Great score Em_and_Pe!!!
Enjoy the Hilton's new million dollar pool!!!
The problem with this zone is the Radisson Resort comes up much more often than the Hilton. The Radisson is decent but definitely inferior to the Hilton.
I got this for the $35 for my parents awhile back...
wierd bidding on this one... Scranton Inn at Nichols Village
$45 failed for a 3-star... bid $35 for a 2.5-star just a second later and got upgraded?
I will try $35 that someone got it before, for that price, it would be a steal, I think ...
I am bidding Montreal for a friend...
I like to start each bid from scratch because I noticed we don't get the legit counteroffers on rebids...
So, my second bid on a 4*, I forget to add another zone ... and the bid goes through with just the same single zone and gets rejected normally.
I try it again, this time on 3*'s ... first bid $50 rejected. Second bid at $60 for just the same single zone ... also gets rejected normally. My third bid however, brings up the duplicate request screen.
Is Priceline now giving us two shots at each bid as long as you start over? :)
We needed to be at the Barcelo Maya Tropical July 5-10 for a wedding.
I was booking the vacation on cheapcarribbean.com and got prompted to enter a promo code....?
I did a google search and found 10%... after the code didn't work I contacted them .... I pasted their email response below.
Long story short ... I called in, made the reservation with TRV1003 and got the additonal 10% off of an already great deal!!!
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I'm so sorry to hear that you're having a problem with one of the
promo codes through our discount page. I've checked with
CheapCaribbean, and they now believe that you need to use the promo
code for phone reservations only. They are double-checking on that,
but if you'd like to make the reservation soon, you can just give 'em
a call. Hope that isn't too much of a problem.
Or - you could try the code "boomer" (without the quotes) and see if
that works. It is another promo code that they've given me for another
of my sites
Thanks for checking with me. Let me know if you have any other
questions, ok?
All the best,
XXXX

> Hey guys.... is this deal still valid ... I have tried a few times
following the instructions on specials listed and I am not getting the
10% off?

> Thanks!!!

I chatted with the night auditor for an hour ... he had just moved there from London and was considering moving to Phoenix ... he comped me and my guests all free breakfast buffets the next day!!!

through barn as always...
got this for my folks on there way to Atlantic City...
first bid at $40 for Syracuse east and Univeristy gave me a counter to add $12 ... I bid over a couple days ... $43, $44, $45, $46, $47 and finally hit at $48
My mom called to request non-smoking rooms ... they said they only assign queen-bed rooms to PL guests ... she had no problem with it.
biddingforhotel's post have been a great help in this area ....!!!
Got this for my parents ... they have a free night in Atlantic City on Sunday and are making a weekend out of it.
I tried to get the summerhill suites in Plymouth Meeting for $35 failed.
Tried here next at $30 and got a counter to add $8. Scored at $32!!!
Hotwire listed this for $42.
I was worried I'd end up winning the Holiday Inn ... it was the lowest on PL Vacations.
I know they'd love the free breakfast at the Amerisuites instead!!!
I haven't been contacted by the hotel yet either!!!
I think thesqueegeekid might be abusing this a little! Not that I am one to look a gift horse in the mouth, and that I wouldn't take advantage of it, booking 10 rooms might be alerting the system to this error. Really, unless you are going to have a family reunion, why do something that might give them cause to not honour the reservations you really only need?
Anyway, I think they figured it out. Tried looking again, and the special rate is gone.
abusing this a little? ... sorry guys didn't mean to ... it was finally a mistake I could take advantage of!!!
I missed out on this one I posted a couple years ago ... http://www.betterbidding.com/index.php?sho...=7306&hl=westin
I got four rooms, my brother booked four and a friend booked just one!!!
All August 12-19. My brother and I get to celebrate both our Aug birthdays in NYC :)
Also, for the person buying 10 rooms... Are you re-selling them?
I won't sell them ... BUT I will definitely pass them along here on the board as soon as I know we won't need them all (most likely we won't!).
I just checked and the $26.00 rooms are gone!! The only thing showing is the 24.90 rate so you better hurry folks!!
They're back now ... the $26.00 rooms .... while booking I noticed them gone as well ... tried again and they were back again.
10 rooms booked now from Aug 12-19!!
Thanks again Gagnee!!! :)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
EDIT: .... gone again .... weird?
Note: It stated that "non-smoking rooms" were unavailable on both stays but for this rate I'll grin and bear it!!
No worries Gagnee ... the whole hotel is non-smoking!!!
