Hello, I would like a 4* hotel in either ME, MW, UE, or UM. I bid yesterday at $99 and was rejected . The most I would like to bid is $140 (before taxes). The dates are May 15-17th, 2005. Would you please be so kind as to offer me a bidding stradegy? Note: I am eligible for federal government discounts and have put a hold on the Intercontinental Barclay for $208. This is just higher than I would like to pay. Do you know of any super deals with the government discount? Btw...what is the only 5* offered by priceline and about how much would it take to win the bid? Thanks in advance. This site is absolutely invaluable!
