Started at SavingsBarn.com As always, this site helped me identify hotel on Hotwire. Got the Cambridge Suites (great reviews on Tripadvisor) for $73 US for 2 weekend nights. Hotel is on the PATH (underground walkway) so we don't care if it's cold and snowy!

I should have mentioned that I did my bidding starting at Savingbarn.com. I was successful for 12/26-12/28/06 for WDW Resort (Gaylord Palms) at $114. I had tried for 9 days with multiple areas added, was offered a rebid for add'l $22 and just did it to be done. Still saved a raft load!

Thanks for the advice. I did keep trying and finally got the Gaylord for $114 for 2 nights. I'm happy with that since their posted rates for Christmas week are way up there ($300+). I may have been a bit early but I didn't want to wait too long. Happy bidding...

Have been bidding for 7 days on Resort class hotel in Walt Disney World area for 12/26-28/06. Up to $91 but no success. Any suggestions? Is it too early? I do see some successful bids in this range. Thanks for the help!

It took 5 days of bidding but finally got a 4* in Copley/Back Bay for under $150. I think it's a great deal vs. prices available online for this weekend. We stayed at the Westin Copley last time in Boston, and Sheraton is in the same general vicinity. I bid $126, with just Copley area checked. Came back with offer to up it by $22, which I did, and I got the Sheraton.

Accepted first bid of$59 - for long US holiday weekend in Feb. Parking is pretty cheap here too since there is a public ramp right across the street.
