The Amazing Race 12 Spoilers

I've been to the St. Regis and I can attest it is an awesome hotel. I had relatives staying there and this is truely a 5star hotel. The rooms, the entire grounds are amazing. Here's the website: http://www.stregismb.com/
My first thought when reading this was that perhaps it was a prize they won for coming in first on a leg. But are the racers given their vacation prizes before the finale airs on television? For some reason I thought that they couldn't cash in their prizes until after the show aired? Of course I could be wrong.

:cmaslol Chateau that was hilarious. I will add this though, it can be hard finding a room in that hotel. seriously. When my relatives where staying there, they gave me the room number and I proceeded to get lost in trying to find it. There are two different wings and I went right (when I should have gone left) and 20 minutes later I was as confused as could be because I was on the right floor but I couldn't find the room number. I had to ask one of the housekeeping staff where the room was. The problem for me was that if you headed left off the entrance of the hotel it takes you past shops and to conference rooms. so it can seem you are headed in the wrong direction if you don't keep on going and see the turn off to the other wing of the hotel. So yeah, finding your room is not an easy task. At least it was for me. :cmaslol

no unfortunately I never got any pictures :cmas4 . I wish I would have whipped out my cell phone. However I do know that the stay was not comped or a reward, as T.K. used a mastercard or visa according to my manager (who is also a big fan). But I was thinking, don't they get paid after the show is done being aired? or are they just spending because they know they will be receiving the money soon?
Zack.:
They get paid after the finale aired, so my guess is that it's anticipatory spending. Mind you, second place still gets 25 grand, not to mention they may have changed jobs since the race started (perhaps TK got a promotion or something).
michael:
They get paid after the finale and all prizes are awarded after the race is finished I think.

Rumors are second-place prize for some seasons has been $25,000 or $50,000, still a nice chunk of money.
