Our Verdict
They send you a personalized code which is required, so it looks like it won’t be possible to get this deal unless you received the targeted e-mail. I don’t see why anybody who is actually interested in this club would be tempted by a $25 gift card (although I don’t really see why anybody would be interested in this club in the first place).
That being said, this seems to be a pretty easy way to receive a $25 gift card. I’m sure Inspirato will send a lot of marketing material by regular post and e-mail, but it’s not like a time share where you need to sit through a marketing spiel so that’s a plus.
