I am going to Las Vegas on 1/9 thru 1/12 (Friday thru Monday) with my brother and his friend, it is their first time and they're turning 21 that weekend, however a week after book really cheap flights there we realized that it is the Consumer Electronics Convention weekend and hotel rates are ridiculous... we have back up booked the Belagio @ the Poker rate for two nites 1/10 & 1/11, but I don't want to stay up all nite on 1/9 and risk not checking in on 1/10 in the morning. I tried Pricelining on your link, for the 5* Strip South, of which your Ticker list shows only THEHotel @ Mandalay Bay, I have used the Convention Center, Fremont, Henderson, LAS, Nellis, and West Strip zones for rebid, tried $95 first, i was countered $180, but i denied, tried $110, $120, $130, $140, $150 & $160, but all got denied. I won't choose Strip North, because we don't want to be off the Strip and end up @ the Trump, but certainly don't mind staying @ the Venetian or Palazzo. Any suggestion anyone on what to do to get 5* on this busy weekend @ a reasonable price or should I try again and if countered just accept the counter offer? Thanks!

Sorry, I gave credit to the wrong person, lol, i was really out of it yesterday! Thanks Khc82..

Forgot to indicate the dates, I am checking in on 12/12/08 and checking out 12/14/2008

Just won a 4* bid to the Marriott Gaslamp Quarter in San Diego for $93 a nite, tried 10 rebids to get this rate. I also want to thanks JJLL for her input as that helped me with my bid. I also used your PRICELINE link to book this hotel. :)

I just won a 4 Star bid for $90 a nite at Downtown Providence from 10/17 through 10/19... the ongoing rate is $259 a night.. seems to be a good deal!!! We got the Westin hotel, great location and amenities. We used your PRICELINE link!!

I am planning to a weekend getaway with some friends from LA in San Diego, I'm from the East Coast. I was just wondering how far in anticipation is it best to start bidding on Priceline? I don't want to bid too early and pay more than what I would pay if I bid later, any suggestions?? Thanks, Wes

I am new to this discussion board, I wanted to make others aware of a great successful bid I got on PRICELINE for the weekend of Sept. 26, 1 night, for $150.00 at the Marriott Marquis on Times Square. I am new to this site and unaware of the links here, but going forward I will use your PRICELINE links to place my bids!!
