On Oct 11th, I wrote about Marriott’s new 29 Ways to Win promotion.
I was pretty excited to see what I’d win each day. It was a great idea as it gets you to interact with Marriott and learn fun facts about each of their 29 brands.
Then, 4 days later, it sunk in that I had only won any points day 1. I did some polling on the MilesTalk Facebook group and figured out that, in fact, Marriott’s “29 Ways to Win” May Be Just “One Way to Win.” They were allowing just one total prize for all 29 days. Sure, you were getting a Grand Prize entry each day, but that’s not enough incentive for me to bother each day.
Today, in the Facebook group, MilesTalk member Paul F. indicated that he’d won bonus points again today. So I took a shot and lo and behold, 500 points!
I’ll be playing every day again now. You? Let me know on Twitter, or in the private MilesTalk Facebook group.
New to all of this? My new “introduction to miles and points” book, MilesTalk: Live Your Wildest Travel Dreams Using Miles and Points is available now.
Worked yesterday. Today says that I already played when I haven’t. So many tech errors Marriott
Try again…. I just tried a second time today and got 500 points….
