The short answer…
…because I don’t need the points right now. Specifically, I don’t have a fancy trip coming up to…say…Bora Bora, Paris, or Hong Kong. This current 100% bonus is great. And if you’re looking to book one of those luxury hotels, it’s a killer deal. But if you’re planning on hoarding the points (as I often do), then this is far from a no-brainer.
Maybe I’m a jaded old fart, but I agree with my buddy Tim. He wonders if all the recent IHG promos are leading to the “D word.” Could it be another…gulp…devaluation?? Without basing my answer on any information whatsoever, I’d have to guess the answer is yes. And probably pretty soon.
