Marriott and Air Canada currently have a points promo where members get 15% bonus points, has anyone done this before? Is it worth doing?

OP- sent you a DM

If you have a specific award in mind, it could be worth it but don't exchange just for the sake of letting the points sit there.

I might get roasted for asking such a basic question but - how much do you budget for eating out ($ amount or % of budget)?

Pre pandemic I was traveling 5 days a week and just used left over per diem on the one night I went out with friends at home. During covid I stayed home. Now that I’m fully vaccinated and are many of my friends they want to go out to eat/drink. During covid I moved from a LCOL to here so I’m experiencing delayed sticker shock at the prices. Any tips?
