Below are the details of the promotion. This is actually slightly better than using the trick where you can buy 5,000 points for $40 when you make a cash &amp; points reservation because you can get 6,000 points for the same price with this promotion.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/first2board.com\/giddyforpoints\/files\/2013\/08\/IHG-100.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-1431\" alt=\"IHG 100\" src=\"http:\/\/first2board.com\/giddyforpoints\/files\/2013\/08\/IHG-100.png\" width=\"529\" height=\"242\" srcset=\"http:\/\/first2board.com\/giddyforpoints\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/13\/files\/sites\/13\/2013\/08\/IHG-100.png 529w, http:\/\/first2board.com\/giddyforpoints\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/13\/files\/sites\/13\/2013\/08\/IHG-100-300x137.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 529px) 100vw, 529px\" \/><\/a><br \/>\nBelow is a sample of how many points you can buy.<\/p>\n<p>1,000+1,000 bonus for $13.50<\/p>\n<p>3,000+3,000 bonus for $40.50<\/p>\n<p>5,000+5000 bonus for $67.50<\/p>\n<p>10,000+10,000 bonus for $135<\/p>\n<p>20,000+20,000 bonus for $250<br \/>\nIf you know of a specific property you would like to stay at and purchasing points would be cheaper, then this is a great option. Also if you need to top off your account for the next award then this is also a good option.<\/p>\n<p>Here is an example of a property where the above promotion would be better than out right reserving the hotel. Virginia beach Holiday Inn is going for around $290 during labor day weekend. You can also redeem 35,000 points which you can buy for $225 from the promotion.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/first2board.com\/giddyforpoints\/files\/2013\/08\/holiday-inn-VA.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-1432\" alt=\"holiday inn VA\" src=\"http:\/\/first2board.com\/giddyforpoints\/files\/2013\/08\/holiday-inn-VA.png\" width=\"679\" height=\"240\" srcset=\"http:\/\/first2board.com\/giddyforpoints\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/13\/files\/sites\/13\/2013\/08\/holiday-inn-VA.png 679w, http:\/\/first2board.com\/giddyforpoints\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/13\/files\/sites\/13\/2013\/08\/holiday-inn-VA-300x106.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 679px) 100vw, 679px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/first2board.com\/giddyforpoints\/files\/2013\/08\/36k-points.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-1433\" alt=\"36k points\" src=\"http:\/\/first2board.com\/giddyforpoints\/files\/2013\/08\/36k-points.png\" width=\"531\" height=\"43\" srcset=\"http:\/\/first2board.com\/giddyforpoints\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/13\/files\/sites\/13\/2013\/08\/36k-points.png 531w, http:\/\/first2board.com\/giddyforpoints\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/13\/files\/sites\/13\/2013\/08\/36k-points-300x24.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 531px) 100vw, 531px\" \/><\/a>Take\u00a0 note that you do forgo earning your 5 points\/$\u00a0 when using your priority club card by buying points since you are buying it though <a href=\"http:\/\/www.kqzyfj.com\/click-7068390-11347127?sid=G4P\" target=\"_blank\">points.com<\/a> and not directly from IHG. You will still earn 1 points\/$ however.\u00a0 You will also forgo any bonuses points earned from staying at the hotel since it is considered a reward night.

However, these places are usually seem to be places less likely visited so good luck finding a hotel on the list you might actually use.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><em>Disclosure: The above post contains an affiliate link and the author may receive a small commission on any purchases made.
