I actually was trying to bid 7/14/11-7/18/11, but found the Thurs, 7/14/11 was giving me trouble. I eliminated that day, and bid $130 per night. I was immediately countered at $165, ignored the counter and continued bidding in $5 increments using the many free re-bid zones available. I was accepted at $150. I was then given the option to extend my visit. I put in my Thursday date, 7/14/11. I was countered with an offer of $201 per room per night. I accepted that figuring there was some value to not having to change hotels, (I am traveling with my husband & 16 year old daughter.), and allowing my daughter privacy. As always, I used your link to PRICELINE.
