While I am a big fan of contests personally, I do not like to post them very often by the simply fact that they are a lottery of sorts, and the odds of gaining something is relatively slim.
However, I recently learned of the La Quinta Play and Stay contest, where guests can earn instantly up to 80 free nights.
You must connect to the program through your Facebook account to play. However, you will get at least 5 free spins per day. Bonus spins will be awarded by connecting with Twitter and inviting friends to play.
The reason I bring this contest up is because I tested it out and immediately won 1,000 free La Quinta Return points. I continued playing the game all weekend and have now won over 7,800 points, won enough collectibles to be entered to win 3 free nights, and am only 2 away from being entered in the five free night giveaway. While the free points come slow, and you have to rely on your followers signing up to earn free tokens (beyond the daily bonus tokens), we have already won enough for a free night and have until January 31, 2014 to add to our balance.
Free nights start at only 6,000 points, making the La Quinta rewards program the lowest point redemption plan out there. These points will be excellent for those short one night stays that our family takes during our road trips.

Wow! That is surprising (or lucky) that you have that many points in just three days! I have been playing since before Christmas (everyday) and have only accumulated 1650 points – most days I don’t get any, just “tokens”
Julie, I’m not up to 24,000+ points, but they come a lot slower than they did at the beginning. The real key is to get lots of people to sign up under you to get tokens for spins. The problem now is that many of us are learning there must be some secret limits because not all of the points won are transferring to our accounts.
