Used Priceline BetterBidding.com link "Advanced Purchase Rate" through HolidayInn.com would be $80 so it's a decent saving. now I'm done booking Hotels for our week-long stay in Tennesse :) :)

Total charges with taxes come out to $172.42 compared to $375.64 it would have cost if it was booked through Radisson Online Reservation. Used PRICELINE link

Used the new PRICELINE link. Listed price on their website is $142 :)

First bid at $45 was accepted. Cheapest listed on their website is $79 so it's a decent saving.

Started with $57 downtown.. rejected Added Calgary North.. accepted $64 (equivalent to CAD$62, listed hotel price on Marriott website is CAD$149) :)

Was trying for a 3* hotel with no such luck and decided to go for a 2* instead (as it looks like the only 3* available in this area would have been Holiday Inn, not exactly a 3* hotel in my book). At the end, I'm happy with the decision. Listed price on the website would have been $74.99 for a standard room so a $35 for a mere 1 night stay (on our way home) is def. a bargain.

Yes I did. Thank you for creating this forum! I've learned a great deal from reading this forum. For all Canadian out there, I have no problems bidding through Priceline using my Canadian issued Visa card with a Canadian billing address. HTH :)

I initially started by looking at a 4* Hotel: $48 failed $50 failed $52 failed $54 failed At this point, I decided to add a 3* Hotel on my search but lower my price point: $40 accepted
