Aka the Big Win Part 3.

Just registered, think a lot of the targets I will have hit by Monday, as stays count from last Monday.

 

[vitagen]

Looks winnable for me!

 

[plugster2011]

Not worth it for me. 20 nights, 4 Saturdays, 4 IC's. Plus a survey. For 36K + 2 nights or 50K points.

I have 3 sats and 3 IC's planned so a Saturday at the New Double Bay IC will complete both those. But only 9 nights - can't imagine it's worth slogging 11 nights for a bonus 2.

Have to wait and see what the free nights terms are. I'm long IHG points anyway - and this'll be 0-3 on the Big Win in terms of it being worth it to me.

For the record - stay 8 get 9600 - Done on the 9th
Stay at 4 brands - 12800 (hmm, could be tough, hate four brands when there are only three in APAC)
1600 points for two stays booked on the app, no cash back so pass
9600 points for two ICs - no minimum stay
7200 points for two Crowne Plazas
2000 points for booking a bonus point package incl breakie

19000 points or two free nights for hitting 6

I wonder if they will have more bonus offers during the program?

Now where are the PP specials for this month

 

[Kea 02]

Hey I agree. Where are the PP specials this month??

Stay at 4 brands - 12800 (hmm, could be tough, hate four brands when there are only three in APAC)

T&Cs say HIX is a separate brand to HI and there is a HIX in POM.

Edit...corrected a tangent I was off on!

They also say it is for stays until the end of the year, given the HIX is now next year for opening I am not considering it, and that's rubbery.

 

[Deleted member 29185]

My challenges are:
48500 + (19000 or 2 nights) for completing 5 of 6

1. Stay more =10000 (9 nights)
2. Explore brands = 19200 (4 brands)
3. Survey = 100
4. Foodie = 800 (spend $56)
5. Getaway bonus = 7200 (2 resorts)
6. Authentic experience = 11200 (3 ICs and resorts) .....odd wording, does that mean a choice of 3 or 3 of each?

I might go for it, or might not. Last Win Big I didn't worry about and this one is a long way short of the first win Big offer.

Haven't been past it for some months now, but it was almost ready back in March.......oh well, that's PNG for you!

I like yours better than mine burmans........

In looking closer at my offer, I've decided it's a bit of a waste of time unless I just happen to stay and collect some minor bonus points. Now knowing HIX in POM is not an option, I won't manage the 4 brands so that's 19200 points (single biggest offer) gone west.

My +1 hasn't received an offer yet, so I'll see if anything better comes to her, otherwise, this promo is not going to achieve anything much from me, I'm afraid.

 

[markis10]

I am somewhat intrigued by the points or nights aspect of the bonus, most if not all local offers would barely equate to a nights stay yet the other offer is two nights at any hotel, seems a no brainer if it is usable when points are.

 

[JohnK]

These are my challenges:

Complete 5 of 6 offers and earn 24,000 bonus points or 2 free nights (2 free nights at any IHG hotel?)

Stay 9 night(s) at any of IHG’s 4,700 hotels worldwide: 10000 points
Stay at 4 brands:19200 points
Stay at 3 Saturdays at any of our IHG hotel brands: 5600 points
Stay at 3 Holiday Inn hotel(s): 5600 points
Stay at 2 InterContinental® Hotels and Resorts: 16000 points
Spend $56 on food and beverages: 800 points

Somewhat challenging. Terms and conditions not that clear. I am assuming I can skip the Intercontinental resorts. Stay Holiday Inn hotels doesn't have specific hotel requirement?

 

[blackcat20]

Complete 6 of the 7 offers and earn 18,000 bonus points or 2 free nights.
Stay More: 8,800 Stay 6 or more nights.
Explore: 9,600 Stay at 2 brands.
Book with IHG: 1,900 book 2 stays direct
Survey: 100 points
Foodie: 800 Spend $56 on food and bev
Authentic Experiences: 16,000 Stay at 2 intercontinental
Help you on your way: 7,200 Stay at two Crowne Plazas

I'm unlikely to hit all of them, but a couple are quite easily done with existing bookings (or re-bookings).

I think my offer is reflective of the fact I haven't been doing that much staying in IHG hotels recently!

 

[vitagen]

Damn just realised it ends 31/12 most of my stays are the first week of Jan 15

 

[SydneySwan]

Damn just realised it ends 31/12 most of my stays are the first week of Jan 15

You had better start rescheduling then!
