This hack may work for other things too but I've only noticed it on hotel reservations.

Sign up for the loyalty program for a given chain and then look for a room on the date you are traveling. Select a room and everything but stop just short of making the reservation. Then just kill the window.

Within a few minutes, I get an email from the hotel chain off for $50 off my next stay, along with a reminder to go ahead and book that trip.

This happened to me twice in the last week.

Worked with my Raycon earbuds. I wasn't sure I wanted to buy them. So I stopped. Couple days later I got a 50% off offer. Thought what the hell and bought them. They are better than my Bose ones and have lasted longer. I'm half deaf so I don't need high quality.

Hope the room in Perryton smells better than mine in Dalhart many years ago. Was downwind of a high-density feed lot.

Nobody said you have to drive to New Mexico. There are planes.
