-25 nights. Have my fingers crossed for that one this time around. I have a goal to close the year with >1M points available. We shall see!
