All Time….Low Like others in the points community, I spend my fair share of time inside the walls of various Walmarts. Over the years I’ve seen an experienced a lot of things in and outside of the Money Center. Last night I was in a store getting a couple of money orders and saw a

Poznan: Poland’s Hidden Gem

The Great Unknown It’s hard to find great places in Europe that aren’t flooded with tourists. Harder to reach and formerly obscure travel destinations like Albania, Montenegro, and even Georgia are all getting more tourism and attention as new hotspots for travelers.

What I did With My Marriott / SPG Points

Intro By now it’s no secret that big changes to Marriott’s merger with SPG are underway and others in the process of being finalized. Initially those changes were set to take place on August 4th, but that date has since been pushed back to August 18th. I assume that the dates are now set in
