John and Tami

Just wanted to update on some bids I've made to hopefully help other bidders. I used the PRICELINE link from this forum. I bid $70/nt on 5* strip north and got a no. Rebid adding an areas with no 5* hotels (near east strip) at $75/nt. That time I got a counter offer at $125. I did not buy it, so I do not know which hotel they offered. (Vdara is on sale on Expedia right now for $119/nt, though.) Anyway, I was hoping to then go back and add 4* to my search because I'd be fine with Treasure Island at $75/nt but it did not let me adjust anything else that time. Also, for the heck of it yesterday I tried 4* north strip at $43/nt and got a no. I tried $60 south strip 5* for the heck of it and also got a no. My notes are getting so long I thought I'd go ahead and share it since they countered.

On 6.16.09, used PRICELINE link from this forum. Bid $61 on 4* in downtown Denver. Rejected but came back with "add $17 to this offer and we'll try again". I needed the reservation done same day, so I did it and won at $78. It was the Hyatt, which was no surprise given all the feedback here.
