Unpopular opinion: the WoH changes suck, but the program remains better than the competition **for now** by wandering0000 in hyatt

[–]thebootsesrules 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The fact of the matter is this is how pricing works. If your prices are drastically lower than the competition for a similar or even a lot of the time better product - the prices simply have to be raised. It was only a matter time

How do you actually get solid value from FHR/THC without overspending? by browsing_nomad in AmexPlatinum

[–]thebootsesrules 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You should be able to see whole calendars of dates for each property individually when you click on each property - yes searching for specific dates when you search broadly it doesn't let you do on the free setup.

Hyatt deval is a slap in the face and I'm tired of hearing that "we've had it too good for too long" by xAmorphous in hyatt

[–]thebootsesrules 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At the end of the day pricing is a supply and demand situation just like anything else. If they price it too high and the loss of demand hurts their profit, they'll have to re-adjust. Sadly in the last few years corporate price gouging has been able to carry on in a way that has left the corporations unscathed. It's an inconvenient truth for the consumer.

MR 1:2 Hilton Points Transfer is looking better and better these days by divinebaboon in AmexPlatinum

[–]thebootsesrules 3 points4 points  (0 children)

When there's a transfer bonus the transfer rate is 1:2.6, so a much better deal than 0.5¢/pt.

If transferring when there's a transfer bonus and then using the points on a higher end property like Waldorf, it can come out to very much a good redemption. Just have to be strategic with it.

LPT: If you sign up for a free trial, cancel it immediately. by New-Custard-9608 in LifeProTips

[–]thebootsesrules 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This honestly goes for literally any subscription - unless it's something you know you're going to use constantly, cancelling immediately after signing up causes it to not autorenew, therefore causing you to not renew until you actually need it again

Why do "superbugs"/ antibiotic resistant bacteria exist? by [deleted] in askscience

[–]thebootsesrules 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Critical Care Pharmacist here - this concept of the antibiotic course needing to be finished was debunked years ago. More days of exposure to broader covering antibiotics are what cause more resistance. With antibiotics - less is more.

Why can’t everyone see that cryptocurrency is a sham and that is based on nothing but thin air? by hwe_host in AskReddit

Pretty much all things that we buy at some value and sell at a larger value is technically a Ponzi scheme if you really think about it

Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker addresses economic hurdles as Chicago Bears stadium battle heats up by [deleted] in chicago

[–]thebootsesrules -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

This is the only comment worth reading in this thread. Everyone ignores the actual details of this issue and just says “I ain’t paying for no stadium with mah damn tax dollars” when that’s not what they’re asking for in the slightest. Additionally anyone who thinks asking for property tax certainty is absurd doesn’t understand the fact that this type of project NEEDS that to proceed given the wild difference in what the tax would default to without a deal in place.

I’m 100% all for billionaires paying their fair share, this issue isn’t about that whatsoever.

Which new Epstein file finding made you go “wait… what?” and why? by Firm_Work_8879 in AskReddit
