Are you going to get the 4th point benefit at Marriott?

Why not just stack points with the 50% bonus? What's the point of having status with multiple hotels?

Spg 4:1 transfer to Marriot = 12 if you want Marriott points

I have top tier status with 4 programs. Point is to have options. Quaterly promo usually dictates where I stay. OP, you should be switching hotels every night with SPG for 1k/night.

The 4:1 is clearly the benefit/hook to stay with SPG. Question was indeed for optionality - at the moment, not using Hilton chain..

City where I’m staying only has 1 SPG hotel. So can’t do that. But with in room dining etc, typically doing >1k/night

M1. R u saying u switch hotels every day?

How do you get 4:1 ratio?

Anyone have any experience with the executive membership for Costco and the Costco CC? Seems like it would be automatically 2% back for the membership perks plus an additional 2% with the CC and 4% on gas. If we're spending around $600 a year on gas and $2800 on purchases ($233 a month), that is around $148 in cash back. Minus the $120 membership fee is just $28. Which typing this post has made me realize probably not the smartest option with our current spend.
