Hi, I'm new to this board and Priceline, so I want to ask for some tips on getting a good deal. I'm looking to go to Chicago on 12/6 - 12/8 and would like to stay in the River North area. I have placed bids at 4-stars at 65, 77, 82, and 88 and have been rejected. I placed bids at 3.5-stars at 75, 82, 89, and 93 and all have been rejected. Am I looking too soon? Should I wait a couple of weeks and try again? If I can't get a good deal, then I will stay in the burbs and take the train. But I prefer to stay at River North. Thanks, Dave
