Interval International has been running numerous promotions each day.  Some of these have been worthwhile while others have been a pass. 

Today, they are allowing you to upgrade your membership to Platinum for 50%.  This is valid on 1 or 2 year options.  Basically, you can upgrade to Platinum for $49 for one year or for $98 for 2 years. 

This is a solid deal in my opinion.  Platinum members get $50 off Getaways so taking one Getaway in the next 1 years will pay for itself.  In addition, you will receive guest certificates for free instead of the $59 fee. 

I think it is worthwhile to upgrade and there is little downside provided that you will use  the Getaway option. 

Hotels.com is a good online source to make hotel arrangements.  They provide competitive rates to hotels and are easy to deal with.

Today only, there are providing an extra 10% all hotels using the promotion code "PASSPORT"

This can be a great opportunity to save on hotels that are not normally discounted or on boutique stays.  Additionally, this can be useful for stays of less than 7 nights.

hile this is not a timeshare, this can be a great deal if you are looking to stay at a fantastic property.  The Four Seasons Aviara (which is  timeshare) is located on the same property.  

For $399, you get one night accommodation and two days of golf.  The retail value is almost $1,000 so this is a great deal.  

This is limited as it is only available for about 3 more days.  Grab it now if your interested.
