My question is: has anyone ever heard of an outfit calling themselves TRAVEL AWARDS in Bonita Springs, FLA? It happens that the "gift" for attending the presentation was (is) a "free round trip to Hawaii, lodging, etc". The catch is the gift includes ONE round trip airfare and the traveler cannot travel alone (ie., at least ONE roundtrip airfare must be purchased from TRAVEL AWARDS). They have another requirement that one must send in a $200 "deposit refunded upon arrival at destination (Hawaii)". Is this for real? Any netters in Bonita Springs know about this promo? Any replies by mail or net appreciated.... -- mail: ihnp4!drutx!grm
