[Sold Out] 20% off Marriott Gift Cards at 1 pm ET Today

Daily Getaways is offering 20% off Marriott gift cards at 1 pm ET today (5/4/17). The thing is that there is only a tiny amount of cards available so you’ll have to be fast to get any.

A couple of data points on Payments Workshop indicate that these purchases might code as travel, so use your CSR or Prestige or cash out some Arrival+ points on the purchase.

yeah, I think the zillions of point/miles/deal bloggers have done a pretty excellent job of drawing so much attention to these things now that it essentially makes them unavailable to a majority of the readers they’re trying to help. Ironic, no? The double-edged sword continues to swing both ways.

I went through 2 checkouts entering cc info and everything, well before timer ran out and still got an error on each. Won’t be wasting my time with these anymore.

Ditto that. Unless they put up about 10X the had available this time, I won’t be wasting my time either. So that should give everyone else a bit more of a chance to win these lotteries.

Interesting. I refreshed (“F5”) at 12:59:50 PM ET (per the time on the task bar and think it was accurate since it is updated automatically) and got no “Buy Now” option, did again at 12:59:57 PM and the refresh ended around 1:00:00 PM, still nothing. So I quickly did my third F5, the page probably ended around 1:00:02? when I got the “Buy Now”! I quickly added it to chart and now secured my $500 Marriott GC :). I was one of the 200 lucky man in this world :).

“Thank you for your order!

Congratulations, you’re going on vacation! Here are your purchase details.”

BTW, I opened two internet browsers, Firefox and IE. I was able to add one in Firefox first and then quickly switched to IE. Had to do a refresh first there and then add the card into the cart. It was then that I started to get the “Try again” message. Never been able to get any further luck despite trying for about 10minutes when it started to show “Sold Out”..
