Got a paper in mail, you won two free round trip airline tickets. Just have to come listen about our new travel agency. Luxurytravelpromotions.com Said bring drivers license and credit card?

Did you enter this contest? I guessing not. It sounds like a scam to me. Do NOT give your credit card number to them.

These offers are NEVER as good as they sound. After wasting my time of more than a few, the last of which would not give me what I was promised I made a stink, a lot of people turned around and left before even listening to their spew.

I get offers like that once or twice a week... they all go into the shredder. My time is more valuable than any trinket they are willing to offer. And in this economy... people are not just giving out good stuff like they were 10 years ago.

I view any and every such offer with a gread deal of suspicion. ID theft is rampant, never, ever give it to anyone who YOU did not initiate a real transaction with. This is not a real transaction.

After making an appointment I found that their offer is valid only if I'm married or living with someone and that we both attend. I'm not in that situation so they said I wasn't eligible. I'm not sure if that's legal as their offer said nothing about that. Also if you go to their website, you'll see the presentation is 90 minutes long!

AND they rarely give you what they promise FOR attending...

Yeah I've gone to a few... sometimes gotten a meal at a restaurant I knew was good... but when its all over... I feel my time has far more value that any trinket they may offer.

After the last place tried to weasle out from giving my what I was prommised I put EVERY offer straight to the shredder. My time has value to me. Even if I am sitting in front of the TV... a car cost money to drive... and not just the fuel costs.
