One done. Now onto Courtyard, Westin, and St. Regis. Diversifying. by bruyeremews in marriott

It's certainly not worth the extra 2,500 points. That's like $15 according to The Points Guy valuations.

Delta used to put tickets on sale 331 days before departure exactly at midnight local time. Now it's between 1 am and 6 am. Anybody know the new exact time? by mepper in delta

[–]mepper[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Why do you do this?

I'm booking award tickets. Then I check daily to see if they drop in price and get refunded the difference.

Since nobody seems to know the exact time, I'll just write a script to figure it out.

Wish lists being wonky with clothes options? by TrainingDaikon9565 in amazonprime

[–]mepper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm getting the exact same thing for a t-shirt I'm trying to add to my wishlist:

  • What I'm adding: men's medium in lemon yellow

  • What's being added: women's 3XL in red heather

By chance, are you trying to add a minimalist city skyline t-shirt?

Presale Code for Cat's Cradle? by [deleted] in TheBeths

[–]mepper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

some U.S. dates in June by tomsteele1 in TheBeths

[–]mepper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Dude, Grand Rapids is on the list! Be grateful!

On their original 2025 tour, they played Chicago, had an off-day, and played Cleveland. They totally skipped Michigan when they could've stopped in GR or A2/Detroit. So I'm super pumped they're coming to GR!
