    Yet another thought: they've gotta have a limit of how many people can buy into this, right? Not sure how many diplomat/presidential suites and penthouse suite(s) they have. But we only have about 300 days left...

    I just signed up as well for the $2,000 deal.

    I would like to conga on is as well and will offer $550 to each person if three people participate with me successfully. Your cost would be $1,450 and mine will be $1,650. My referral link is below. Please pm me to chat. Payment will be made to you via paypal promptly upon receipt of the refund from the living social people. (I am new on this board, as we all are, but am a 1,000+ poster on FT.)

    This looks too good to be true! So, I spend $2k and get Platinum for life, which includes a complimentary EACH year, along with 2 complimentary room upgrades AND 2 complimentary suite upgrades!!!And of course 1 night in the San Fransisco property in the Presidential suite (or Diplomat suite)...I am soooo tempted but something in the back of my mind says this just can't be true...If it was a mistake air fare I would book and ask questions later but here it's a 3rd party involved that is more of a Groupon clone:)

    I called LS and asked about this. As of right now, 78 had been sold. There are two different rooms, so they could go above 300 theoretically. The guy at LS said "while no one knows for sure how many packages there are, I can't imagine there are too many more." Obviously could have been a sales pitch, but we talked about days left this year and that's when he offered up the opinion. My (random) guess is 100 total.

    The real race will be to book as soon as you get the voucher code!

    I c
    I called living social and they said there is a 5 day refund option. It also says this on their website.

    Has anyone called the property to confirm the actual deal?

    Two rooms as in two diplomatic suites? or two different suites that are not the same?

    Do you achieve Platinum just by 10 stays? If so, what's a big deal?

    I just completed my purchase using NYBanker's link. I don't know how many others have used his link but if I am the first one, then there are two slots left off of that link. I just thought it'd be useful to reply here so that we don't get into the awkward situation of having 5 or 6 people buying off of the same referral link when only a set of 4 can share.

    I'm in the process of using NYBanker's link as well. So that makes 1 more.

    You're right that it's not a big deal. But if you want the lifetime aspect of it, without worrying about stays so you can concentrate on other hotel programs, it's pretty good to know that you have it waiting for you when you need it.

    If your initials are NL, then I just got notice of your purchase via an email from LS. I will post when there are three buys so as not to waste for others.

    A free night every year in the suite for the rest of my life if pretty much WAY worth it right there.

    Any chance we can get Randy to pick up the Penthouse package and have a "do" in San Francisco ?

    Indeed, 10 stays or 30 nights. I usually manage about 15 nights a year over 4-7 stays only though.
