This offer is listed on the Westin Charlotte Facebook wall. There is no place to insert your SPG number when signing up for the Westin Charlotte Insiders email list. Westin Charlotte states SPG members will be contacted for their SPG membership number February 1 and 250 points will be awarded by March 1.

The Westin Charlotte Good question!  We will be sending out an email to request everyone’s SPG number on February 1st at the end of the contest.  Thank you for being a fan of The Westin Charlotte on facebook!

DealsWeLike posted this last night and One Mile at a Time picked up the offer too. Sign up fast since this offer may get pulled early once they realize on Monday morning that BoardingArea readers have created 8,000 new email subscribers and the hotel needs to pay out 2,000,000 points.

How to Enter Starwood Contest

• Entry period is January 24 to February 28, 2012.
• Like the Starwood Facebook page.
• Register and share what “vacation means to you” by submitting a photo, story, poem, or combination of any.
• Round 1 Voting Period allows voters to register and vote once per day for favorite entry. After February 28 a group of panelists will choose the top 10 entries. Voting results only count for 25% of the criteria used in judging finalists.
• The good news for voters is you get a sweepstakes entry for one prize of two free weekend nights at any North American hotel up to category 5 properties for a maximum 32,000 points prize.
• Top 10 finalists will be posted from March 6 to March 20, 2012 for Final Voting Round.
• The odd rule is it looks like voters can vote once for each of the ten finalists, but no more than one vote for any finalist?
• Entry with most votes in Final Voting Round wins Grand Prize of 100,000 Starpoints for two round-trip flights, $1,000 in spending money and up to 125,000 Starpoints for a 5-night hotel stay at any hotel in North America up to SPG category 6 hotel. (SPG category-6 hotel in peak season is 25,000 points per night. Fewer points are won if hotel costs less. Considering SPG has 5th night free I would think the maximum win is 100,000 points.)
• Next two highest vote entrants win First Prize. One random voting member also wins a Voting Sweepstakes First Prize. First Prize is two free weekend nights (Fri-Sat) at up to category 5 hotel in North America for a maximum prize of 32,000 points.

Complete rules for this Starwood Contest are here.

Hilton Facebook promotion special for up to 10,000 bonus points:

** Earn 2,500 bonus points per booking made between Tuesday, January 17 12:00pm (noon) Eastern Time Zone through Wednesday January 18, 11:59am ET for the Hilton Any Weekend, Anywhere Sale. This bonus may be earned four times, up to 10,000 bonus points with four bookings. The 2,500 bonus points Facebook offer is valid for one night stays.

How do I claim my 2,500 Hilton HHonors Bonus Points?

After you have booked your Any Weekend, Anywhere Sale stay, you will need to re-visit the 24-Hour Bonus Event tab on the Hilton HHonors Facebook page during the Bonus Event period (12:00pm ET on January 17, 2012 to 11:59am ET on January 18, 2012) and enter in your confirmation number and your Hilton HHonors number in order to claim the 2,500 Hilton HHonors Bonus Points. The Hilton HHonors Bonus Points will be posted in your Hilton HHonors account 4 to 6 weeks after your stay has been completed.

Bottom Line: While I typically suggest avoiding prepaid, nonrefundable room rates, the multiple promotion offers combined with the 2012 Q-1 More Points promotion make this one sale worth considering.

Four $100 one-night stays can potentially earn 10,000 bonus points through the Facebook offer and 4,000 bonus points from the 2012 Q-1 More Points promotion if these one-night stays are completed by March 31. Four nights can earn 14,000 bonus points in addition to the regular points for hotel spend.

One two-night stay booked January 17-18 during 24-hour Facebook special can potentially earn:

• 2,500 bonus points Facebook (1 stay)
• 1,000 bonus points Any Weekend, Anywhere Sale for two night weekend stay.
• 7,000 bonus points 2012 Q-1 More Points promotion for two-night weekend stay January 1-March 31, 2012.
• Total promotion bonus = 10,500 bonus points per two-night stay.
• Up to 42,000 bonus points after four two-night stays by March 31.
• It remains to be seen whether all these promotion bonuses will combine. These offers look to me like they will combine.
• Check 2012 Q-1 More Points excluded hotels list to see if hotel is eligible.

Hilton’s Any Weekend, Anywhere Sale offers discount rates for weekend stays from January 9-December 30, 2012 when booked by January 31. The discount varies from 20% to 33% on Best Available Rate depending on region and hotel brand.

How to Enter:

1. “Like” the I Prefer Facebook page.

2. Register for the Postcards from the Pacific Northwest Contest. Answer the weekly Pacific Northwest themed question with a 140 character “postcard” and you could win a two-night stay for two at one of the two weekly featured hotels.

3. The rules state the winner each week will be selected randomly meaning this technically is a sweepstakes since you do not need to win a postcard writing contest to win the free hotel stay. The Facebook page shows the 140 character postcard entries and allows fans to vote, but the rules indicate the winner is chosen randomly from the entries.

4. Inviting your Facebook friends to enter the sweepstakes gives one additional entry for each friend who registers for the I Prefer free stay giveaway.

5. Week One Prize Value = about $750.

Preferred Hotel Group is also a hotel partner of Choice Privileges.  Choice Privileges members can redeem points for select properties around the globe in the Preferred Hotel Group chain at rates from 30,000 to 60,000 points for a free night.
