Before my son was born, my husband and I traveled extensively.  While I like getting gifts, I’d much rather go on a family trip if I had the choice.  One of the things we decided to do awhile back was to join a couple of rewards programs so that we could make the most of the money we spend on everyday purchases.  Thanks to Mom Central, we were recently introduced to Priority Club Rewards (PCR).

Once you sign up (it’s free!), you’ll begin earning points by shopping with your favorite retailers.  Simply submit your PCR information at the time of purchase.  PCR partners include a wide variety of retailers including over 40 airlines, 10,000 restaurants, and select credit card companies.  Point redemption is easy and can be used for hotel stays and brand-name merchandise.  What’s great about the program is that points do not expire.  You don’t know how many times I’ve waited to save up enough points for a program only to find out that some or all had expired.

If you prefer staying in the company’s preferred hotels, you have the option of moving up through the various levels of membership depending on how many nights you have stayed.  I encourage you to check out Priority Club Rewards as you plan your holiday shopping.
