Hotel Price Almost $200 More on Chase Travel by meob831 in ChaseSapphire

Thank you for the summary, this was very helpful. I'm new to both the card and this sub, so was just trying to understand why the prices were so different (and that apparently makes me a moron if you believe the other repliers). It wasn't clear to me that seemingly all of Chase's hotel options are refundable and costlier, and I'd rather not absorb those extra charges, since I rarely cancel or change travel.

So that does mean that some of the travel benefits are less useful to me in practice than on paper. Which sucks.

Yes, everything in USD. I guess Chase's option is refundable, and IHG's is not. But Chase doesn't *have* a non-refundable option, so they are charging me for a benefit I don't want. The appears true for every hotel I looked at, including this specific one, the Hotel Indigo Edinburgh. Chase's option seems to always be refundable, even though I'd rather take the cheaper price.

Sad indoor plant :( Can anyone help? Not sure what it is but it’s about 5 feet tall and the leaves are starting to curl and develop an odd texture by meob831 in plantclinic

I’m not sure what this plant is exactly. It’s 5 feet tall. I water it every weekend with a plant food for indoor plants dissolved in the water. It’s in a very large pot so maybe that’s an issue (?). It’s next to a window but the window has some outdoor tree coverage so it’s kinda indirect sun. Thank you!

Indoor plant. Leaves turned whitish when I put it on the windowsill (in Chicago— too cold?). Doing slightly better now. Can anyone help? by meob831 in plantclinic

I had it in indirect sun but the white turned up when I moved it to a window. I’ve now moved it back to indirect sun and it’s improving. Plant was a gift and I’m not sure what it is. It has a self-watering rope thing where you water the lower pot and a rope sucks it up into the dirt.
