it may be worth finding a 99 dollar stay
I chose the free night. How much do you think its worth in terms of selling it? Also, would I have to check in, or if I reserve and no show, will they bill me anyways and then it will be counted as a stay?

If anybody plans paying cash at any spg hotels and doesn't need status (or if they do I'll become gold) I'll give $25 towards your stay to make it with my spg account
+1 (except that i'm not gold)

My wife has two SPG accounts. They both qualified for the promo. Think we'll be able to take advantage of both free nights?

It says
"šAn eligible stay is one or more consecutive nights paying a qualifying rate in the same hotel, regardless of the number of check-ins or checkouts."

Does this mean the free night is only in the hotel in which you had a paid stay?

SPG Bonus Beginnings using points?
« Reply #31 on: October 19, 2012, 03:22:51 PM »
I have an offer from on my 2nd SPG account; if I stay between September 3, 2012, and October 31, 2012, and 4,000 bonus Starpoints are mine. Does anyone if I will get them if I use points for my reservation?
I am sometimes accused of overthinking things. I am still mulling over whether that accusation has merit.

Has anyone had any luck booking any random cheap night, and not showing up, counting as the paid stay?

They won't work  -  I don't personally know of any but there are hotels that will check you in even if you don't show up if you call and ask them to (you may have to know someone who works there)

Is this to gain a status?
