We love talking about points and miles all day, every day. That's why we've decided - in addition to our full-length Frequent Miler on the Air podcast episodes, we're going to share a little something to enjoy during your Tuesday coffee break too. Not a full hour of discussion and analysis like you'll find on the full episodes, but a mini version with a single topic of focus. On this "Coffee Break" mini episode, Greg and Nick chat about a pair of Marriott offers for 5, 50K free night certs (and who this opportunity may be good for.) (02:24) - The consumer card has a lower spend requirement...but does that mean it's the better option? Check out the Marriott consumer card here, and the Marriott business card here. (03:26) - What is the Marriott "matrix of doom" and why are business cards easier for navigating the matrix? (Read this post to find out which Marriott cards you're eligible for.) (06:13) - The business card is the only option for stacking. (06:36) - Is this a good offer (regardless of whether you get the business or consumer version?) (08:38) - What are the drawbacks of free night certs? (10:50) - How does using a cert impact the fifth night free benefit? (14:23) - Let's review...is this a smokin' hot deal for everyone?
