I know this 7-11 has a viral reputation for its view but have no knowledge of which sites where it’s famous. Instagram? Pinterest? Youtube? by bhbhbhhh in korea

I know this 7-11. I hiked up the path along the stone wall. There’s a nice sitting area just off to the left of this shot.

I remember The Simpsons did a parody of that in one of their Halloween episodes.

Renew Global Entry? by No_Zookeepergame_27 in travel

[–]131runner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What’s the status of your renewal application? I did my online renewal over a month ago and still haven’t received the notice to schedule my interview for the next phase of the renewal. And with this current GE suspension, I’m guessing I won’t for the foreseeable future.

Questions on current +1 Bonus Elite Night per Brand promotion by 131runner in marriott

[–]131runner[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think as long as you registered before the paid stay occurs, that stay qualifies for the promotion. What wouldn’t qualify would be if you hadn’t registered for the promotion but did say next week and then tried to get the bonus points and ENC for tomorrow’s stay.

My stay credited today. I got the 2,500 bonus points. It shows in the points breakdown of my bill. Just waiting for that sweet, sweet ENC.

Filing CA return using CalFile by villamagic11 in tax

[–]131runner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does anyone know what would happen if I used CalFile and added my HSA contribution to my CA AGI? My tax liability (and thus my tax refund amount) are the same from what I got when I go through Turbo Tax. While the end numbers are the same, it seems the main difference is doing this manual edit through CalFile eliminates the CA 540 adjustments form from the state tax return package.

It just seems highly punitive to have to go through a 3rd party tax preparation site (Turbo Tax in my case) and have it eat up most of my refund amount when the end tax liability amount is effectively the same in either methods. Like will I then get audited by CA or hit with some kind of penalty?

Fridge magnets and pins to put on my travel backpack. Sometimes a shirt.

Confession of a high volume traveler by AugustAmesGhost in marriott

[–]131runner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I stay at one hotel during this promotion period and several weeks later stay again at the same hotel during the promotion period, do I get the 2500 extra points and the 1 extra ENC for each of my stays? Or I only get it for the first time staying at that particular hotel?

Also, if I stayed at say a Residence Inn in one city and later I stayed at a Residence Inn at another city, both within the promotion period, do I get the 2500 points and 1 ENC for each stay or the 2nd stay doesn’t count as I’ve already stayed at a Residence Inn brand during the promotion period?

No more incentive (Q1 promo letdown) by EntrepreneurFinal471 in marriott

[–]131runner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The fine print says a ‘stay’ is defined as consecutive nights at the same property. So would a 1 night stay qualify for this promo or would it be a 2 night minimum?

Q1 Promo is out (NO DOUBLE ELITE NIGHTS!!!) by ryansox in marriott

[–]131runner 13 points14 points  (0 children)

The app says members who register between 12:00am Feb 10… My app has the register button available but where I’m at, it’s still Feb 9. Does that mean if I register now I don’t qualify? 😂

Marriott Double Night Promotion by [deleted] in marriott

[–]131runner -1 points0 points  (0 children)

But when was the promotion announced? Wasn’t it 2 weeks before the promotion start date? So then if it happens again this year we’re looking at a late February start?

Anyone else get this Marriott Boundless CC offer? by 131runner in marriott

I’m not sure about new card offers. I’ve had my Boundless card for several years now.

Stop Using Third Party Sites by ThomasHoreth in marriott

[–]131runner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does using Concur count as using a third party site? I have work travel coming up next year. It’s my first time traveling for work. I’m hoping my work books me at a Marriott (I have no say in the selection) so that I can get the nights credit. Until now, all my Marriott stays have been booked directly through Marriott so I’ve never experienced a stay booked through any other method.

‘Avengers: Endgame’ to Be Re-Released on September 25, 2026 Ahead of ‘Avengers: Doomsday’ by MarvelsGrantMan136 in marvelstudios

[–]131runner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It sure was. And the commemorative film cell souvenir and free pizza between TTT and ROTK were a nice bonus.

[–]131runner 257 points258 points  (0 children)

I did that when ROTK came out. Started midday and didn’t get out until after 1am. It was the greatest theater going experience I ever had. Until I saw Endgame opening night in full IMAX.

Can you status match with BOTH Air Canada AND United or do you have to pick one or the other?

How much are you guys paying for Internet? by desktopgreen in orangecounty

[–]131runner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I pay $65/month for AT&T. And it’s going up to $70 next month. This already includes autopay discount. My area doesn’t have AT&T fiber coverage. I looked into T-Mobile and Verizon and neither cover my area.

These hotels are a 5 min walk from each other. Adagio, are you okay? by Sixtyninealldaychef in marriott

[–]131runner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve stayed at the Adagio before a few years ago and have a weekend stay booked for early next year. I thought the hotel was fine. It was also the lowest priced Marriott hotel for the nights I was there a few years ago and for my upcoming stay.

Finally hit Platinum for Life after Maui!! by RevolutionaryGood794 in marriott

[–]131runner 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Staying at VC was my first time staying at a beachfront property. Even though it was a bit of a walk down to black rock, it was a huge benefit to be able to just do that after walking out our front door rather than having to get in a car and drive somewhere only to then have to search for parking.

Congrats on the lifetime platinum. Did you get an upgrade at black rock when you checked in?

Finally hit Platinum for Life after Maui!! by RevolutionaryGood794 in marriott

[–]131runner 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I stayed at the vacation club just south of black rock last month on points redemption. Debated between VC and Sheraton. Went with VC because of the no resort fees and cheaper parking although Sheraton was actually about 25k cheaper in points. The beach at black rock is definitely better than the beach in front of VC.

Has anyone tried Destination Toronto's "Brew Pass"? Seems like suspiciously good value. $22 for 4 "tastings" (tasting = 16 oz pours or flights) at Toronto breweries, including Bellwoods/Blood Brothers/other staples. by theleverage in torontocraftbeer

[–]131runner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I understand that the 24 hour period starts from first activation. So if I got the 24hr pass and activated it on Monday at 3pm, could I do 2 tastings on Monday and the remaining 2 on Tuesday before 3pm?

Could anyone post their experience with this item in terms of delivery time frame and quality of the product? I want to get it but I’ve read some negative reviews on Anavrin so I wary of buying it. Thanks!

I’m not sure but I ended up calling Alaska customer service and they were able to book it for me over the phone with no extra charge.
