As well as the daily Inside Flyer Advent Calendar, which you all need to go and enter, IHG have also launched theirs, and it’s called “Where’s Iggy”. As well as maybe winning prizes, you can also earn yourself a guaranteed 2,500 free IHG points if you visit every day!
The Snowman-themed IHG Advent Calendar is available at adventcalendar.ihgrewardsclub.com. If you head there, then find Iggy the Snowman hiding in a different city-scape each day, you’ll be entered into a draw to win a prize. IHG Rewards Club members who supply their number will get another entry, as will sharing to Twitter or Facebook
However, less clear from the landing page, but much more important for us points-hunters, is clause 10.1 of the T&Cs:
If you are an IHG® Rewards Club member you shall receive a bonus five hundred (500) IHG® Rewards Club points for every five (5) consecutive days you enter into the Promotion.
As long as you remember to enter each day from today to Christmas, and enter your IHG membership number each day, you’ll earn 5 lots of 500 points, so 2,500 free IHG points!
That’s half a discounted points-break night, and more than enough to stop your points expiring. It may even be enough to push you over the line to your next status level before the end of the year.
So, get on over to adventcalendar.ihgrewardsclub.com ASAP, and find that snowman!
(Handy hint for those with small screens – make sure you use the arrow in the city picture to scroll down if you can’t see the snowman, the city picture is bigger than many screens, and for day 1 at least he’s nearer the bottom)

This is helpful, thanks everyone
William says
i dont see it as cheating as they give you the link to the catalogue, but it’s a faff and a waste of time, so sharing like earlier posters 😀
Andrew H says

William says
Only keeping your idea going 😉

Today I didn’t go through to the enter your acc number page, when I click to submit details it states already submitted today.
Does their system after a few days via cookies remember your ihg acc number automatically?
William says
Adam – for me it asked at teh end., offering an etra go for it, And then twitter/facebook. SEemed it was bit different :S
Adam says
It’s not prinducing the captcha images so won’t let me through to the page where you enter acc no?
Using other browser for other acc so remembers that already submitted entry today.
Andrew H says
Sorry, it posted my message three posts up!

William says
Thanks except i cant find the wretched Iggy!! I must be so dumb!! Any clues?!
Nick Burch says
Keep scrolling down, he’s right at the very bottom!
William says
Oh dear. that is embarrassing. I was secretly hoping there had been a technical glitch and was missing lol!! 😀 Thanks nick.
Rob Rixon says
Not that embarrassing. I had the same issue! I had to resize the zoom on the page in order to see Iggy… Oh and be careful when entering your IHG number, because if, like me, you use the scroll wheel on the mouse and your cursor is in that field, then the number changes! Likewise when you are entering the number of points too, so use the scroll bars.
William says
v true re the scroller – same for value – with my Apple magic mouse the top surface scrolls VERY easily!

Peter says
What are the prizes for playing the game?
Andrew H says
Thanks gents.
Tom Sumner says
Hi Peter. The daily prize is whatever the item is that you need to enter the number of points for. However, per the article, “If you are an IHG Rewards Club member you shall receive a bonus five hundred (500) IHG Rewards Club points for every five (5) consecutive days you enter into the Promotion.”
So the prize is down to luck, but you can earn up to 2500 points, guaranteed, if you enter the prize draw daily.

I think it’s 183,500 , it’s the only one that white.
Tom Sumner says
It’s wonderfully unclear, but I went with 183500 too.
William says
Oh dear – so sorry for confusing everybody (and then i got it wrong!). in the chaos i didnt see it demanded white! Oh well> looks like i’ve lost out on my 5 day roll!!
Rob Rixon says
It’s very unclear. And there is no mention of them having to be the white headphones. I’ve gone for 183500 as well, as ‘normally’ it’s the higher prize value.
Andrew H says

david says
I go with 183,000
SAMSONITE 82V.08.005 LITE-CUBE DLX 82 CM SPINNER CASE ALUMINIUM
They looks the same.
Andrew H says
I looked at that closely. The 183k version has a slightly different handle to the one displayed in the picture on the competition page. The 168k version looks a closer fit.
Tom Sumner says
Ha – I just had the same struggle right now. Based on a detailed “pixel analysis”, I’m in the 168k camp.

Just wanted to say thanks to Andrew for posting every day to save the rest of us the effort! Much appreciated!
Merry Christmas all!
Andrew H says
You’re welcome. Good luck to everyone. The 2500 points will be a nice consolation if we don’t win!
david says
Hi ,
Is someone here get the points?
Andrew H says
Not a sign. I’m not bothered about it, they’ll turn up eventually. One thing I’ve learnt from this hobby is not to fret when points don’t show up. They do 99% of the time*. Best thing to do is forget it. If you see loads of people say they’ve got the points, then go ahead and contact IHG.
*Topcashback and Virgin FC being exceptions, where I have to chase most of the time.
Andrew H says
Apparently there is a delay on these but they should start showing up in accounts soon.
Andrew H says
IHG aiming to post the points by 31 January, according to someone on Flyertalk.
Tom Sumner says
Thanks Andrew, confirmed:
Andrew H says
Got my 2,500 IHG points this morning. Huzzah! Anyone else?
Rob Rixon says
Yep! Added yesterday evening.
