Tumi, my favorite luggage brand, is having their winter sale — up to 40% off on discontinued styles and colors. This seems to come twice a year (most recently back in June) and items are available until they sell out. Even with the sale this isn’t cheap luggage. You won’t find any $35 wheeled carryons here. But Tumi is outstanding for the frequent business traveler.

5000 Free LanChile Points
Dec

2006
Through December 31, LanChile is offering 5000 points just for signing up for its frequent flyer program, no flight required. If you’re already a member, the link suggests that updating your account information will get you the bonus as well, although details on this piece are unclear. They’re a oneworld carrier, and have some outstanding award values. Starwood points transfer to them at 2:1 (with a doubling of the concommitant transfer bonus). For example 60,000 Starpoints yield 150,000 LanPass kilometers . You don’t necessarily want to park miles in LanChile’s program, as points expire in as little as 24 months and can only be extended by actually flying paid flights with LanChile. But it’s a useful program, and 5000 free points is a good start.

Wine.com price error: 12-month wine club is free
Dec

2006
Wine.com has ,a Holiday Wine club (in 3, 6 and 12 month periods) available, but the 6 and 12 month ones are shown as $0.00 while the 3 month one is $99.99. I was able to purchase the 12-month club and have not been charged (but as this is $0 rather than an actual price being charged I’d guess it won’t get honored). Choose the 6 or 12 month club and look for the $0.00 price. (Hat tip to Flyertalk’s UnitedSkies.)
Free Hotel Nights from Travelocity
Travelocity has a coupon offering $50 off a two-night ‘Travelocity GoodBuy’ hotel stay booked by November 30th (requires paying with Mastercard). Promo code is HOTEL50. If the discount code doesn’t work for you it’s likely that you have a Travelocity affiliate cookie on your computer (eg you clicked on a Travelocity link somewhere, such as from a cashback mall). Travelocity won’t let you use the coupon and pay someone a commission on the booking at the same time, so you need to delete these cookies for this to work. There’s a current Flyertalk thread on hotel stays you can get for free via this promo, mostly centered on Las Vegas properties. As one Flyertalk member observed, “just because the icon “Use MasterCard® and SAVE $50!” is not listed with a GoodBuy hotel… the promo most…

Holiday Inn Points Earn You Gold Golf Clubs and Unicycles

This has been out for a few months but it’s my absolute favorite commercial, I can watch it over and over and still laugh. But I’m weird. It’s a great spot on points, but never really tells you why Priority Club is a good program or even how to join. What action are you supposed to take from this commercial? (I guess you’re supposed to ‘look again’ at Holiday Inn because you can earn points?) But it’s sheer brilliance nonetheless.
