I was considering a weekend away and then considered just going away with Lucas for a few days. I ended up getting sick and feeling like crap for a week now so any travel would’ve been a bad move.

I had a busy week filling out Kim’s entries for IHG Priceless Surprises. Mail-in entries needed to be postmarked by February 14. I dropped Kim’s entries off in two batches- 40 envelopes on Thursday (2/11) and the remaining 54 the following day. Now we’ll wait to see how long it takes to start receiving the Priceless Surprises e-mails.

To date I’ve received all 94 e-mails with 90 of my prizes posting to my IHG account so far. My total winnings from the promo came to 53,500 IHG points.  Continue reading Cathay New Years Offer, Sucky White House WiFi, Beyonce’s $10K Airbnb, Man Pees- Plane Diverted, World’s Oldest Hotel, Traveler Skills & More- The Rehash! →
