Coming Soon: @SPG Take Two

Starwood has announced its latest promotion on their website: “It’s almost “two” good. With the SPG Take Two promotion, you’ll earn double Starpoints® on all eligible stays from September 1 through December 15, 2013 — with no limits. Plus, you’ll get 2,500 bonus Starpoints for every five eligible nights you stay — up to 10,000 bonus Starpoints and 20 nights. The earnings are endless at over 1,000 participating Starwood hotels and resorts worldwide. Any takers? Registration opens at the end of August.”

You can text TAKE2 to 44264 in the U.S. or447950080934 in the U.K. and Starwood will send you a message when registration starts in a few weeks.

This promotion isn’t as good as some other promotions Starwood has had in the past, however, depending on how many points you earn, it can certainly add up to a nice bonus!
