We did it 2 years ago because we got our Vegas(travaganza) rooms for free. Hilton Grand Vacations or something. -- nm - JaxSean Nov 6, 17:16 1
- ya thats pretty much like the one I was looking at....although this site seems to be only for Americans -- nm - J Nov 6, 17:30
My ex-wife liked to do stuff like that. We never did one for a trip, but we did some for other goods - Mr. Havens Nov 6, 17:11
We had some friends who had trouble getting their vacation. So Trish and I went to a couple and took the dinner certificate option. - crash davis Nov 6, 17:11 2
- The thing with this is that you go the presentation while you're already down in your vacation spot -- nm - J Nov 6, 17:14 1
  - That is different. It might be worth it if they stick to just two hours. -- nm - crash davis Nov 6, 17:21
Came close. Until I found out it was all day. Presentation. Bus Tour. High pressure sales presentation after. Not worth IMHO. -- nm - VMan Nov 6, 17:07 6
- Supposedly this is only for a max 2 hours -- nm - J Nov 6, 17:11 5
  - Until you find out you won the super secret fun prize. -- nm - Cuzzin Todd Nov 6, 17:15
  - You have more info than I about it. I guess it would boil down to whether you trust them on the 2 hour limit. -- nm - VMan Nov 6, 17:13 3
    - Ours was pretty short and sweet. I think it was less than 90 minutes. -- nm - JaxSean Nov 6, 17:21
    - thats what i'm wondering about lol adn I suck in pressure situations like that unless i'm in full on BMF mode -- nm - J Nov 6, 17:15 1
      - Reading more of the posts. If you're already there, you at more at their mercy too. -- nm - VMan Nov 6, 17:16
No, but Asspen is one of my all time favorite South Park episodes. -- nm - Cuzzin Todd Nov 6, 17:07 2
- If you don't do it right, you aren't going to have a good time. -- nm - Qale Nov 6, 17:45
- I just saw that one again the other day. The chair lift right back into the sales office is effing hilarious. -- nm - Trish Nov 6, 17:32
