yes i have tried splitting bids also. 4-3, 5-2, 3-4 yes i have the Entertainment Coupon rewards in my account also. i also signed up for the priceline alerts to where you set a price for a area and they email when someone has won at that price. i did it for $50 a night 3 1/2 stars in anaheim grove area and have gotten several emails that people have one recently. of course it doesnt tell you the dates that they won it for <_< of the last 2 years ive used priceline to bid in that area i don't think ive paid more then $55 a night. thats why i didnt want to go higher then that. although it's not really a big deal. i will go higher if i need to. i just like the fun in negoitating a good price lol
