I do a deep dive into the "iprefer" hotel program and why I think it's an underrated destination for Citi TYP transfers over cashing out or American Airlines. Sometimes the value is sitting right under your nose! I also review the Haven Riviera Cancun All Inclusive resort and explain why I've ditched Hyatt All Inclusives in favor of going back.

Susan and I play a spooky game of Guess The Deval, where we place our bets on Hilton, Marriott, Hyatt and IHG and what some of these hotels used to cost 10 years ago versus today.  Which programs have had a visit from the points reaper and which ones are more treat than trick after 10 years of slow devaluations??? We find out together.  The answers may surprise and scare you!
