AaronJB-

Thanks for the suggestions. maybe i'll try HOTWIRE...

I was hoping to get 2 or 1 double beds rooms.

3* for $100 is fine with me . we dont really need to get 4*. Mainly i just wanted stay within that $100 range.

I agree that $75 winning bid may have been for different travel dates, although i received the notice yesterday. so i tried to bid on the same day.

Hi-

I tried bidding on priceline for 2 rooms, for 5 girls get away wkend for 7/22/11-7/24/11 in NMA -river north last night but i did not have any luck!

here is what I did:

I started with 4* and bid $75, then I added franklin, increased to $85, then added hyde park, added lincoln park, added mid way airport north and in the process, I also went down to 3.5*, and 3*, but at the end my last bid was at $85, still got rejected.

the reason for my staring bid @ $75 was because yesterday I got an email from priceline showing someone getting a winning bid for 3* in NMA-north river for $75!! I do not want to overbid.

Please help!! what do you suggest that I should do next? wait till tonight or get the other girls to bid? or continue with my bid and change/add other areas... not sure if it's risky since the other area i add may have 3*...

do you think the inventory is running low? I thought it may be better to wait and they would want to sell their leftover inventories??

appreciate any input ASAP as time is getting close!!
