FREE NIGHTS — Marriott Bonvoy Boundless® Credit Card from Chase and the Marriott Bonvoy Bold® Credit Card from Chase: March 6

A pair of pretty great Marriott offers expire in just two days.

Marriott Bonvoy Boundless® Credit Card (referral link)

• Earn 100,000 bonus points after you spend $2,000 on purchases within three months of being approved for the card and earn a $150 statement credit after making your first purchase in your first 12 months. Expires on March 6, 2025.
• I hold this card because of the annual Free Night Award (starting year two) valued at up to 35,000 points. That’s worth the $95 annual fee. Plus, consider that the $150 statement credit after one purchase covers about a year and a half of that annual fee.
