I did! Going on my honeymoon later this year so was worth it to buy a bunch in bulk and book

Wasn't there a 20% gift card deal earlier? I didn't like the points redemption value.

It's not really a good or bad deal. Cost works out to 0.78 cents per point and TPG values Marriott points at 0.08 cents.

Decent deal if you need some for an upcoming trip

Price does not equal worth

Hi! My husband had a pituitary tumor apoplexy less than a year ago that took 90% of his sight rendering him unable to work.

I give her a nice bonus and raise each year. Do I pay it once as a good will gesture? She has other clients too that she drives too.

I really feel like I’ve been dealt a really bad hand in my life. It feels like no one gives me a chance. Whether it’s a job I know I’m qualified for, or someone I’m interested in. Even things that appear to be good at first end up sucking. I know I should be grateful for what I have and that so many others are less fortunate. But I still can’t help but think that for a person in my position, given the opportunities that I was given, I am just a complete failure and nowhere near what I could be.
