Best Western: 17% off stays, but the bonus card expires fast.

Best Western Rewards is running a gift card promotion through September 2, 2026: buy $100 in gift cards, get a $20 bonus card. You can earn up to five bonus cards, effectively saving roughly 17% on non-prepaid stays. The purchased cards never expire, but each bonus card expires on February 28, 2027, so you need to burn them within about six months. This is online-only for U.S., Canada, and Caribbean residents, and cannot be combined with other promotions.

the play

Buy $500 in Best Western gift cards by September 2, 2026 to max out the five $20 bonus cards, then use the bonus cards before February 28, 2027 on stays you'd pay for anyway.
