Ha! Ha! Ha! Hardly. Man, wiith the 200K points bonus + an additional 600K purchased points during the 100% bonus offer, that puts me at 800,000 points for $3,099. Which works out to about 36 nights if I don't buy another 400,000 in 2027 and take it up to 1,325,000 points during the first 100% bonus purchase offer of next year. That equates to roughly $86 per night when including the anniversary free night and the 4th night free perk when booking with points; not to mention platinum status, etc. To stay at a Holiday Inn, a Crowne Plaza, Hotel Indigo or Kimpton/InterContinental/Regent/whatever -- depending on my mood and the rate -- anywhere! Be it the U.S., Mexico, Caribbean or Europe (which is where I'm at most of the time) so if that's not a "home run," then I don't know what is, dude. Get a clue first. Then bash.
