Tips & Ideas
There have been offers in the past giving $100 back when spending $500, so it’s awesome to see a deal giving $200 back as that’s a 40% discount when spending exactly $500. Note that this is only valid at select brands of Marriott’s.
The terms exclude gift card purchases, but that likely refers to the fact that buying a Marriott gift card online won’t trigger the statement credit from this Amex Offer. If you can find a property from one of the eligible brands listed in the terms above that sells gift cards, buying it from the front desk should trigger the Amex Offer.
If you already have a physical Marriott gift card, you should be able to ask a front desk to reload $500 to it even if then don’t have physical cards themselves. The only potential issue with that is that if they don’t have physical cards themselves, they might have no clue as to how to reload Marriott gift cards.
Thanks for the heads up. Got this on P1’s Marriott Bonvoy Business ($150 off of $500 spend), one of P1’s Business Platinum’s that for some reason gets duplicative offers ($200 off of $500 spend), P2’s Amex Gold ($500/$200), P3’s Amex Plat AU card ($500/$200), and P4’s Amex Plat AU ($500/$200).
Offer also appears for me as $150 off $500+.
When these kinds of offers come out, does anyone actually have any success buying gift cards at the front desk of hotels? Literally every single time that I have asked that of a hotel, the hotel has said they do not sell gift cards. Any success in the Washington DC area, in particular?
