Guess things are tough all over :) Marriott just offered me $325 visa card/600 DP/40,000 Bonvoy points for sitting through an "update" on the new Sheraton/Westin integration at Manor Club next week. May be willing to waste some time on that since the program is not out until next month and I can easily say I will wait to see what actually comes out. Surprised they are offering so much since more people are travelling.

Much of what you get offered is based on your profile. How often you tour, when you last toured or what you own already. They may also increase the offer to fill seats in the sales room. If volume moving through is low, they need more buts in seats, so they increase the offer. Timeshare sales is all a numbers game. More tours=more sales. We took 600 DC points last year on a tour at Grande Vista (signed up while staying at Cypress Harbour)

WOW…better than my offer….we will be at Crystal Shores this weekend for a week..and my offer was $175 visa gift card or 25,000 Bonvoy points or 400 DC points…Cheap in my estimation,to waste time getting an “update”, I’m really not interested in..going to run it past the Mrs.
