There’s a holiday tradition in my family that I’m not proud of. But it sure is fun!
Sometime between Thanksgiving and Christmas, we take a weekend trip down to Portland to do nothing but shop. (Okay, and drink coffee.) We hit thrift stores, the Pearl, art and crafts fairs (for which PDX is an epicenter), bookstores, and antique malls. And of course you know why. (Ahem, no sales tax, cough cough.)
And this year, we’re staying downtown!
In fact, I’ve simply got to share with you a lodging deal downtown PDX that is quite possibly too good to pass up. And I’ve got to type fast, because as of this writing, you have exactly four short days to take advantage of it. And you won’t find this if I don’t tell you about it. So, here it is.
The ultra-modern Hotel Modera is offering a Stay, Shop, Save special package for just $119 a night. Yes, that is $119 a night, which is a bargain for a hotel that first came to my attention as luxury digs starting at $198 a night. And as part of the package, you get free parking, a bottle on wine, Oregon hazelnuts, bottled water, an eco-friendly shopping bag, and discounts from various downtown retailers.
You must book your stay by November 15, but your actual stay can be up to the end of May 2010. Your reservation must be made directly to 1-877-484-1084 or click here and type SAVE (all caps) in the promotional code space when you click the drop-down under Special Rates.
See you in Portland!
