Did you get $100 from WestJet?

This morning I got an email titled “Exclusive offer for our newest Gold Rewards members” which states that $100 of WestJet dollars have been deposited into my account. I’ve never used my WestJet account before, just having Gold status through a previous status match. There are no substantial restrictions on using the certificate, other than having to redeem the $100 by February 28, 2015. I have no clue what I’m going to use it for… maybe a weekend to Dublin?

beVancouver – Up to $125 off a hotel night

beVancouver, a company of the Vancouver Hotel Destination Association, offers a popular promotion annually for a $50, $75, $100, or $125 AMEX Gift Card (which can actually be used to pay for the stay) on a hotel night at one of thirty-six downtown Vancouver hotels. This year, they’re also giving you a $50 AMEX Gift Card for each additional night on the same reservation. They enforce a three reservations maximum, that is, you can have as many nights as you wish, but you can’t have more than three bookings. The stay must occur by April 30, 2015.
