Daily Getaways great offers for weeks 3 and 4
Here’s a quick summary of the best Daily Getaways offers for June 4, 2014 to June 13, 2014.
You can get the best deals from the Daily Getaways I’ve marked as a “GREAT OFFER.”
Week 3:
Wednesday, June 4, 2014: Hyatt Points
Hyatt points can be used at any Hyatt worldwide
- 24,000 points for $260
- 30,000 points for $330
- 40,000 points for $415
- 72,000 points for $775
GREAT OFFER: Any of the Hyatt point packages
You can use Hyatt points at any Hyatt hotel
You don’t have to use the points as described in the Daily Getaways package.
Instead of using 2 nights at a Hyatt premium hotel (Category 3 hotel) for $260, like the Hyatt Place Waikiki Beach, you can use the 24,000 points for 4 nights at the 5 star beachfront Hyatt Regency Kuantan Resort in Malaysia.
24,000 Hyatt points gets you 4 nights at the Hyatt Kuantan Resort in Malaysia
Or instead of spending 3 nights in a suite for $775, you could spend 6 nights at the Hyatt Place Orlando/Universal (daily breakfast included) and take the family to Disneyworld, Universal Studios and SeaWorld Florida.
Spend 6 nights at the Hyatt Place Orlando/Universal near Disneyworld for $775 (or 72,000 Hyatt points)

Week 4:
I didn’t see any great offers, but there are a couple that could be good offers.
Monday, June 9, 2014: Marriott gift cards
You can save 10% on Marriott gift cards. But they can’t be used for advance purchase reservations.
Buying Marriott gift cards is an okay deal
Thursday, June 12, 2014: Avis
You can buy a one-day Avis car rental certificate for $33. But depending where you rent, it might be cheaper to wait until you’re renting a car versus buying a prepaid certificate.
