Through August 28, register your SPG number for a chance to win 100,000 Starpoints from Starwood Preferred Guest. You can also earn additional entries by answering some trivia questions (you get an additional entry whether you're right or wrong).
Also, if you're heading to any Broadway shows, be sure to check out the offers for bonus Starpoints for select shows. For example, you can earn 6000 Starpoints per ticket to Sister Act, 1800 Starpoints per ticket to Chicago, 1200 Starpoints per ticket to The Addams Family or Memphis, etc. Note the offers are for full-priced tickets, so check out any discount ticket offers and do the math before booking.
Starpoints, the points you earn through Starwood Preferred Guest either by staying at Starwood hotels or via the Starwood American Express card, are some of the most valuable and flexible points of all the loyalty points out there. Not only can you transfer them 1:1 to a number of airline partners, you get a 5000 point bonus for every 20,000 points you convert to airline miles, yielding 1.25 miles per dollar spent. Starwood also has some of the best global coverage and top aspirational properties of the major chains (think Le Meridien, St. Regis, the Luxury Collection) and for mid-tier properties, it's hard to beat the Cash and Points redemptions. Check out our post When is it Worth it to Buy Starpoints which analyzes several Cash and Points examples. We've also analyzed Starpoints vs. some of the other hotel point programs in How Much are Hotel Points Worth.
We of course have some ideas (which we'll share in a future post) about how we'd use 100,000 Starpoints; how would you use 100,000 Starpoints if you won?
