Not exactly what I was aiming for but can't complain.

Arriving late from UK so need a night to recuperate and refresh. All ready had the Holiday Inn (cancelable) at $64 all in but wanted to undercut that and get a free breakfast.

Saw that the 2.5* Country Inn and Suites may be available at $49. Historically this is around $50 ish.

Bid 2.5* Elizabeth for $43.00 Rejected but countered with add $12 more (as expected).

No free redbids at this star level so as I want a hotel near to EWR I added EWR as another area.
Upped my bid to $46 (lowball as I've time to spare)
and

Hey presto!

So I undercut my HI reservation but did not get the free breakfast
