While week 3 of the Daily Getaways travel discount promotion was available last week, week 4 has just been announced. While I haven’t been particularly fond of any of the week 1 and 2 promotions, there are some in week 3 and 4 I am eying big time! Also, if you have no idea what I am talking about it regards to this Daily Getaways nonsense, make sure to read my prior post from last week here.

So overall I am very excited for the Wyndham Reward points – I purchased these last year. I am going to look into Hilton and Hertz, but other than that there are no others I am interested in. The value of each travel deal will really depend on your upcoming travel desire. Prior to each day, I will post a more detailed explanation and analysis of the deal, which will include my recommendation. Now let’s hope that week 5 includes some discounted Hyatt points!!

Have any of you purchased any of the deals from week 1 thus far?

    I grabbed 75k of the PC points, as I did last year. I’ve used for NYC Staybridge stays in past for good value, and saves me from doing the sketchy cash&pts shortcut. Also gives me another year of Platinum elite. Not worth much by itself but did same last year and leveraged status into others across the brands, so I have a real soft spot for it. Also getting it this way saves need to waste a Chase app on the PC card when I have others higher on the “priority list” :)

  • SB said,

    @greek2me What other programs were you able to leverage your PC status in? I’ve got PC Status for about another 6 months and would love to leverage it into other programs if I can.

    SB – You can status match at many of the hotel chains, although some only allow challenges (i.e., Marriott). Hilton is actually one of the best for status matching.
