:) oops actually had the dates incorrect, my dates in NYC are from the 10/30 - 11/03!!! Thanks again. Ps any idea when the hotel will get confirmation of the booking, as i'd like to just double check my booking has gone through?!?! I don't fancy walking the streets looking for somewhere!!

Started off with $290 - MSG + MTE :) $295 - MSG+MTE+MTW $300 - MSG+MTE+MTW+ESB $305 - MSG+MTE+MTW+ESB+TS $310 - MSG+MTE+MTW+ESB+TS+CPS :) For the weekend and the place, i'm very happy. just hope the hotel is cool. Thanks for your help and will be telling ALL my friends about this site!! LDN-BOY....

SUCCESS - :) thanks, guys. yep i knew the marathon & halloween parade were on...thanks again for all your help i think i've saved about 300 GBP.... Will post the result and strategy. Thanks again. LDN-BOY.

Worked it out, found the zones with 3* and less and then numbered the zones 1-6. Alas.....i went up to $300 using the strategy above but no joy. Will try to split the nights...Thurs/Fri & Sat/Sun. Any more ideas? LDN-BOY

thanks, again. i'm still a little confused....about the re-bid zones? so if i bid $140 for MTE MTW and TS, its rejected then i should bid $150 for a zone which doesn't have a 4* hotel, say Chelsea?? Please help?!? should i use the priceline hotel list as a guide?

Thanks for the welcome. In terms of where we stay we are not bothered, my thinking is that a 4* will be good in any area. As for splitting the bid rather not but as its a busy weekend, may consider it, just a little concerned about checking out 12:00 and not being able to check in before 14:00, do hotels let you leave bags post 9/11? Thanks. LDN-BOY

Hi Please can you advise me on my strategy for bidding for a hotel using Priceline. I realise its a mega busy weekend (Oct 28th - Nov 3rd) and i'm struggling to find a hotel in my price range. I would like to spend between $250 and $300 per night. I am flexible as long as its central, ie not in Brooklyn. In other posts i've seen the strategy of rebidding using the re-bid zones, is that advisable for this weekend? thanks, LDN-BOY
